Hi All,

Just got my Rigid 360 round series lights and brackets in from specialty perf parts (great shop).

I went with the following for the triple fogs

- 1 pair SAE
- 2 pair drives

I also went with a pair of spots for the A-pillar.

Question: for the triples, what does everyone suggest as far as where to place the SAE's? I was thinking as the middle pair to keep the drives on outside due to wide beam.

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with a similar setup?

Thanks in advance!

The guys at Specialty Performance Parts have been awesome. They recommended a middle mounting since the drives are wide beam.

I was curious what others may have been doing in addition. Only reason i am thinking of putting SAE to outside is I think the backlighting would look better with the drives next to each other. But it becomes a function over optics decision....

I mounted the SAE in the middle, drive outside and spot inside. Worked great.

Anyone interested in these I sold the truck and won't need on the '21.

I put mine on the outsides. Probably not a whole ‘lotta difference where you out them. But figured the spread of the SAE may be best there. I wanted my ambers in the middle as they are the odd set and put the driving combos inside, as the spot portion of the light is the most narrowest. Think I will put on WC lenses or the old SAE lenses Inhabe on the combo lights. Don’t use them as much, once I installed the S8.

Ok, install is done :) Cant wait for it to get dark and for the first offroad. Went with SAE on outside, Drives in middle and inner. Spots on A-Pillar

Here are some pics. I am posting these separate from a follow-up post. Only question i have for anyone with the rigid backlit....are they this dim in the day? Can barely see the backlight during daylight. One pic with nothing on. Other pic with marker lights and backlights on.

You may need them… lol
The included fog lights with the 801a package are just the 1/2 size Rigid SRM series. It appears one is an SAE and the other off-road is either a flood or a driving. Either way, the SAE in that light series is under 1000 lumens I think and the other maybe around 1600 lumens. Your 360 series is 3100 each.
So we have one coming as well and plan to release a replacement fog bracket set and fog kits ASAP. Though you can most likely only fit 2 on each size, we still plan to attempt to fit the 360 series, as well as the Radiance and scene.
if you have rear Lights, it appears the rear bumper is the same. So they will
Probably fit.
