Is that factory aftermarket light bar really $700? I like the looks of it but am quite surprised by that cost. I think I saw BMC offers one for $300. Have you guys used that before cause seeing your pics I do think that the BD LP6 look the best. And you get more output.
It is - and it is on the high side. Baja Designs also offers their version with 5 LP6 lights. It comes out as a cheaper bundle and includes the wiring - backing out the cost of the 5 LP6 lights means ends up being around $640 for the bar and the wiring harnesses, so that gets you to about $400-450 for the bar.
Tell me more! How does pricing compare to a setup running 5 LP series lights?
The upgrade is $124.95 per light and the total output for a 7-light Linkable is 63,154 lumens. Just slightly edging out 5x LP9 Pro lights at 62,735. 5x LP6 Pro would be 56,125 lumens.
Awesome! so slightly less cost and slightly more output than a setup running LP9's (and I agree, the XL linkable kit looks sooooo good on the 2020-2022 trucks). Not quite ready to drop $2500 on lights (still have to install the parts you sent me last week
) but this is on the list now!
Sounds good, man. Happy to help when the time comes. Looking forward to seeing those new fogs installed!Awesome! so slightly less cost and slightly more output than a setup running LP9's (and I agree, the XL linkable kit looks sooooo good on the 2020-2022 trucks).

Very true!Here's my $.20 adjusted for inflation: as a flashaholic (talking lights now) it comes down to need more than want. I have six flashlights. One of them has a 80,000 lumen setting. Guess how many times I've used that setting? Once, just to see what it looked like.
I recently added a Rigid E-Series Pro 10 light bar as mentioned in another thread (see here: Post in thread 'What did you do to your Tremor today?' https://www.fordtremor.com/threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-tremor-today.69/post-409161).
Most people add $2k-$3k in lights to look like the other guy they saw online. They'll never need or use that much light. It's just aesthetics at that point. If you're rarely in the middle of nowhere and don't do much off-roading , a simple light bar will do. You asked about a simple fog replacement and now you're getting bombarded with full blown $3k set-ups. If you're happy with the high beams as stated, be simple with a light bar or a basic set-up under the OEM fogs. Simple, sweet and easy on your wallet.
XL 80s are great lights and bang for the buck!Awesome! so slightly less cost and slightly more output than a setup running LP9's (and I agree, the XL linkable kit looks sooooo good on the 2020-2022 trucks).

Does that Baja Designs bull bar with the LP6 lights interfere with the front camera or cruise control? I really like the look of it, but I don’t want to lose any features of the truck.It is - and it is on the high side. Baja Designs also offers their version with 5 LP6 lights. It comes out as a cheaper bundle and includes the wiring - backing out the cost of the 5 LP6 lights means ends up being around $640 for the bar and the wiring harnesses, so that gets you to about $400-450 for the bar.

BMC has two different versions of their light bar. They have the more square plate style unit that's $249, pictured below.

We did this version for @xrocket21 on his truck with his 30" Baja Designs S8 light bar, pictured below:
BMC also offers their Alpha light bar, if you prefer the more tubular look. It's $449 for this version, vs the plate style of the other bar. Alpha pictured below:

There is no impact to the adaptive cruise control system. However, depending on where you place your lights, you may have an issue with the camera. A lot of guys who are wanting to keep the front camera will mount their lights with a gap in the middle to maintain visibility.
Thanks, I ordered the fog light kit and reverse lights from you all. Haven’t decided if I want to do the others yet or not. Thanks for the reply.
Thank you for your support!
Yes. We've had numerous customers go that route. You just buy the parts for the halogen housing and replace. Once done, you can do a BD Squadron factory replacement kit, or Diode Dynamics SS3 factory replacement and you're good to go.
Thanks! I’ve been trying to search but can’t seem to find any photos of that setup.
Here’s some old pics of my truck with that setup (your asking about the single fog kit right?).
