    That looks awesome!
  2. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    I hear you. Unfortunately, my budget doesn't allow me to swap everything out I want to do at one time. I have a lot of plans to get it to the way I want it to look, this was just a single step on a long road.
  3. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    I would prefer stainless steel but the chrome works for me. I want to do 6 roof lights that are the same or similar and a few other things. To me it makes it look more retro or vintage.
  4. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    LOL yes! I figured since I put the USMC badges on I would just keep going big!
  5. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    I just wanted to add, The hardware with the light will NOT fit any of the Ditch light mounts I looked at. The 3 options I could figure out to mount these lights were to 1: drill out the bracket mount to fit the oversized bolt. 2: Build a custom mounting bracket or 3: swap out the bolt and half...

    Not so far. I had it on the highway going 70 and they didn't whistle or shake at all.

    I went to Ace Hardware and swapped out the bolts for a size that fit the light mounts. I used metal washers and rubber washers to make sure it all fit correctly. I also used rubber grommets with retaining clips on the metal flex so it wouldn't pop out.

    A friend had some 6 inch KC covers, but the were slightly to small. But the covers were for newer LEDs so maybe that's why.

    Here is the link. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004L0AAQY?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title I didn't want to spend a ton of money if I didn't like them. And I figured I could always gut them and replace them with LEDs. I also clear coated them inside and out to reduce rust.
  10. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    Damn that thing looks tough. I have owned a lot of Hot Rods and put a few old school police spot lights in them. I had though about putting one on the Bronco, but the way the dash on the Bronco is, it didn't look like it would fit without major surgery. But I would love to see if you can make it...

    Thanks. I thought about the KC covers, but actual KC lights where 10 times more expensive than these lol. I might make covers for them at some point.

    I have been debating getting the mini Bull Bar a lot. I love the look, just not sure. I think I want to do an old school roof Light bar first.
  13. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    I just installed them Saturday and haven't had time to do anything more than make sure everything worked properly. But I will be sure to keep an eye on it. Originally I was going to swap out the halogens with LEDs but I really wanted to get them installed, so maybe I will swap them out later.
  14. Adding Retro Ditch lights to my Heritage Bronco

    I just installed vintage style ditch lights to my 2024 Bronco Heritage to give it more of a vintage feel. I looked at endless videos and photos of everyone running the wiring along the windshield. I actually wanted the vintage look of the metal wire covers to show. I was a bit hesitant to...
