Grille Marker Lights. Who has the best, fit and longevity

[Shrek The Raptor]

Yes, before you ask, I’ve RESEARCHED. I’m a millennial with crippling analysis paralysis and I know *everything* about all the grille marker lights there is to know, except what actually fits well (not sticking out) and lasts the longest.


so.. if you’ve got RAPTOR specific marker lights chime in, let me know how they’ve held up and how they fit.

3,4,5 lights, makes no difference, just want feedback.

F150 LEDs has Ranger Raptor specific grill lights now. They fit perfectly and are super bright. Unlike some of the less expensive options, you don’t see individual LEDs in each light. They offer both amber and white, so you can match to your parking lights. Worth a look…

Cool fog beast photo.

I went with F150 ones and pretty happy with them. People complain about being able to see the yellow stuff inside touching the outer clear plastic but honestly it doesnt bother me and the overall look is very clean as noted above (no indivifual LEDs), they fit nicely. Install was disappointingly-annoying (big drill, small space). And as for number, clearly 3 is correct

F150 cob with a light layer of tint.
It looks good until you inspect closely and see that the fit is slightly off by a few nanometers.

I agree about the big drill. Decided to dispense with their overly large connectors and drilled much smaller holes for just the wiring to pull through. Of course that meant splicing 6 connections, but I thought the trade off was worth it.

100% its the connectors which is whats annoying, the gaps in the Raptor grille are just small. I was very careful and it turned out OK but I slightly mangled the connectors in the process (wires inside were fine). Splicing is smart! Though for the price I would prefer not to have to... It seems like the kind of thing the next version could (should) easily improve.

I purchased the F150 LEDs (3) kit for my '24 RR before they had the Ranger specific kit. The holes required for the connectors were a little large, but I was/am pleased with the results and the product.

Here are some close ups of the F150 led.

I haven't put these lights on my truck. Moutas has a replacement piece with lights in it. That's what I'm thinking about. Has anyone tried this setup?

No idea about longevity but I'm very happy with the 4 pack from Signature Lux. I got the smoked orange, they blend in with the grill when off and have a nice even glow when on. Pretty sure they're identical to the Indicarbon ones and Indicarbon is cheaper; wish I'd seen them first.

Easy to install, they don't stick out and look like factory unless you get about 6" away; they're not molded in so there are slight gaps. I'm pretty particular and they don't bother me a bit, from a normal viewing distance you don't see them.

Glad you posted this as I have been looking for some lights to add aswell this has helped me out thanks to all that posted going to check out the f150led set.

 

[Shrek The Raptor]

I ordered the f150 leds, should be here Friday, allegedly. I’ll post thoughts once I get em setup. Hoping they get close on color to the Amber DRLs I have

So far none look good
F150LED's look like something off of Alibaba or temu, i pulled them out of the box and immediately sent them back. They include an unnecessary amount of excess wiring, and the price is ridiculous for a couple leds

Moustas4D fit the best especially since it doesn't require any modification because you get a whole new upper grill section but you see the led dots. This is still cheaper shipped from Australia than the ridiculous price F150LED charges, i run this setup until a better option comes out.

The others that dont form fit are a joke.
