Diode dynamics backlight wiring question

Looking into upgrading my ditch lights and have really started to like the ssc2 pros. My question is, has anyone here installed diode dynamic lights? I see it has a backlight wire that people tap into existing wiring, which I don’t want to do. Could I just wire it to an empty slot on my auxiliary fuse box? Or could I hypothetically bring it to the same auxiliary fuse slot that I would run the lights to? I’m not necessarily hurting for space in the auxiliary fuse box but am curious…

No front license plate provision?

Hi all, new guy here who just bought a 2024 Bronco Sport Heritage about a week ago.
When I finished my paperwork at the dealership last Saturday, the sales guy hands me my front plate & tells me they don’t like to drill the front bumper to mount plates. I live in Wisconsin so it’s mandatory to mount both plates we’re given with motor vehicles. The dealer put the rear plate on when I closed the sale at the store.

So after driving around for a week without the plate, I got up close & person…

Auxbeam Mount location

Hi all. Decided to add a Rough Country 20” bumper mounted LED light bar to my Outerbanks.

I also picked up an auxbeam AS-R40 switch.

With regards to mounting the control box under the hood.

1. Is it safe to mount with heat proof double sided tape?

2. is on top of the air box (just in front of the battery) and ok spot? Or how about the flat box just to the right of the battery? I haven’t looked close at that spot. Is it the fuse box?

On a side note. I was thinking of installing a small…

Post your crossbar/basket/rack combo photos!

It would be cool to see what everyone is coming up with for the roofs of their Broncos!

Personally, I am considering the Ford on-road crossbars with either the Yakima medium Load Warrior basket or the Yakima OffGrid basket. Anyone know if the OffGrid would work?

Looking forward to seeing these combos!

So I was getting my oil changed at the dealership cuz I still had some points. So it’s free and one of the new 24 full size broncos had this sticker on the on the rear glass of the top or the cap or whatever it’s called and I have no idea what the heck it’s supposed to mean.

It’s got a picture of like someone cooking bread on it. Or if you touch the top, your hand turns into a baseball mitt that is blowing bubbles and then you also have a coffee on the ground that’s blowing bubbles cuz…

Anyone get a build date for 2025 OB/BL with Sasquatch package?

I see the order banks are now open for ordering the 2025 Outer Banks or Badlands with the Sasquatch package. Has anyone gotten a build date on these if you’ve ordered one?

Bilstein Shocks

Bilstein Shocks
So the baby shocks are leaking. I’m hoping go upgrade from OEM and noticed the new 2025 comes with a Bilstein upgrade option in the package.

might anyone have spec on the new shocks and if they would fit the 2021 Badlands/First Edition models?

or please chime in if you’ve swapped out to something different.

Ford Ranger Lifts Bull/Nudge Bar

Good evening BS forum!

Just wanted everyones thoughts on Ford Ranger Lifts nudge bar w/ d-ring mounts…

I reached out to them and asked them again to clarify their “extra bracket bracing” they mention on their website for the product and here is what they said, “It’s basically a 1/2”x1/2” square tubing that would bolt to another factory hole. We used to offer this option but discontinued it as the different years changed with other options. Our current design does not require it because we…
