^^ Very nice! One advantage of this mount system is the ability to splay the light pattern if desired

Saw these and was shocked how bright they were. Really improved the gaping holes in the bumper to.

How much output do you really need? Does the $1000 fog kit become too powerful to even have it on on the street with oncoming traffic?

It depends. The Baja Designs kit utilizes the S2 light which, when aimed appropriately, can be used on the street. The Rigid kits actually feature an SAE approved fog light which can be used on-road as a fog light.

The rest of the lights are for off-road use. Or back-road use. Just don't use the brighter off-road lights in traffic.

You are not "supposed" to use the BD OnX6 lights in traffic, but they sure come in handy when some jerk does not turn their brights down... :D

Just installed the Rough Country Triple 2" cube kit in my 18 SCREW. Kit is only $299 which is quite the bargain compared to the $1000 kits I've seen from other vendors. The brackets and cubes appeared to be of good quality and relatively easy to fit and adjust.

I installed each pair to a separate upfitter switch so I can control the exact output of light desired. Very pleased so far, I'll get some light output pics later

Wanting to wire all 3 pairs of lights to the same uplifter switch. Figure I’ll use a 10 amp switch. Wanted to know how people have used / modified the harnesses. Saw that someone suggested removing the relay and wiring directly from the lights to the uplifter switch wires.
