CyberTruck Co Fog Lights installed

[Roger@CYBERTRUCKco]

Looks like you went with the XL Sport Fog / Ditch version? Are they too bright to use them on-road, and/or do you have the Baja Designs High/Low switch wiring? I’m considering the Squadron Pro so it’s not too blinding for other drivers, don’t need these for off-road, really want them more as fog/driving lights for big snow storm driving. But I don’t think the Squadrons are can be used with the OnX controls.

@CYBERTRUCKco would you know which setup is better as a driving/fog light application, particularly to overcome the snow/slush blocking my factory headlights issue?

Either option is a good option, but the XL’s have 35% more lumens, so much brighter. We have the Squadrons on our truck now and they work great.

"mount my fog lights horizontally since the beam pattern only works at that position." ?? I have the XL Sports, 2 Spot's on top and 2 Wides on bottom - that's the way it's supposed to be isnt it? Beam pattern on Garage Door at close range was center (spot) and to each side (Wide)...so think it's right. Will test tonight when it gets dark. Also bough the "wide" lenses direct from BD - eg all 4 are wide, will see what works best.

I may have to pull in summer and paint the brackets black, we'll see!

I have the Baja Squadron SAE fogs – they have to be mounded horizontally as there is a specific beam pattern that makes them road-legal.

Baja Design make an SAE road legal fog that I installed.

Yeah I’m in the same boat as you, lots of open hwy driving in UT/WY/ID/CO etc, lots of snowstorm driving to ski races and ski days. Want a plan B for the stock headlights when they get salt-slushed-over and need better visibility in heavy snow and fog (also contemplating ways to dim/disable the running light for intense snow).

Yes XL Sport with Combo Driving Lense (white) - so 2 wide and 2 spot. My thinking, and havent fully tested to confirm. No High/Low switch installed.

1) For Snowstorms / Fog: Yellow Lense Cover, point downward vs. distance, maybe pitch a bit toward the sides...from playing around last night (no actual snow experience as of yet), pattern seemed very good (see pic with yellow lenses and look at pattern on ground), angled down I think they'll be ok for other drivers...standing at a distance they seemed reasonable...going to have wife drive opposite direction in her car to confirm.
2) For summer: remove yellow lense covers, angle a bit higher but still below headlights, only use for offroad or middle of BFE (Wyoming, Co Mountains)...

Wild Card: Bought Wide Angle Lenses (all 4 are wide angle vs. 2 and 2 spots) - and will use these if needed to protect against pissing off other drivers. Preference is driving combo as if I can get that to work, offers the most flexibility with just changing covers and or position of lights.

FYI - Baja Has Fog Lights specifically for just Inclement weather, these plus CyberTruckCo brackets could be what you are looking for (or could ask if they'd do a setup for you) - not as flexible but SAE Rated so no concern with legalities. If I didnt spend so much time in mountains / low volume of other cars I'd consider these....and may still do so depending upon how the Tesla Light Bar performs.

We didn't offer these yet because the 2430 lumens is pretty low compared to the Sport's at 3200 lumens (cheaper) or the Pro's at 4100 lumens (slightly more). But they are road legal...

Pretty Straight Forward, 2 butt connectors for wires from truck to step down converter, the rest is plug and play.

Where did you connect the step down converter to? We created a bumper for my CT and built in some 24V lights and my electrical handyman and I are having trouble figuring out where we should connect to. We ran a 12v wire from the trailer hitch for off/on.

Just out of curiosity, what tires and offset do you have?

1.5” offset. The tires rub when the height is set at High. Just a light rub, but it is a rub, on the front tires. I’m aware of this for the few times I am at High. No biggie.

My wife and I were just driving through country roads last night with a ton of fog, and I too discovered that my Cybertruck doesn't have fog lights installed.

Funny enough I was also on the Cybertruckco website a few days ago and saw these foglights and thought they looked cool. One, possibly stupid, question I did have is, when you install them, how do you switch them on and off? Is it a button/switch you have to install?

Few more pics

Are you able to switch the color, they look white I. The first pic, amber in the second.

you can get the lights with yellow lenses if you only want yellow. I bought the lights with white lenses and then bought / use their yellow lens covers so that I can have white light in summer and yellow light in winter / snow. Covers take about 30 sec to install.

They turn on using the factory aux switch in the "outlets and mods" screen.
