Capable Bumper OEM fogs - alignment?

[Dabba]

Get yellow. Much better in poor visibility, which is why you turned on your fogs!! @Diode Dynamics does indeed sell all the same versions in SINGLE lamp for the 'inCapable' bumper. Fantastic. Four bolts each side to pull the bumper, easy plug and play after that. Even an accountant can do it.

Note that alignment is a drag, you can't get to the adjustment screws once bumper is back on. Not much you can do about it.

Well that is a pain in the ass. If I go with the 2 pair I assume one can use the regular fog light and other needs an aux switch?

Was debating buying the pair of s3 kit and then adding the 3rd light and bracket when I get the modular. How hard is it to install? Do you need to take the bumper off?

We recommend removing the capable bumper to install the fogs. It makes it a LOT easier (and it's easy to take the bumper off).

The mod bumper does NOT require you to remove the bumper though to install the fogs.

There's only the one hole for fogs. Which is why I call it the 'inCapable' bumper. Unless you bolt them on. Yuck....

I think I have line on a mod bumper. Your wiring harnesses for the 3 sets of lights have one that use the native fog switch and the other 2 to aux I assume?

No. Our fog kits include our all-in-one upfitter harness. That places each pair of lights on it's own upfitter.

If you want to connect it to a factory fog circuit you'd need to buy that pigtail separate, as there are lots of varieties of them depending on what kind of truck you have and what lights.

If you get our Triple Fog Kit for the capable bumper and you had a capable bumper from the factory, you'll use one of 2 pigtails to connect 1 pair of lights to the factory fog

I'm kind of confused. I'm planning on doing this with 2x ss3 and 1x ssc2 (I'm going to get a mod bumper):

https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-...ckets-for-2021-ford-bronco-hd-modular-bumper/

Would the pigtail you linked connect to one of the ss3 upfitters to use the factory switch? And then I can connect the remaining two upfitters to aux switches? If I wanted could I even put 2 sets of lights on the factory switch?

Our fog kits DO NOT include a factory pigtail to connect to a fog switch. The reason for this is because modular bumper equipped trucks do not have fog switches. So a pigtail for this is include included. The harness we provide in our kit is our triple fog light wiring harness. This places each pair of lights on it's own upfitter switch.

With that said, we realized that many people WANTED to install fog lamp switches and program the circuit in their truck. So we started creating fog light switches for this purpose as well. But they are sold separate.

And then we ALSO realized that customers, such as yourself, were upgrading from a plastic or capable bumper to the modular bumper and wanted to utilize their existing fog light switch. So we started offering pigtails for this. They are sold separate and are not part of the fog kit.

So you'd want our triple fog kit

or

And the fog light wiring harness (which allows you to connect 1 pair of lights to your factory fog circuit): https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-...wires-w-backlight-tap-h11-h8-h9-880-881-pair/

Pairs 2 and 3 of the kit would be connected to your upfitter switches.

Two sets of lights on the factory switch is NOT street legal, so we do not support that out of the box. WITH THAT SAID, there is nothing stopping you from doing that. It's your truck after-all and if you decide you want to run 4 fog lights... we can't stop you But out of the box our system is not setup that way for legality reasons.

IF you wanted to do that... you would just need a splitter such as this one: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-dynamics-deutsch-dt-4-pin-splitter-single/

One per side.

This would allow the factory fog circuit to control 2 lights on each side technically. AGAIN, that's not street legal though.

Okay understood. I'm surprised I figured if 2 pairs were sae I could do it but I'll probably avoid that then. One final question. What is the difference between the two triple sets you linked? Just the bracket type?
