The way this is mounted concerns me. It doesn’t seem like it would take much for somebody to come up and unbolt that $1k + light bar in under a minute.
There are 5 plastic trim plugs that hold the metal part of the bumper to the plastic part . I popped 2 of them out and found 2 stainless bolts that fit in them without any drilling. Here's a close up if you look under the bar in the picture you can see the other 3 plugs I didn't pull out.
Do you know which size bolts you used? I think I picked up the same light and can’t seem to find bolts with a large enough head that locks into the mounting bracket but is skinny enough to fit in the trim plug holes without drilling them out larger.

Update on my own post - this 20” Nilight bar from Amazon fits in the recess on my 2022 F250 using the supplied mounting hardware and brackets if you use the upper trim plug holes instead of the lower ones. In other words, I hung the light bar from above instead of setting it on top of the brackets as Overthebars did. You have to access the bolts to mount it from underneath and behind the trim piece but it fits perfectly in the recess.
I didn’t want to drill any holes out larger as I may want to add the Torklift hidden front hitch receiver that fits in the same recess at some point in the future, so I may remove the light bar and mount one somewhere else in that case.
I didnt want to cut into the grill so I chose another route. All Diode Dynamics
Which fog light kit is this from diode dynamics? The one i found that looks similar doesnt work for LED 2020+ trucks. Did you have to modify it at all?
Installed the RC light kit for the Super Duty this weekend. The install took about 3 hours, not real difficult, just time consuming. The kit is really clean and fits well. Only had to trim a small notch in the corners.
Trim a small notch of what exactly? The grill? I too am considering this very kit. I like the fact that it tucks in behind the grill.

Yeah, just a small notch out of the back of the grill. Honestly, if you do a little more pre-fitting/placement, you probably wouldn’t need to trim anything.

Thanks for the info. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a set.

Not sure what I'm going to do with my '24 yet. It has LED headlights, so I'm not really feeling the need for a light bar right now. I could use something angled off to the ditches though...

Did you connect the power to an Upfitter switch? I have an LED in the bumper but may install a front hitch so may go your route instead.
I have their LED headlights. Installed them in June of 23 and two passenger side bulbs burned out. I emailed them because i was hoping they could tell me why it might of happened and they just told me to give my address so they could end replacements.
Based on testing them on the opposite headlight the fans were going crazy but putting out no light, so i assume they both overheated. Wonder what caused both lights on passenger side to overheat.
Either way, id say their customer support was responsive and resolved the issue. Lights dont have a very good light pattern, but they are better than the sylvania silverstar ultra halogens i was using, and way better than stock.
Im thinking about the diode dynamics, can I run either the whites or yellows as fogs without blinding people? I imagine my f150led headlights are going to all fail and might just go back to halogens, wondering if the diode dynamics would work to suppliment the halogens.
