Hey, guys/gals. I did some recent lighting upgrades and I thought I'd share some thoughts on them.
First off, I replaced my factory fog lights with Baja Designs Squadron Pros. The difference in light output is amazing!! I got both the clear lenses and the amber lenses and I've run both for awhile now. I finally landed on the amber/yellow lenses due to the dusty climate I live in. Aiming is crucial on these if you plan to run them on the road. It's certainly doable though. Install was a simple plug-n-play affair. BD includes the brackets and the wire harnesses match right up to factory. No error messages, etc.
Next up was some LP6 Pros. I went with the driving combo lenses on these.
They have a four-wire hookup. One wire powers the amber DRL function they have, one wire is for the "low" setting, one is for the "high setting", one is ground. I was able to wire these into the Aux switches on my Rubicon. When I hit aux 1, low comes on. When I hit aux 3 (with aux 1 still on), it switches from low to high. For the amber DRLs on these, I used a quadratec harness to tie into the factory DRLs. I might switch that up and make them come on whenever the engine is running so they'll stay on with my headlights. As for beam patterns, the low is great for general off-road driving. They really do an awesome job of lighting your path and there are side-facing LEDs to help with lighting the sides of the trail. When you switch on high, it turns on additional LEDs that are more of a focused beam that helps you see further down the trail.
If anyone needs anything with respect to wiring, I'd be glad to help.
Finally, I got everything from Lewis @wrecklessoffroad. This guy is great to work with, shipped my stuff super fast, and made me the best deal I could find. I highly recommend him if you're in the market!!

Any double pole double throw switch will work if you wanted a direct replacement on our 640172 harness. The biggest thing to know about the installation is to ensure the low and high beam pins are never powered on at the same time.
Feel free to PM me for it and I can send it over.
