So I went with Rigid lights in my fog pockets. I used the following:

Diode Dynamics Raptor Fog Bracket

Rigid D-XL Pro Hyperspots using Upfitter 2 switched with the highbeans using a relay harness from The Retrofit Source.

Rigid D-SS Driving using Upfitter 1 when bout as a pair only one side has the side LEDs

Rigid SR-M Diffused Driving using Upfitter 3, I burn these all the time, the amber color is very close to the
marker lights. I used a longer SS carriage bolt and double nut to get these to line up with the other lights

Great coverage, the D-XL's light pattern is not blocked by the bezel even though they are close.

Do you happen to have any photos showing how far the hyper spot throws light?

No worries. I appreciate the pictures and am really impressed with how far the hyperspots project what looks to be useable light. Thanks for sharing.

There’s a tree in the first photo almost 1/2 mile out that lit up well. The hyperspots will throw light out to about a mile but it’s not of any real use. It reflects off signs at that distance but that’s about it.

Very nice
Could you post a link to the back lights ?
I’d like to do that

Was it a plug and play kit with the wire harness to go to the uplifer switch ?

I didn’t get the harness, instead I ran thru the frame back to Upditter 4. I plan on using them more for trailer hook up and area lighting. But if i need them for backing up, I’ll just flip the switch.

I ran the left light wire in 3/8 flex thru the hitch and spliced with the right. It took a little work with a fish tape to pull the flex thru the frame but it’s a clean look. Just need 25 feet of 3/8 flex and 16/18 gauge red and black wire.

Very nice work
That’s exactly how I would do it .so it looks like the light mounts up using the hole right next to the tow hook . So no drilling it looks like . Correct ?

I will also go to uplifter 4 since 1,2,3 are.
Being used up front with the fog lights

Again thanks!

Yes I used the existing holes in the bumper. I had to make one hole in the wheelwell liner for a ziptie. No new holes for the front lights. So far my 18 has only factory holes in the aluminum and no cut wires. Think I might have to drill some in the bed for my recovery box though.

That's a great setup and I'm happy to see that the Dually XL can be squeezed in there with the D-SS lights.

If anyone would like to go with a similar setup, please reach out and we can help get you setup!

Did you buy the mount for the SR-Ms or did you fabricate it yourself? I’m having a hard time finding a way to mount mine correctly.

I used the Diode Dynamics bracket and bought a longer stainless carriage bolt. I put two washers and a nut before the fog light bracket to adjust the height.

Maybe I’m missing something here but how did that get the Rigid logo on the SR-ms to be facing the correct way. On mine they are upside down. I sincerely apologize if I’m missing something obvious here.

Here’s a picture of what I’m talking about.

Ok, I got it now, I switched the cover 180 degrees even though Rigid said not too. Two Allen screws in the back allow for removal of the lens. Rotate and reinstall.
