Put some Amber s1s in the outside corner of your bumper pockets. The more light the more refraction.... Regardless of color.

I got S1s clear in the outside corner and SAE ambers and they work well in fog and blizzard conditions. The S1s are pointed down and out.

A question for the experts as it is relative to this thread - anyone ever mount a fog light behind a grate / grill?

My truck has these mounted where fogs would mount, still wish to install but wondering if anyone’s had experience with this and how bad the light quality ended up being. Thanks very much.

People mount lights behind grills all the time. There would be light loss/blocked light being behind those grills. The best would be unobstructed lights, but it comes down to personal preference and intended use.

If you want to keep the grills and install lights, I would run a quality light. Like a baja design pro light. Not standard lights. Need more lumens to shine around the grills.

So Rigid Fog Triple Light kit may not be satisfactory as that’s the set inwas looking for. I’ll cross check the lumens and see how they compare. Appreciate you taking time to reply.

I ran the Rigid set up before I did a frame cut bumper. Rigid are no longer a good light like they were in the past. I would look at baja.
