So I have searched the forum and seemingly the whole of the internet and found nothing. Any help would be appreciated.
I replaced my factory 2020 JLU Sport bumper with the Tactik stubby bumper from Quadratec. The factory LED fog lights’ bracket doesn’t align. Went back to the Quadratec page and discovered I needed a special bracket.
Purchased the brackets and….WTH??
They don’t align with my fog lights in any way!
My question: is there a way to remove the factory led from the “housing”? It seems like it’s meant to be all one piece.

No there is not it's a sealed unit. I'd ask Quadratec why they are not fitting. I do know the OE steel bumper vs the OE plastic bumper use different fog lights and bumper will usually say which....


Just noticed there are a few YT installs on your bumper. "Overlandvet" has a detailed one

Thanks! And yes I’ve been throughYT as well. Overlandvet’s is sped up with no dialogue for the build. And then at the end he says he installed the fog lights with only two bolts. And the view shows he installed them upside down!

i will take your advice and reach out to Quadratec. Thanks again!

For anyone who stumbles upon this thread, I spoke with Quadratec and there’s nothing to be done, no bracket exists. So I either need to buy new LED lights that match the fitment or return the bumper.

Shame since the reason I chose this bumper was this line in the description: “Factory Fog Light Compatible: The integrated fog light holes accept the factory OEM fog lights.”
Needless to say, this is not true for Sport models with OEM LED fog lights

If these are the lights you have, these brackets should do the trick.

Those are indeed my lights. And those are the brackets I purchased. They do not fit. The brackets are apparently for halogen lights. Thanks for trying to help though!
