Some pics of how the eBay kit from Thailand fits. Install was super easy, connected to low voltage switch 1 at this time.

Unlike online videos which grounded each light individually, I did a single point ground with a spaded pigtail and splice joint. Wiring pic is before full helical tape of nylon jackets, along with zip tie/tape to secure everything. If anything doesn't work out, it takes more time to remove the cowl than to wire the lights!

Would I ideally prefer the solid bar LED? Yeah, but I wanted the flush fit more.

F150LEDs.com has kits for the 2924 ranger
Unfortunately they are not for the Ranger Raptor.
They are actually using the same lights from the F150 kit.
‘Several of us have them, they don’t fit quite right, but the light quality is much better then the eBay kit I started with. They just don’t fit as well as the eBay lights.
F150LED is supposed to be working on a kit for the Ranger Raptor.
I plan to swap out my F150 lights for said RR kit whenever it comes out.

Not sure yet how or why but F150 LED is now saying their amber light kit fits all 2024 Ranger Tim levels including the Ranger Raptor.

They don’t show it being installed one, so it could be as simple as many of of have done it and most were not really happy with fitment but I guess technically we made it work.
‘I hope this doesn’t mean they are done and not going to come up with a proper fitting light for the RR.

Fit is good but I don’t like how you can see the individual led diodes.

Having lived with them for a few weeks, I thought the individual LEDs, that all happen to be at an angle as well would bug me, but they actually don't at all.

My wife told me to just get the F150LED lights when they come out with ones that flush fit without grinding. But after dinner this week when I hit remote start, we both noticed a few things:

- I wanted the lights to be more solid to match the C lights, but the markers are yellow while C are white.
- The fender markers and side mirror markers are have an older reflector style look, and the grille marker lights actually complement those well, except for being slightly more yellow. But look again at night and you may quickly realize you also want them to blend with the other markers not the C-lights.
- During the day, one could say these ones aren't super bright, but they are plenty bright at night which is what they're supposed to be for.

And then we both said neither is ideal, but these actually blend very nicely and no reason to change.

At the end of the day, the fun was installing them, and I notice them for 2 seconds when remote starting, but I don't even know they're there when I'm driving.

Would I do the mod again? In a heartbeat. Would I spend more than the $50 shipped I did? Unsure.

This was the reply I got today from F150 LEDs on the fitment concerns.
Looking forward to seeing how they do that. I suspect it will involve shaving them down as some of our other members have done.

Thanks for your comments and support! Your information and feedback has been valuable to us. After reviewing the current end results of fellow Raptor Ranger owners and gathering their feedback as well we are going to show how the current kit, which is the absolute best ranger raptor grill light kit available, can be made to fit even closer inside the grill if the owner desires that. This would be a modification that any owner could decide if they so chose. Stay tuned for that and thanks again for your support! We appreciate you! Please let us know of other lighting needs/feedback for your ranger that you may have!

Well, if they won’t rework their stock to fit and are just going to provide guidance on how to mod them, it sounds like there is a market to resell modded, ready to go kits. I’d be slightly concerned about warranty if it requires user modification to the lights but it sounds like they have a pretty good reputation for warranty with their current product.

Thanks for getting that statement from them. So far all they have said is they fit and users have been happy with them.

Yea I was not exactly thrilled with that answer but sounds like they not planning to make the lights for us as a ready to plug and play perfect fit many of us were really hoping for.

On the bright side I guess for me, I already bought there F150/Ranger Gen 3 lights and installed the lights on my RR.
So, all I will need to do is follow their instructions once they come out with them, or hopefully an instruction video as to how make the lights I have fit better. I am willing to give that try.

I have these on the way. They guarantee to fit within the small space.
$77 total cost.

I'm looking forward to hearing how it goes with the Signature Lux. I've been reluctant to pull the trigger on others because I'd rather not have to mod anything to make it fit or it being dim. I hope they are bright enough at night as well.
