Rubicon Anniversary Edition Bumper Fog Lights
Can anyone who has this bumper confirm which fog lights fit in this? I am getting one locally that doesn't come with stock fog lights. I have read that it uses a different bracket. I don't think the fog lights from my 2007 will fit. A Mopar part number would be helpful.

Congrats on the new Bumper. Its one of my favorite overall JK bumpers. We have an upgraded Foglight Replacement kit for that bumper. Check it out.

You just need to purchase the 10A Foglight bracket and even your OEM fogs will fit, however you will have to extend your factory wires to reach the new ones. A few other options are Inspired cubes, or JW speaker fogs, which still require a bracket, I used the one from Rubitrux Maximus-3 Rubicon X/10A JW Speaker Fog Light Brackets
It is my understanding that if you already have fog lights that fit a stock bumper,they will fit the bumper.

I'd rather not have to purchase a bracket just to use the stock fog lights, which is what I plan on doing. Can someone confirm this? I just picked up the bumper tonight and I can't wait to put it on. I got the bumper, skid plate and all the hardware for $700 from a guy locally on Craigslist. It was basically brand new. He had it on his JK for a month before he took it off.

I am almost 100% certain you will need the brackets to run any fog light other than the oem factory 10A ones as they mount differently than a standard fog light. I had to purchase a set of brackets to mount my JWS in my 10A bumper. When I was researching fog lights I did not come across any specifically made for the 10A bumper (although I may have not researched every brand on the market).

Thanks to the generosity of forum member FRSH2DF, I have a set of the brackets and fog lights on the way. I just need to figure out how to either extend the fog light wiring via splicing and heat shrink, or make my own extensions. I'd rather go the route of adding wiring extensions instead of splicing the wires in case I ever want to return it to stock, and just to avoid any possibility of a short. I know that the Mopar instructions themselves recommend heat shrink but I don't know if I feel like splicing the wires. I've done it before, but I'd rather do a plug and play install for this. Apparently an aftermarket harness doesn't exist as a standalone part for the JKs like it does for the TJs. I think it will need to be at least 12".
If anyone has any ideas please let me know!

I went from a stock plastic front bumper to the Hard Rock and I thought I was going to have to splice and heat wrap- the whole deal. But once I got the old bumper off and was checking things out, it all just worked. Had to rework the wrap a little, but the stock wiring was long enough. Maybe I just got lucky- but if so, I hope you do too!
I can't believe the MOPAR kit doesn't just include something like this.

That appears to be the case - though it's not obvious anywhere online! I plan on creating a write-up when I go to install mine to help out others who may be in the same boat as me!
