Lighting experts, need some help.

So, I have an ADD Stealthfighter front bumper on the way. It takes a 30” bar and a cube on each wing. The obvious and easy choice is Rigid… BUT I’m not looking to spend that kind of money at this point. Here are some questions (I have the factory off-road capable bumper). I like the fog light integration being that is utilizes the headlight switch. Is there anything I can do (aftermarket cubes) to retain the stock capabilities but “upgrade “ the light a bit with a cube? Is a special harness required? Also, and value minded brands that would be recommended? Please excuse my ignorance on the matter, don’t know much about lights!

Actually Rigid isn't the most popular choice these days. Rigid is losing more and more sales to Baja Designs and Diode Dynamics because they just make better lights. Baja Designs is the GO TO in the off-road world because their lights are just ROCK SOLID. Diode Dynamics is a killer option also because you can spend a little less $$ and get some bright pods.

When it comes to LIGHT BARS though, Baja Designs hands down.

For that bumper you'll want a Baja Designs OnX6+ ARC Bar (30"). The ARC is a curved bar

You can get this in a single output OR a dual output. The dual output integrates 2 harness connections as it'll control 2 different lights. The outside 10" segments are on 1 switch, inside segments on a separate switch. This is great so you can combine amber (yellow) and white outputs

30" ARC: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/led-light-bars/baja-designs/onx6/arc-series/

30" ARC Dual Control: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-designs-onx6-30-arc-dual-control-amber-white-led-light-bar/

You can also do a Rigid Industries RDS-Series Bar: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/led-light-bars/rigid-industries/rds-series-pro/

or a Rigid Industries Radiance+ Bar (which has RGB Backlighting): https://www.4x4truckleds.com/rigid-...gle-row-curved-white-backlight-radiance-plus/

Then you can also add in a pair of pod lights (1 on each side).

Available in a SPORT or PRO (pros are brighter).

But again if you were sticking with Rigid, their D-Series is the go-to: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/led-auxiliary-lights/rigid-industries/d-series-pro/d-series-pro/

NOW. When it comes to your factory "fog light" switch, which technically you'd do "aftermarket" since you are going to buy that from Ford (and then program it in with FORSCAN), we make a harness actually to connect to your lights.

Rigid Industries D-Series: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/crysta...il-pair-2021-ford-bronco-w-hd-modular-bumper/

So you could then turn them on from the factory switch.

Let me know when you are ready to order. We ALSO sell ADD but sounds like you already got that order in, we could have worked up a "package deal". But anyway, we can definitely get you taken care of on the lights. It's what we do best!

BTW, we make harnesses for Baja Designs and Rigid Industries light bars to make installation easy for you. Plug and play essentially with the upfitter terminals ready to crimp onto our harnesses

Thank you for the great reply. I’ll reach out , I already have OEM fogs with the “off-road-capable bumper . So one of your harnesses could be used for the lights on the wings to adapt BD or Rigid, without Forscan (assuming here).

Correct. In your case the factory fog light connection is H11 so you'd use these harnesses instead

Being a budget friendly person myself and a do it yourself kind of person. I can tell you of my experience with one brand , Nilight. Find them on amazon , buy a bracket and find the size for that area. You will spend A LOT less money and still get a very good light. I've had two on my kayak trailer for 4 years , and not one single issue yet with them.
