So in case you're living under a rock we've got some pretty exciting news. RPG Off-Road is currently in production on their 3rd Brake Light/Chase Lights! This is FANTASTIC news for everybody!
They announced this on their FB/Instagram pages recently and naturally we're going full steam ahead with these on our website. We've already placed a stocking order for these (Gen1, Gen2 & Gen3) and are taking pre-orders.
For those who are unaware, there is another popular 3rd brake light out on the market which is a really great product as well. The problem was the company's been distant for a year or so and nobody can get ahold of them or get product. RPG decided to make their own brake light in-house which will help fill that need in the off-road community. A lot of us have been waiting for a killer brand like RPG Off-Road to start making these.
The RPG Off-Road 3rd Brake Light/Chase Light is one of the best 3rd brake lights with integrated chase lights on the market for your F-150 Raptor. The billet aluminum chase lights are manufactured in-house at RPG Off-Roads facility here in the USA. They are finished with a black cerakote to ensure they last the life of your truck. The brake lights feature integrated red led marker lights along with 3x Baja Designs S2 lights. The outer two Baja Designs lights act as chase lights and are controlled from your switch panel while the center S2 light acts as a cargo light/reverse light.
SPECIFICATIONS
We allow you, the customer, to choose what lighting setup works best for you. Amber lights are required for most nighttime events while white lights are good for lighting up trails behind you or campsites.
OUR RECOMMENDATION: We recommend going with S2 Pro, Driving/Combo Amber on the outside and S2 Pro, Wide Cornering in the center. This gives you a Spot and Wide Cornering Lens (Driving/Combo) in Amber which is perfect to act as a chase light, allowing drivers behind you to see you on the trails at night. The center light in a Wide Cornering is a great wide pattern to help illuminate behind you at a camp site, going in reverse or looking for cargo. You can opt for the S2 Sport, which will save you some money but be less bright.
ANTENNA MOUNT
The RPG Off-Road 3rd Brake Light/Chase Light has an integrated NMO Antenna mount. This allows you to install a standard NMO antenna on top of the brake light for radios. The brake light includes an NMO extension cable which connects to the back-side of the brake light and can be ran to your radio of choice. This cable is pre-terminated with a PL-269 connector to plug right into the back of your radio. If you choose not to run an antenna you can simply install a generic NMO antenna cap to cover this up.
WIRING HARNESSES
The wiring harnesses are made here in the USA by LVJ Motorsports AND are designed to work perfectly with your brake light, giving you control over your S2 lights. There are three wiring harness options to choose from
Here are some production photos (these are the Gen3 w/camera ones being made). They are available for the Gen1, Gen2 & Gen3 Raptor (including regular F150 trims as well).
Available here for pre-order: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/rpg-off-road/
Again, please expect a 4-6 week lead time as they are STLL in production (as of this post dated 1/23/2024).
