Has anyone found a cheap DIY for mounting LED cube lights as fog lights? PFAbde4fa85d435975e718ca1436cc81be8.jpg

I have only found one company American made I would buy from but I'm always up for a DIY job. I've found plenty of brackets to purchase I'm just not up for buy and I possibly want to do it differently (a single 4"bar)

Looks like you dont have tow hooks so maybe something like these?
Last pic is led lows, fogs, tow hook covers and behind grill 7" pods

OK, but that's not what you asked. lol... I'm thinking to mount a 4" bar vertically in there would be easy enough but you'd end up fabricating your own mounts. THat would be an easy make though....

I have an Assault Lighting light bar in my 2016 Ram. I am going to switch the Headlights to LED also.

Are you planning on using these as true fogs or just more light? A true fog light setup has a beam pattern wide and low. A vertical bar will not have that effect and will essentially be shining light vertical/up. Not very useful unless your on a backroad or something. Would hate to be coming at you at night if you plan on running it that way all the time.... interesting thought though.

That’s pretty badass. Kinda makes me a little sad I had the guys at the bodyshop order me and install a set of OEM tow hooks in my front bumper that the truck didn’t come with from the factory, after I hit that damn deer last February.

Did those come with all the wiring, switch, relays and all that? If I had a set, I’d want them to be on a three-way switch so that one position would be in with the highbeams, middle position would be off completely and down position would be an override to let me turn them on at will, whenever.

No, not a complete setup. I ordered mictuning wiring harness at the time. I since have swapped wiring 2 more times from remote syncd to homelink(nice setup) to aftermarket oem aux switchs

2 of those (the bottom, single row set) are amber in a combination driving/flood pattern and work fabulously in heavy fog/snow. THese are wired to come on independently so I can run with any combination of the low-beams, high beams, or just by themselves.

The upper two sets are 1) a spot/driving combo pattern and 2) a spot pattern. These give me great coverage of the area in front of my truck. I run the all the time, but do so responsibly. I have these two wired so that both a switch AND the high beams need to be engaged fro the lights to come on. This way I merely need to dim my headlights and these turn off.

.... and Alaska is almost ALL back-roads full of rogue, vehicle destroying swamp donkeys!
