[QUOTE="4x4TruckLEDs.com, post: 1338574, member: 24442"] To answer your question. So yes, you can wire in the back light feature of the Radiance lights so that they come on when your truck is on. You'll just tap that wire into the fuse panel for your running lights. OR what most guys do, just tap them into a circuit that turns on when the truck is on. You can then utilize 3 of your upfitters to control the white light. And no, they are not DOT approved. Rigid has, what they call, their "SAE" light which conforms to the DOT/SAE regulations for forwarding facing light. Basically it just means that when it comes to forward facing light they are under the maximum amount allowed. There are no LAWS that dictated a requirement for fogs, therefore, there is no DOT/SAE approved fog lights, as it's optional equipment. With that said... Rigid's D-Series SAE lights and their Radiance line, along with the Baja Designs S2 lights, all fall under the candlepower ratings for forwarding facing light. So you'd be fine. The radiance looks cool with the back light, but honestly the spot lights built in offer no real useable light. It's more of a cool feature to have. If you want some REAL output you'll either want the D-Series lights from Rigid or the Baja Designs lights. THOSE offer some REAL lights that you can actually get some great use out of. The downside, no cool back light feature. Let me know if we can help you pick out a solution. We stock/sell both Baja Designs and Rigid products. We also have available for the Gen2s, our SPP Triple Fog Light Kits. These brackets are made right here in america from stainless steel and are some of the most rugged brackets on the market. They don't have any tabs on them that can bend easily and our kits include our custom made all-in-one wiring harness to make it easy to install them using your existing upfitters.
