What is the part number for these lights? I don’t see the black background on the BD website.

This comes with the SAE lights. They have not updated their website with the new photos yet of the SAE lights

I wasn’t sure if it looked a little busy at first or what I really thought about the latest SAE’s darker look. But after having the lights on the truck for a couple of hours, you don’t really notice it.

I have Amber Wide Cornering, SAE’s new style and Sport Driving Combo’s.

I’m picky so aligning everything just right had me going back and forth comparing heights and spacing. Brackets include a ton of adjustability which is nice!

I’m still on the fence regarding the SAE performance. What light it puts out just in front of the truck is pretty good. But the area in where it puts the light is really limited and cuts off sharply. I’d like to be able to throw it out a little further, just below the headlights. But it won’t and basically scatters. So it’s up close to the front of the truck or nothing. It’s a good addition and something like a good OEM fog would do. I would have liked to have seen how the SAE’s performed with the older non compliant lens however. I will further drive and test.

Was never a big Amber fan, but WoW these things killer! Talk about shining out a bright hot colored light.

The driving combo’s are very bright and penetrating as well. A lot of distant light from them. Save these for empty or off road.

The new LP4s have arrived. These are some mighty fine little lights (well they are not THAT little, but next to an LP9 they look so tiny). Bout the same size as an XL80 actually but with friggin side lighting and back lighting!

I’m sure it’s been covered but I’m looking for A-pillar lights from you guys. What all is involved in the install? Any drilling or modifications have to be done?

The vast majority of A-pillar light mounts are completely bolt on. No modification to the truck required. As for lighting, throw a set of lights on the mounts and you're good to go. The XL80's are definitely one of the most popular option for the A-pillars, but there's plenty of options for some killer lights from Baja Designs!

Let us know if we can get you hooked up!

It's actually 100% Bolt on. Baja has a kit for the Gen2 Raptors which includes the brackets, Squadron lights and wiring (which taps into your factory upfitters). Their kits are available in Sport or Pro Squadrons. Of course you can also put just about any other Baja Designs light on some aftermarket pillars as well (such as the XL Series, LP4, LP6 and heck even the LP9 if you REALLY want a big light).

Here is the Baja Designs A-Pillar Kit where they include everything (we also offer custom kits with everything you need based on the light you want, just shoot me a message)
