Grill LED lights

I’m looking to augment the output of the factory LED headlights. I read a big thread about lots of LED light bar options. I like the look of those integrated in the grill. I found these

They look like what I want, but not much in the reviews about their performance. Anyone have feedback on these or recommend another kit that’s better?

I have the RC led lights on my truck and one on my SXS. They hold up great. The one on my sxs takes a beating and still works fine.

Mine are the 6" rigid driving lights, and the cubes and sae fogs in KD brackets in place of the standard Ford fogs. The cubes and driving lights are ona upfitter switch, the fogs are on the factory switch.

Pics were on a lightly misty night.

Rigid 6" bars, cubes and yellow sae fogs tag in torklift 10k hitch

High beam and fogs

Thanks to Nick at appollo optics for helping me go through the options.

The rear lights make as much of a difference as well. I have them on a switch.
​​​​​​But that is another topic.
I still need to adjust them a little more, left fog needs rotated out and down a little.

I have the same setup as well as some flush mount backup lights from Rigid but I haven’t put them in yet. Do you have any tips for the installation?

Well, what are you really asking about. If you're wanting to see some grill lights, then here is a highly rated one:



If you're wanting to know more about grille LED lights, then here is a pic of the Rough Country LEDs installed in my grille (along with the Raptor LEDs):



I really like the RC lights and they're a bit brighter than the high-beams. They also flood a bit more to the sides, which I like.
