LED Fog Lights

[mrsundays]

Curious if anyone knows if LED lights, such as the Rigid fog lights, would work on the factory switch. Ive contacted Rigid and KC to find out but havent heard back. Ive found a bracket that will work with my 2015 Sport, but want to wait to pull the trigger until I hear back. Just wondering if anyone has tried it.

I tried it on my 15 abd they didn't. I had two per side and pig tails to make them plug right into the factory wiring but they wouldn't work. You might be able to run a relay triggered by the factory switch but I didn't try that.

I run my Rigid pods with my factory fog switch by using relays. Also have my spotlight pods and the high side of the driving light pods by using the factory high beam circuit to trigger relays.

I have it going through the factory switch on my 2014. It works just fine.

There's a write up on how to do this using adapters and the stock wiring.

At first I like the LED idea until I saw on in person. The bracket was actually sticking out of the fog light whole, and it just didn't look right.

If I was able to find a pair, that sits flush with the fog light holes, then I might entertain that idea. Also, I didn't realize how much light the stock fog lights put out, so I hope they can push out the same amount of light...even more.

The stock fog lights on my 2015 are garbage compared to Rigids Fog lights. I cant even begin to put it into words. Ill have to search again for a write-up but I couldnt find anything definitve for the 2015 using the new CANBUS update.

They work for 2014s and earlier with pigtails and factory wiring but do not work with 2015s using that method. Only way they will work Oma 2015 is with relays like sbarron said.

Even on my 13 i had intermittent flicker without the relays.
