1: Driving only
2. Headlights only
3: Amber Fogs
Sorry my fogs are unhooked bc I'm rewiring everything. As you can see, the driving pattern is similar to headlights except they don't have the horizontal cut off. They're pretty ineffective they way mine are set up now, they need to point more to the sides to be of benefit. That's why I think spots angled out with Fog's and maybe some ambers too would be a killer combo. Kind of depends on you intent and need for light. Hope this helps give a visual.IMG_3043.JPG IMG_3044.JPG IMG_3042.JPG

Pictures like this are very helpful. Thanks Snowdog!

Those driving lights are great. It may just be the picture but your amber looks very orange as opposed to the typical yellow.

Rigid will be closer to DOT/SAE orange if that is what you are after. Baja Designs amber is more yellow as they are not DOT approved nor do they care to be, they are a performance amber designed to cut through dust and no where near DOT/SAE orange.

What rick said, they are very orange, that picture is pretty accurate. I don't think you can beat Baja Design, I just had these Rigids already so it was a waste not to use them.

Agreed. I’ve decided to go with Baja Designs. Still fine tuning the exact setup with regards to lens and color combos.

The Baja Designs are the best, and they are priced that way. Honestly, I think they may be overkill for what you are describing, but more light/performance is not going to be a bad thing. I don't think there's another bracket/mounting option that looks anywhere as clean as the FRL. The group I had install mine said it was hands-down the best kit they had seen. Just my .02...
