[QUOTE="4x4TruckLEDs.com, post: 1519570, member: 24442"] So the main difference between the Baja SAE and Diode SAE is that Baja designed their lights to be used as FOG LIGHTS. That's why they have the lumen they have. They were not trying to make the brightest fog light out there, because they want it used as a FOG LIGHT. Your fog lights should NOT over-power your headlights. The diode SAE lights are too bright for fogs in my opinion. They put optics in them to make the beam pattern defined, but in reality it's REALLY bright for use on roads. It's going to overpower your headlights, and then they are not even fogs. So for my $$ I go with the Baja SAE for street use FOG lights. IF you want brighter lights, well Baja sells REALLY bright lights that can do the job. Their Squadron Pros put out 4900 lumen each. But like I said, these are FOG lights. We offer a triple fog light kit with your choice of Baja Lights. Our kits include our USA Made Brackets which give you the most control/adjustability of your lights out of any other bracket on the market. They come with a lifetime warranty as well. This is important because when you start picking/choosing the lights, each one is going to have a different spot you aim them. If you do the Squadron SAE you can aim them a bit higher then you would a Squadron Pro driving/combo. It's got that cut-off. But for a fog light you want it aimed below your headlights cut-off (and not to overpower your headlights). For off-roading you can then put in the driving/combos and spots, and even wide cornering. But you can aim them wherever you like. So for a 2nd pair you could do some Wide Cornerings aimed outwards a bit and high, to really illuminate the area. Or maybe a driving/combo which gives you both spot or wide cornering. What I'd recommend is reach out to us (email, PM, text, live chat, FB, phone, etc...) and we'll help you build a lighting setup that fits YOUR driving. These are our fog kits that we offer: [URL]https://www.4x4truckleds.com/vehicle-specific/ford-f-150/2017-2018-f-150-raptor/triple-fog-light-kits/[/URL] All completely customizable.
