Personally 3 lights over 4. Though some people complain about them looking a bit weak versus the f150 in daylight.

I did slide them all the way in. They are a universal fit not made for the Ranger Raptor and it would be good if you listed them that way on your website. You will get Ranger Raptor business without returns if you design lights that really fit completely into the slots.

I liked the looks of the lights, and they do look well made, but they just don't fit right.
Thanks KGrow! We are glad to hear you liked the look of the lights! We think they look fantastic without modification or reshaping (as shown in the pics on our website etc.) You can trim them as another forum member did if that is your preference (we have a guide on our website showing this). Thanks again for your support and for being apart of the Ranger6G community!

Why dont you just sell a different set that fits the raptor that comes flush fitting from you guys?
Hey DesertBumAZ! We are grateful that we have had the opportunity to serve a lot of Ranger Raptor owners with our MKIII COB LED grill lights with fantastic feedback. The vast majority have/are loving them without any modifications and as installed/displayed on our website. We have only had a relative few with fitment issues/change desires so we made a guide on our website for those that do wish to modify them for even tighter fitment (similar to what fellow Ranger6G community member NASSTY did and displayed in this thread).

We genuinely appreciate the feedback as we are always looking to improve but we are also proud to say we believe that we have the absolute best Ranger / Ranger Raptor grill lights available. Developing a shape change would increase the cost for all Ranger Raptor owners and with their feedback already so positive we opted to keep costs down for them. We hope that answers your question, please let us know how we can continue to serve!

Three is most common but four can look really good as well! It just comes down to a personal choice most of the time =)

We are proud to say our grill lights will NOT look washed out during the day etc. If youd like to give them a try please let us know!

I would gladly pay a premium price for some purpose-built lights that were a trapezoid shape that has the same forward angle as the Ranger Raptor pockets at the top of the grill (3). LED kits you offer, as well as competitors, are inexpensive to me and I imagine most RR owners agree. The vendor that does this kind of fitment will likely win over the masses. To date anything that is being offered for this location is a slim design that doesn't fill the pocket.

I also inquired with your customer support team months ago about whether or not you would do an integrated ambient lighting replacement kit for the RR. We have ambient lighting in a single color and in FORScan there is the ability to enable full color controls, but we do not have the correct LEDs present to make this work. Another opportunity for a creative vendor to come up with a solution for.

Thanks Catalyst, we appreciate the feedback! We are proud that our current Raptor grill lights certainly stand out & shine brighter than any others.

What kind of price would you be happy paying for a trapezoid molded version of our COB grill lights?

Great idea on ambient lighting, we do have an add on option that would give you full color control (and brighter lights as well as console lighting) but we understand having the factory controller would be cool also! Here is a pic of our current kit below

I'd pay double what you ask for your current Gen3 offering without hesitation for a molded case that fills that pocket and angle of the opening, and maybe more if justified with R&D or tooling costs.

not OP, but a trapezoidal shaped like that perfectly fit would be the 'go to' accessory for raptor rangers. many YouTube reviewers discuss it as a necessary and easy mod, but the right accessory isn't there yet.

I would happily pay double for a perfect fit light. The fit is the whole reason I haven’t purchased any yet.
Same here, I purchased some from F150 leds for a Bronco because I had thought about cutting the back out of the recessed portion for the lights & putting the light behind the grill so nothing would show at all. I just don’t want to cut on my grill like that, not to mention that the grill is quite thick in that area as far as I can tell. Yes, if I could find a light that is made to fit there I would be more than glad to pay the price for them.

Agreed, I would easily pay $200 to get quality lights that are perfect plug and play with perfect fitment.

Seems to me the vast majority on forum here would prefer a well fitted light to the universal lights.

I have been looking for a perfect fit grill light since I bought my RR last spring.

I have my second set of universal lights in mine now, and still willing to buy another set if one should come on the market that fits perfect and still has a quality light output.

I am happy to read or hear that F150LEDs now has some instructions now on how to cut these lights down to fit more precisely into the pockets.

If I don't ever find the custom perfect fit lights I am wanting I am sure I will pull my F150Leds out and start trying to cut them down to fit better.

I hit up diode dynamics to make some, give it time and they will deliver.

Thanks guys, we really apricate the continued feedback and support. While we are proud of our current gen3 grille lights on the ranger raptor we are going to see how we might be able to work your feedback into making the requested improvements. As mentioned prior it will add to the cost (in the 2-300 ballpark) so the more feedback on this post we can get about fellow ranger owners saying it is worth it to everyone the easier it will be for us to make it happen.

Once we get to a certain stage of development we would want to enlist some of you guys as testers, who would like to join us in that?

Thanks guys, your continued support can help us make progress on this together!
