Now, would the D2's work as a direct replacement for factory fogs since they draw less power?

They should, they should be drawing less power than the factory fogs

I think all you need for a plug n play install is a pair of rigid duallys and the BDF brackets and a pigtail connector to let you splice the rigid power cables

The guy developing the brackets said that he had used them both directly wired to the factory fog feed and also with a separate harness

My only question other than how soon can I buy a pair of these brackets is would it be too bright if I used the dually d2's vs the regular duallys...

I'm afraid with the d2's it will be super bright like high beams vs lights I can leave on with the low beams...

Exactly what I was wondering.
I run my "fog" lights at night all the time on low beam. It's the best way to see the damn potholes.

x3 on this thought. I was thinking the driving beam would prob be OK for the D2 duallys...that is what I was hoping to run

I hope these are available soon, & that the Dually's aren't to bright to use on road. BDF mentioned on his facebook page that he got some flicker w/his new amber dually's, running them direct. Does anyone know if the dually's can be wired like the SMS headlight harness, using the oem connector as the trigger while drawing power from the battery?

Is there a harness out there that keys off of the factory fogs??

That would be a great option to have

I thought the harnesses were only available for the headlamp

The SMS harness is for the headlights, I'm hoping there is a way to do the same to the fogs.

It is a bit unconventional...my understanding it is one guy with some great ideas having these things made on the side...he has northridge4x4 doing all of his sales now

I got my rear light mount through northridge
