going to try to install tomo. (Sunday) working todayDamn… mine shipped the same day but won’t be here till Monday at the earliest. Post of pics of the install!
No shot I can run these at night, which is okay but was hopeful they’d be aimed down enough. Plenty of throw and width, they’re gonna be great on back roads. I’ll get pictures tomorrowGot mine installed, was somehow more simple and painless than when I went from halogen fogs to led fogs on my Gladiator.
Took maybe 30 minutes total, lights sit nice and flush, bright for sure. Excited to see them at night
What do you mean you can’t run them at night?No shot I can run these at night, which is okay but was hopeful they’d be aimed down enough. Plenty of throw and width, they’re gonna be great on back roads. I’ll get pictures tomorrow
I’ll grab some shortly. No gaps that I can seeWhat do you mean you can’t run them at night?
Any pics of them installed? Are there gaps around the light?
There’s a very slight gap around the whole light but it’s no more than a few MM.I’ll grab some shortly. No gaps that I can see
The pattern throws light too tall to be used without blinding oncoming traffic, at least on mine that is leveled.
Oh wow. They have much better fitment than the Diode Dynamics. I have the DD and there’s gaps around the lights. Looks crappy in my opinion. These look good!There’s a very slight gap around the whole light but it’s no more than a few MM.

I’m a DD fan boy, all my other lights are DD, SS5’s, SS3’s and C2’s. But Baja may have swayed me with this move.Oh wow. They have much better fitment than the Diode Dynamics. I have the DD and there’s gaps around the lights. Looks crappy in my opinion. These look good!
attached a few pictures. First is the S1s and my Ss3 max in Driving pattern. Note the ss3s are on the a pillar. Next is low beams and S1s. Even with only about 18 inches from the bumper to the garage door, the S1s shine high enough to meet the bottom of the low beamsThere’s a very slight gap around the whole light but it’s no more than a few MM.

Nice, but to really show the aim you'll need to park on a level surface about 25ft from a wall and look at the beam pattern there. Basically repeat the steps of how you'd aim your headlights manually. That will tell you definitively how your fogs are aimed, and if need any tweaking to not blind incoming traffic.attached a few pictures. First is the S1s and my Ss3 max in Driving pattern.

If these could be aimed I would! The aiming mechanism for our fogs are attached to the OEM housing. These are bolted into the 3 bolts that the factory housing used, but with no aiming ability. I’m sure you could fashion some spacers of some sort if really needed.Nice, but to really show the aim you'll need to park on a level surface about 25ft from a wall and look at the beam pattern there.
