    Did you mount your bar on the lowest hole on the bracket or next hole up?

    Anyone have any pics of the clear fogs for an 18 /19 tundra with the OEM led headlights.

    The factory led fog lights are terrible in my opinion.

    Are you looking for output shots or photos of the lights installed on the vehicle?

    Good to know! Our lights are 5000K which is a bright "daylight" color temperature. I believe the OEM lights are 6000K which will have a slight blue tint.

    We don't have those shots, but hopefully a customer with that vehicle will chime in soon.

    What’s the difference between the squadron sport and the XL sport when they have the same lumen output?

    The main difference is size. The Squadron measures 3"x3" where the XL is a larger 4.5"x4.5". This does change light output. XL series lights feature larger high speed spot reflectors which are good for distance and midfield lighting. Squadron Series reflectors are smaller and provide better lighting in near field and mid over distance.

    Here is an old night shot comparison w/ the 1,800 Lumen counts.

    From @Baja Designs post on tacoma world, dated October 1,2018 when someone asked the same question:
    "At this time none of our lights are DOT approved or street-legal. The Squadron Sport (wide cornering) was considered street-friendly, but with our recent update I would NOT recommend running on the street with other traffic. These are too bright for street use with other vehicles"

    As stated above, none of the Baja Designs lights are currently street-legal or DOT approved. Not sure who the dealer is, I'm happy to reach out and provide clarification.

    Just wanted to give a shout out to BD's Customer service and quality. Although not Tundra related, Had an issue with a Squadron Pro on my Husqvarna, they went above and beyond to make things right, pulling the trigger on a light for my son's KTM and will probably do the same for fogs on my Tundra.

    Nice work BD, the Customer Service makes decision making easy for me now.

    I heard the ONX6 Hi POWER is discontinued. Is that true? If so, why are they discontinued?
