LED headlights and matching fogs
I'm interested in upgrading my stock headlights with some LED units. I've read just about everything on here, but what I'm looking for help with is this:
Does Truck Lite, Petersen, or Speaker make drop in/splice in matching fogs? (They definitely have to be Made in the USA, it's just how I roll...sorry)
I have a JCR Offroad Crusader mid width front bumper and would like to have matching lights for both the headlights and fogs. It appeals to the OCD nerd in me.
Any input, experience or advice is appreciated.
Thanks!

JW and TL both have fog lights but from what I hear u gotta do some fab work to the bumper to mount them but again I'm not 100% positive about the mounting anymore but they definitely make them. I got led replacement bulbs off eBay in amber and blue for 30 per set. I'll see if I can find a link

I'm running Truck-Lite 27270C Headlights and Truck-Lite 80275 Fog Lights
I used some Nemesis Industries brackets to mount them ( which I can't find on their site anymore, so you might have to call or something ). Here are the instructions though: https://www.nem-ind.com/Instructions....1_-_FINAL.pdf
I'm not sure how this setup will work in your bumper, but it works good in my factory bumper. The fogs are a little recessed though...

Just installed JW Speaker Head & Fog kits the other week and both are plug 'n play installations (Easy). Headlights fit perfectly in existing housing and Fogs come ready to go already in the mounting hardware (full replace). Only issue was Fogs require splicing so i ordered connectors because i like to make things easy. Also, because our Jeep computers are stupid and don't understand LED lights, you can experience flicker. Fix = anti flicker connector (adapter has capacitor to hold even charge).
Got these adapters from HeadlightRevolution:
Jeep JK Wrangler LED Foglight Housing Adapter Wires
[Bulb Style:2504]
[For LED Light:JW 6145]
Jeep JK Anti-Flicker Harness for JW Speaker LED Headlights
[Bulb Style:H13 (American)]

Cheapest place I found the kits was at Quadratec as for price...double $$ truck lite (took a heavy dent in the mod fund). But I love them, nite and day going from stock.
