[QUOTE="4x4TruckLEDs.com, post: 1616499, member: 24442"] So here is our demo truck [IMG]https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/131171657_10218727761080568_8827396655660020049_o.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-3&_nc_sid=730e14&_nc_ohc=qw2VmVOo3GgAX_BSRyo&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=6ecd16db333c6fdecb65b8463b8954a4&oe=60839787[/IMG] And here is how everything works and what everything is for Our Triple Fog Light Kit ([URL]https://www.4x4truckleds.com/2017-ford-raptor-triple-fog-light-kit-w-baja-designs-lights-build-your-kit/[/URL]) is down low. I've got Squadron Pro W/C Squadron Pro D/C Squadron Pro W/C, Amber As my fogs. I use the ambers when it's snowing out or raining. The Driving/Combos when I'm by myself on the road and need more light (or off-roading). And my regular WC are used when i'm driving on the road.
