    I wrapped my factory ones in electrical tape and zip tied out of the way lol I figure since I've got relays on all the lines, i should be able to splice at least the fogs together and run them off the factory stalk w/o killing anything. The A pillars and bar obv need their own switch

    I see most do a 42" LED bar in the center of the bumper, then pod lights on the sides.
    I'd like to use the lexan bumper side pieces to fill in the corner bumper holes, but I still would like fogs.
    I see some have done a 20" LED bar in the center with 4 square LED pods.

    Has anyone done a 30" LED bar in the center combined in the same section with only 2 pods (used as fogs)?

    Thanks!

    Thanks! And how much are the Baja to Toyota wiring adapters to retain factory power? Or do they come with the lights?
    Also - what is the beam pattern - Fog/Spot/Flood?
    Thanks!

    I taped into the fog wiring for the pods backlighting and then ran the main pod spotlight to a switch. I like the subtle backlighting with the main lights on. And then I can switch them on for additional light and for anytime fogs

    They aren't included but we sell them for $14.95/set if you call 800-422-5292

    These lights come in a few different patterns for forward projection. We offer a Spot, Driving/Combo, and Wide Cornering pattern. The Spot is designed for long range distance. The Wide Cornering is designed for near field lighting. And the Driving/Combo is a nice all-in-one pattern for near field, midfield, and distance lighting.

    The best part is that these can easily be changed thanks to our uService technology. You can fine tune the light pattern to your specific needs.

    We offer replacement lenses on our site here for any looking to change a pattern or color :)
    https://www.bajadesigns.com/products/Replacement-Lenses.asp

    What is your primary use for these lights? Currently the Squadron Sport, Pair, Wide Cornering is very popular for fog lights! We have many customers running them in OEM and Aftermarket applications.

    Thanks! Aren't the Fog Pockets for the factory bumper though? I'm currently searching for the best deal on the N-Fab MRDS front bumper. Trying to plan the 2018 Grill (have now), 2018 LED Headlights (will be here tomorrow), and front Bumper swap all at the same time.
    eta - I'd really like to use the plexi plastic pieces in the corners of the MRDS bumper, I don't want fogs in the corners. I'd like the look to resemble a plate-style bumper as much as possible. Thanks for the wide cornering info - those I think would make the most sense after installing the 2018 LED headlights.

    @Baja Designs - I would want the Baja Lights to act as Fogs would for beam pattern.

    @Baja Designs Most common set up between fogs/ditch lights would be: Fogs= wide cornering Amber and Ditch= Driving/Combo or Spot in White?

    For the Fogs the Amber Wide Cornering is certainly most common. For the Ditch lights it's 50/50 between Spot and Driving/Combo. A lot comes down to personal preference. Some customers do prefer a little more vision towards the sides with their ditch lights. Here is a quick comparison using the Squadron Pro:

    I'm pretty surprised with those mounts. Based on the looks I wasn't sure if they would hold the position of the pod as well as they do since they are multi-point adjustable. After dozens of wheeling adventures and Ricky Bobby'ing it in the desert they are still holding solid.
