DD fog pocket

[SpaceWhiteF150]

I know it’s not a tremor but this fits y’all’s trucks too! I think I’m one of the very few running this kit.

Before

After

Through this swap I replaced the entire front bumper and switched headlight drl color. If you look very close you will also notice I now have a 4wd valence, tow hooks, Swarfworks plate braket, and ecoboost inner grille.

What is the behavior of the fog lights? What is on when only DRLs are on? Can you do yellow/white separately? Etc.

I was on the DD website yesterday looking at some of their stuff. I don't think I am going to replace the factory fogs, but I was looking at the SS5 grill pod setup - 5 pods across.

That being said, I am still interested in how the fogs work functionally. I assume though it could potentially be different for a Tremor, especially if we wanted to wire the lights to the up-fitter switches.

The pods I purchased do not have the backlight function, when drls are on it’s just the headlight drl. Yes you could easily wire the pods separately I just choose not to.

I currently have AlphaRex Luxx headlights paired with these fogs. All the part #’s between tremor led fogs and normal halegon fogs all have the same mounting locations. They will fit perfectly on a tremor. The light output is amazing. Yes you can wire the pods to upfitter switches I just choose not to.

The 5 light kit comes with an adaptor harness to connect to the upfitter switches if desired. I was looking at the 2 light bumper kit, but a lot of $$. I already installed ditch lights and backup lights. I'm gonna be broke.

What backup lights did you use?

What backup lights did you use?

The Diode Dynamics kit. I got it from Specialty Performance.

SPV Parts 2021-2023 Ford F-150 (Excluding Raptor) Rear Diode Dynamics SS2 Series Reverse Light Kit (No Drill) Red Backlight Rear LED - Sport (1,130 Lumens) / Short Length Harness w/Tail Light Adapter (Reverse Only) / Tremor (Built in Aux Switches) (With BLIS/LED)

How’d you mount them? I got the kit and looked at the rear bumper and didn’t think the right bolts were there since we have the dual exhaust inset in the bumper.

There's a bolt about 1 1/2 inches from the the exhaust about the mid point of the pipe. It's kind of blocked by the large bolt in the first pic, but the only other bolt in that location.

I’ll have to look again. I’ve already returned them since I got a tailgate lightbar that has reverse lights, but I’m curious now

There seemed to be some concern weather the 5 light setup interferes with the front camera. They kind of steered around that by suggesting the 2 light "bumper kit". They refer to the 5 light setup as "the grill kit". Instead of mounting anything out front, I saw these SSC1 cubes and bought a set. They mount to the side of the ditch light and with a splitter will operate on the same switches without running another harness and using more switches.

This is what I went with!

That's what I bought. The big ones are installed already The SSC1's are due Tuesday.

Nice setups! Love the ditch lights.

Here’s my rear light setup.

Also using specialty performance parts products. I just mounted mine differently.

I think the mounting location differs on the Tremor. That's why I ordered from Specialty Performance. They tailor the kit to the specific vehicle.

 

[SpaceWhiteF150]

I’m running the same bracket as y’all, it is just used differently because I switched to raptor end caps.

The note on their website noted the fitment for the

SS5 Grille CrossLink Lightbar​

NOTE: This lightbar may interfere with a portion of the viewing window in trucks with the 360 Degree Camera Package. However, the camera is still useable.


Because of that note, I elected to go with the S5 Bumper Pod Pro kit. The two pods still show up a little bit in the bottom corners of the front cam. I will try to remember to take a couple of pics. But I am glad I did not go with the light bar. I also have some S3 Fog Pro installed on the winch mount. I still have the S3 Pro Ditch Light pods to install.

I do not have any plans to change the factory fogs because the way the DRL flows also into the fog light section. So I thought it just may not look as good. But now they have a new set of fogs coming out in April 2023 called Elite Fog Lamps for 2021-2023 Ford F-150. They are not pods, but I guess a premium upgrade with some additional features. But I guess you would also need the Elite LED Headlights since that selectable color DRL feature would only look right if you had both. Not something I will do, but if you got the money to burn.

• Triple LED projectors for maximum output and intensity
• Selectable-color Blade DRL
• Modern welcome sequence
• Integrated sequential amber turn signal

This looks nice too! I am torn between this or the grill set up. If you have a chance, I would love to see a picture of how much these lights show in the camera. I am not really concerned about a partial block of the front camera view. My VelociRaptor had the front bumper bar that went across the camera view, and it really didn't bother me, especially after I got used to it.

Did you do this install yourself? I already watched the install video on the DD website. It seems pretty straightforward, but I just wondered what your experience was like.
