Do the Diode Dynamics. The Signature Lux will melt the fog shrouds.
Diode Dynamics Elite series. or SS3 max's the previous gen ranger fog lights fit. I am running a set of 5gen Elite's on my 25. I even have the amber back lighting hooked up to an ignition fuse for an extra drl. granted its not bright for daytime use. but its nice in the night.
the OEM foglights are utter useless in the fog. been running DD ss3 pro's in my old 2012 escape. And I was astonished how shitty the 2025 led fogs were on my xlt. so a set of Diode Dynamics Elite series went in for that oem plus look. and way better functionality!
I have since replaced them with Baja Designs wide cornering, which runs cooler than the Signature Lux. I'm not the only one who has experienced heat distortion or melting on the shrouds.Share the evidence to support your Signature Lux claim.
My Comments:
Even if it were the sun, the heat damage is a direct result of the Signature Lux fog lights; minimal R&D would have revealed that a projector lens might not have been the best choice. It probably would have been smarter to use a properly designed TIR lens or even a conventional reflector arrangement.
They don't market it as compatible with the RR.
That shouldn't surprise me, given your past forum posts.
No, it was a "no R&D" concern.As for China and "rebranded" products, if thas a concern "US only" good luck, likely gonna be hard pressed in todays global supply chain & economy...and yes, Ford uses many parts made in China particularly for vehicles assembled in North America.
No, fitment problems are not a problem exclusive to early adopters. That, again, is a problem that would have been fixed if proper product development had been done. I got my set of DRLs either the day before Flaperdoobin or the same day. (I ended up trashing them and found an alternative solution)
Nearly every new car has some recalls. That is one of the pitfalls of outsourcing component production to minimize costs, along with the increased complexity of cars. Blame the government for the mandated safety features and the consumer for expecting everything to be a 'smart' device.So, if you want product(s)certainty...buy a F-O-R-D with +1,000,000 recalls just in 2025
Maybe not ignoring more than one report of an issue with a low-volume product to support your choice-supportive bias would be wise.But you do you.
Roger that...likewise
Le Sigh ...

You even asked DD if it was compatible, bought it anyway, then whined that it didnt work.
My favorite part about the DD HitchMount 'issue' of yours is that you didn't even acknowledge that they told you it was part of the RR's trailer module (advanced tow system above).

Had Signature Lux sent out his set and either paid him to do an install video, or just given him a set to do the install video with (this is common with product reviewers through T&E), the fitment problem would have been known before consumer kits were shipped.

But yeah, you do you Boo Boo.
I guess that's the most mature response you are capable of.
WAAAAYYY to much time on your hands bubba

Nuff said...enjoy the fogs hoss
Says the troll.
One of those looks to have a hell of a lot more heat sink than the other.Diode Dynamics Elite series. or SS3 max's the previous gen ranger fog lights fit. I am running a set of 5gen Elite's on my 25. I even have the amber back lighting hooked up to an ignition fuse for an extra drl. granted its not bright for daytime use. but its nice in the night.
Yeah, the Diode Dynamics are the black massive heatsink ones. I can actually half see in the fog now. the oem ones were useless in the fog.
I'd love to swamp my fogs w/ BD's like you did. How'd you mount them up?I have since replaced them with Baja Designs wide cornering, which runs cooler than the Signature Lux. I'm not the only one who has experienced heat distortion or melting on the shrouds.
You have to remember, they do no actual R&D in-house. It's all stuff found on Ali Baba they bought and then presented as their own. Hell, the early bi-led fogs they sold came from Aililaisi who reuses the same GTW-G38 box in a lot of their product photos.
We are talking about the same company that did preorders for the lava DRLs and didnt even bother to send a set to their 'influancer' flaperdoobin for a fitment check.
But you do you.
