    I am looking at the same setup for my fogs. Why did you choose the Pros over the Max's? Anything helps, thanks!

    if I didn’t buy the rigid d series pros I probably wouldve bought the max. I have a sr5 and did the diy rigid d series fogs. I should’ve did more research

    Good to know. I have Baja Designs Non-SAEs on my 2015 and feel they're too bright for use unless I'm driving in a narly storm. This time around looking for SAEs but can't decide which ones to get. Information overload.

    Good call. I'm a fan of Ambers, especially out here in Colorado with our winter storms. My BD Squadrons definitely saved me in a storm a few years back.

    Heck yeah we appreciate the support!
    Yeah a set of standard squadrons are not only a tad too bright, but they also don't have any upward cutoff! The cutoff of a proper fog light will allow it to project further down road and not reflect light back into your eyes.

    From a strictly tech perspective the Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro or Max will outperform the BD SAEs. However, if you're a BD purist their newest squadron SAE will perform very well, especially if you're benching them against OEM. We have them all here at Hotshot Offroad, and would be happy to help if you have any questions. Feel free to message me, or you can also give us a buzz at 406-936-0206

    Our team will not be running as many sales this year in 2024.

    The next discount period from our retail website will be July 4th, 2024.

    You can always contact @memario1214 for a price quote as authorized dealers might be able to offer a better deal than retail!

    @memario1214 Looking to order a set as one of my OEM fogs went out, can't send you a PM since I don't have enough post but would like a quote on the Pros w/backlite. Would you mind sending me a message?

    I just installed SS3 Pro for ditch lights and SS3 Max for fog lights. Love the look and output so far.

    Added "The Bright Box Fogster" from Aspire Auto Accessories over the weekend.

    I could already see in the dark with the SS3 MAX fogs and the 30" light bar. But the light bar not being street legal attracted the law when used anywhere near the road.

    The Fogster now turns on the fogs when the high beams are engaged so I can see in the dark and remain legal.

    The Fogster is a must in my opinion.
