I think both @BajaDesigns and KC Highlights (and maybe others) make kits that can replace your stock fog lights with one of their products, where their products has an adapter (if not direct plug) so they act as your new fog lights.

Outside of those kits, it may depend on what light you chose. Is the amperage correct? Is there a high beam/low beam?

Yes sir! We have a few kits available for the JL that uses the Squadron Sport, Squadron Pro, and Squadron SAE. As far as wiring, we use a wiring adapter that mates the factory connector to the connector we use on our lights. In some models, we encounter a flicker with the Jeep's canbus system. To fix that, we use our anti-flicker harness. https://www.bajadesigns.com/products/Anti-Flicker-2-pin-Wiring-Harness.asp. I would verify with the bumper manufacture if it uses the stock fog light bracket style so we can ensure which kit you need.

I have the Squadron Pro combo beam lights in my fog positions on the bumper. Incredible lighting. Plug n play harness.

Another vote for the Baja Designs lights, they are "plug N play" when ordered for vehicle specific.

I have done this with Rigid Industry cube lights. You will need a Tazer so that they stay on if you go from low beam to hi beams on your normal lights. If that matters to you?

Any pics of the light throw? How do they look when off? Thx!
No pix of throw. But it's pretty incredible. I have the combination wide/spot Pro version about 9000 lumens. You will not out drive them in a Jeep. The Sport version is cheaper and throws about half the light.

curious as to how you plan on using factory fogs when you get a bumper without holes?

Do you sell just the plug and play adaptors? I bought squadron sport lights to put on an aftermarket bumper with no fog holes. Wanted to use as my new fog lamps when I attached them to the new bumper.

They will, but you might need to reach out to them directly on their site. I think ultimately I ended up calling them to place my order for the harnesses.

Our LED fog lights are Plug-&-Play for the Wrangler JL and do not require you to purchase any other adapters, cables, anti-flicker harnesses, etc to work properly with the Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator :like:
