Np happy to help. Sorry had to dig them back out lol.
I ordered a set of brackets to play around with. I also noticed that OEM fog lamps are not flush with the round opening in bumper, I guess rain and dirt must also get in there; poor design.
The Diode Dynamics fogs a much brighter, and throw more light on the sides.I ordered a set of brackets to play around with. I also noticed that OEM fog lamps are not flush with the round opening in bumper, I guess rain and dirt must also get in there; poor design.

As you've seen in my posts in other threads, I have powerful Diode Dynamics SS3 SAE Yellow ProThe Diode Dynamics fogs a much brighter, and throw more light on the sides.
You did yours the hard way lol, I just wrapped my factory ones to be amber hahaHey everyone,
To the point.
Install was simple. I pulled roughly 7 screws, from the forward/lower part of the wheel well liner, to gain access to the factory fogs. Unplugged them, removed the 3 screws holding them in. (T15s)
Foxbeam mount replacements are 3D printed. A couple things. Where the light mounts on the bracket, it could be ⅛" lower and ⅛" moved back. Those are my only gripes.
(Side Note: don't gorilla the mount screws to the bracket. There is no way to adjust them but by hand once installed. Make them tight enough to sit still but loose enough to aim them. There is no tightening them down after install unless you have the hands of a Kebbler Elf)
I plugged the DD harness into the factory harness then into the light, polarity sensitive so test fire once it's plugged in before completing install.
I chose yellow. I love yellow fog lights. I have 2 yellow spot lights under the truck as well. They will probably become ditch lights.

Here are some pics. Feel free to ask any questions.
By the way, Foxbeam has mounts for those of you with the rectangle fogs in the bumpers of the newer trucks.
I think that question is forI installed them on my 22 at4x with the square fogs and they don’t turn on except to flash every ten seconds. I’ve emailed them asking for help but I’ve check all connections and all seems good. Anything weird when you installed yours?
So the plugs will plug into the factory wiring harness either way. Have you tried to reverse the connection? They are polarity sensitive.I installed them on my 22 at4x with the square fogs and they don’t turn on except to flash every ten seconds.

I tried it on one side and that side wouldn’t turn on at all. I do have a boostauto mod that has the fogs turn on automatically with the headlights. I’m wondering if those aren’t compatible. Looking at the oem fogs, they are only 8w. The Ssc2 are almost 26w and I guessing maybe the wattage difference isn’t playing nice with that mod. I’m going to try and unplug that tomorrow to see if that changes anything.So the plugs will plus into the factory wiring harness either way. Have you tried to reverse the connection?

Do you have the drl connected?I tried it on one side and that side wouldn’t turn on at all. I do have a boostauto mod that has the fogs turn on automatically with the headlights.

I do not have the wire connected to the drl to have the backlight function. Is that required? I thought that was optional.Do you have the drl connected?
The lights are polarity sensitive from the truck harness to the wiring harness from DD. Flip the plug 180°, retry it. It should fire off.I tried it on one side and that side wouldn’t turn on at all.

I did not hook up the DRL. It would not match the current DRL colors I have and would drive me nuts.Do you have the drl connected?
