[QUOTE="Oldfart, post: 1519140, member: 25546"] That test in the video isn't fair to Baja Designs. The BD is the ONLY SAE light in the bunch. To be SAE legal, by definition, is going to drastically cut your light performance. That's what makes it street legal. To be fair, the BD to compare should be a wide cornering in Pro, Racer, or Sport, depending what price levels you are looking at. I have a set of the SAE lights. They are more of a fill, close and wide light. When I first used them I expected more throw, but they do go wide as hell and are real nice for back roads to see the shoulders and any critters that are coming across. I ended up liking them as I run mine most of the time. I used an N-Fab bracket and mounted 3 BD Squadrons with no blocking issues. The SAE are on the outside, Combo Sport in the middle, Racer Spots on inside, no blocking issues at all. I agree with Smurf that the Sport Combo's are a damn impressive all around light for back roading, just remember to shut them off when another car comes towards you. I got everything from [B][SIZE=4][URL='https://www.fordraptorforum.com/members/nick-apollo-optics.1314/']Nick@Apollo-Optics[/URL][/SIZE][/B] Also OP, I don't think you are going to have any luck linking to the high beam switch. In talking to Ford Tech One, he advised me it will end up bricking your your body control module. I was ready to set up a relay on mine to do the same as you want, but apparently these trucks don't like it. [ATTACH=full]149510[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
