For anyone confused about the wiring in our fog kits.

I haven't received mine yet, but curious for when I do -- With the included length of the harnesses, what path did you guys intend for the wires to be ran? Do they go along frame rails to firewall, etc? Thanks!

I ran alongside the factory harness, there is plenty of wire length.

With the included wiring you do have a few options for routing. We prefer to route the wiring along OEM harnesses under the hood for a clean install. The harnesses are fairly long so you can route them as desired for the most part.

Thank You,

Installed Onx6 hi-power lower grill kit yesterday

So I installed the lower grill kit yesterday. Much thanks to Nick at Apollo Optics for helping me with this purchase. The kit was easy to install.

How does it perform? Amazing! It lights up everything- like you have a switch to turn on the sun! Almost 12,000 lumens through that little 10" bar! I love it.

I also have the S8 30" light bar on order, which sounds much more complicated to install. We'll see...

Okay, pics: I initially posted some night shots taken with my cell phone, but to get a more accurate representation of the BD light bar, I used my DSLR in manual mode, so nothing about the exposure changed except the light source.

The first nighttime shot is low beams; the second is high beams; the third is the Onx6 light bar with the high beams; and, the fourth is the Onx6 only. Hope this helps everyone see what the BD light bar adds.

Anyone with good nighttime pics of the 30" S8 behind the grill. I have searched and can't find. Debating on this vs the 10" behind the lower grill.

I have the S8 30" arriving tomorrow (according to UPS) and will hopefully get it installed pretty quick. I'll have the Onx6 and the S8 to compare and will take some nighttime shots w/my DSLR camera. In the meantime, here is a thread with some S8 30" kit night shots:
