Backup Lighting Upgrade

Patent Pending · Dec 10, 2021

Both options don't hang low or block anything. It's more the look I am asking about. Flush mount will attach to a plate with bolts on the faceplate and the pods will mount on a single downward facing stud.

I personally prefer the flush mount look, but not at the expense of simplicity of the install if that factors in. I have no problem with complex installs, but I would like to reserve that time for something other than a lighting upgrade. Just my $.02.

Both require the same amount of work to install (which is pretty easy) but I like how you think!

Following. I'd be down for a set if they look nice and work well

I think the flush looks much better

Agreed!

BD has brackets available for sale. More info in this thread. I have S2s mounted on my truck which run off the aux wires. I haven't bothered to wire to the reverse wire, but info on that in the following thread, as well. https://www.ram-trx.com/threads/baja-designs-s2-sport-reverse-lights-installation-help.4625/

Hello All,

Am I right to think these will NOT fit? This site lists a few different options and the filter, even when set to TRX, shows these:

I’m excited to see what you come up with. I’m sure it’s going to be kick ass and go well with my behind the grill light kit.

I just moved my Baja design S2 from my raptor to my trx using the brackets that I got from BD. I used the yellow lenses because it cuts to the fog better and can be used off road... wired them to a aux switch..done!

How difficult is this install? Pretty easy to connect the harness and route it all? I don’t have my TRX yet, hoping next week.. but planning ahead.

In my opinion it is pretty easy but I’ve been told I’m not the best judge because of my background. We are finalizing a plug and play harness to prevent the need to splice any wires. Right now two wires have to be spliced and two more if you decide to hook it up to the trucks supplied upfitter switches. All of that being said, we will do written/ online instructions and working on a video as well. Let us know if you have any other questions.

@Shifts_And_Grins Can these be hooked up only to the Aux switch once you get the plug/play harness completed? Thanks

No. The wiring harness that comes with them now comes with a switch. There are many options. You can hook up no switches at all and the red backlight will turn on when your tail lights are on. The white main beam will turn on when reverse lights are on. You would have no manual control with that option. You can keep the automatic option explained above and also manual control using the supplied switch, wiring to upfitter switches, or any other switch system such as switch pros, s-Pod etc.

Ok thanks for your prompt reply. I forgot they have the red backlighting which is really cool. I will be getting on your order list for these soon

You’re welcome. Let me know if we can help in any other way or with anything else. We should have the brackets in stock this week and we are working on getting the lights back in stock Through Diode Dynamics. Hopefully when you’re ready to order everything will ship within a business day.
