How To: Install 2022+ Ford Maverick Add-On Fog Light Kit | Diode Dynamics

[@Jasona1976]

Wish you guys sold side mirror directional signals for Mavericks.

[@matthewhodgson1603]

THE BEST installation video I have seen by FAR! Plan to add these in time.

[@diodedynamics]

Wow, thanks for the support! 🤝🤘

[@Allsopcd]

Absolutely thrilled to finally see an OEM looking fog kit for the Maverick. Install instructions could not be any clearer and paced perfectly. Hats off to DD!👏👏

[@pfendi]

Installed, I’m happy with them. You really need to trim that bezel a bit more than just the outline. Trim, then fit it, and check the front to see if it’s fitting flush. If not, remove and trim again. Do it right, take your time the first time. I had to pull off my bumper 3 times over a few days to get it all right, due to a lousy trim job not allowing the left light to be adjusted up enough. They do not have that much adjustment built in, so getting it flush to the bumper is pretty necessary. I had a slight gap at the top that I thought was fine, but it really threw the light off a few too many degrees out of the adjustable range.

[@diodedynamics]

Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@HappyPower]

Thanks CJ, looking forward to installing these!

[@diodedynamics]

You bet! We look forward to seeing it installed!

[@gustangtermi_gt5007]

So cool, been waiting for a kit like this since I got my maverick in fall Of 2022.

[@diodedynamics]

We are happy to deliver!

[@Dobester95]

Fingers crossed you guys will make a kit for the 2025!! Just ordered one!

[@diodedynamics]

We'll be sure to confirm fitment! Stay tuned for more info!

[@Burrellimages]

Solid install instructions! I love that your parts are all plug and play. Makes for a cleaner install.

[@diodedynamics]

Thanks for the support! We totally agree!

[@abelignatious9712]

Thank you for the video, is the install same for hybrid too?

[@diodedynamics]

@@abelignatious9712 yes it is, this video was installed on a Hyrbid Maverick in the video.

[@abelignatious9712]

@@diodedynamics thank you guys.

[@brucesandlin3219]

Bought fog lights in Jan. After watching installation video I decided to have local body shop guy (who loves modifications), to install them. Cost me $700 but I am totally satisfied. They look great and function great. Thanks DD.

[@diodedynamics]

That's great to hear! Thanks for the support!

[@SuperchargedJester]

Impressive installation video. I think these will sell very well. 👍

[@diodedynamics]

We appreciate the support!

[@rsngrl]

great idea for the speaker, you really thought of everything. looks great!

[@diodedynamics]

Thanks so much! We're glad you like it!

[@Allsopcd]

The F-150 has a headlamp control knob that doubles as a fog on/off switch. I understand it can be easily switched out from the Maverick control and I was wondering if your wiring harness would accommodate wiring to the F-150 control knob.

[@diodedynamics]

Surely, some custom wiring would have to be done, however, we have not tested the functionality and compatibility of this harness with a custom control knob. Feel free to give us a call at 314-205-3033 Monday-Friday 10 a.m.- 5 p.m. CST, or shoot us an email at [e-mail], and our in-house US service team would be happy to help you with that.

[@EjayMenchavez]

Mine just came in the mail, I'm so excited to install it!

[@001saucer]

lights look great but I would rather hire C J to do the job, lol

[@SuperJOVega]

I'll be good to make a kit for the FX4 which has tow hooks but some space left to add smaller lights

[@diodedynamics]

We'll be sure to pass that along to our engineering team for future consideration!

[@gilbertgarcia1867]

Best tool to cut will be the multi tool for the straight cut.

[@jayphilbin2871]

Question: At 11:47 connecting power to battery. I have a hybrid and the 12 volt battery is located under the rear passenger seat - is there a positive battery terminal located under the hood to use, or does an extended wire need to be routed back to the battery under the seat?

[@Fjdjdjw]

This video is using a hybrid as a demo, so just follow the instructions per the video. It's attached to a positive post.

[@jeffrogers2180]

I'll never get that music out of my head...

[@Blue84Stang]

AND they deactivate when your high beam headlights are activated, to maintain FMVSS compliance.... Right? Because you did actually connect the red deactivation wire to the high beam circuit, and not actually just tucked it away... Right?

[@diodedynamics]

Hey there, great question! The activation, number, mounting location, and use of fog lamps on non-commercial vehicles is defined by each state - you can check local laws for requirements in your area! Thanks for checking them out!

[@OriginalTrilogy]

So what you are saying is that the fogs will stay on when the highbeams are turned on right?

[@diodedynamics]

@@OriginalTrilogy That is correct, yes.

[@Ituhata]

@@diodedynamics out of curiosity, is that what the unused deactivation lead was for?

[@diodedynamics]

@@Ituhata In other applications, yes! Unfortunately, there is no power wire for the high beam on the Maverick.

[@dennyporter2447]

Nice informative installation process!

[@diodedynamics]

Glad you liked it! 💪

[@dennyporter2447]

@@diodedynamics I am ordering it soon..

[@Fjdjdjw]

For those with the XL/XLT does the wiring change since the DRL are the low beam headlights?

[@diodedynamics]

The installation should be the exact same!

[@Its_YourImagination]

Very smart kit !!

[@diodedynamics]

Thanks for the support! 💪

[@kdc300z]

Can they be installed with an on off switch? I'd like to separate them from my other lights if possible. Thanks.

[@diodedynamics]

These can be installed however you would like, however the included fog light harness would not be used. Instead you would use our Dual-output Light Duty Harness to have only manual functions from a toggle switch. Here's the link for you to check out! www.diodedynamics.com/light-duty-dual-output-4-pin-wiring-harness.html

[@MrPoloadvance95]

Great looking Fogs! thank you I can't wait to order mine 😃 the switch that ends inside the cabin can technically turn them on and off so they don't turn on all the time with headlights?

[@diodedynamics]

That is correct! If you turn the switch on, the fog lights will only turn on when the low beams are on, and with the switch turned off, it will disable the functions of the fog light!

[@EjayMenchavez]

@@diodedynamics Sorry just to clarify, when the switch is off, the lights are off, when the switch is on the lights are on, but what about the yellow running lights? Are they on while the switch is off, or are they on when the switch is on and the headlights are off? That was a lot lol

[@diodedynamics]

@@EjayMenchavez When the switch is turned off, nothing will turn on. When the switch is turned on, the amber backlight will turn on automatically with the parking lights, and the fog lights will automatically turn on with the low beams!

[@EjayMenchavez]

@@diodedynamics oh I see! Maybe I should have got the yellow lights 🤔 too late haha! I can't wait to install them. They look so great and there's no way to tell they're not OEM.

[@jayw900]

Really don’t like the T connectors. In the salt belt the wiring will rust in that spot.

[@diodedynamics]

For those that are concerned about rust and corrosion, we offer dielectric grease on our website! www.diodedynamics.com/dielectric-grease-packet-5g.html

[@lakendrickwilliams4053]

I installed mine last night and they are only staying amber so confused. Followed directions step by step.

[@diodedynamics]

Hey there! You may have to toggle the switch to the on position in order to keep factory functions on. If you tried that and it doesn't work, you can always give our team a call and they can help you troubleshoot! Hours: Monday-Friday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. CDT Email: [e-mail] Phone: [phone]

[@ebenezerwheezer2957]

I wish you made side mount turn / running signals for the mirror or for the side xlt emblem. As nice as they are,Living in the desert Southwest we we don't get too much fog to justify fog lamps

[@diodedynamics]

We totally understand that! Keep in mind that fog lamps also are very beneficial in dusty, desert weather, as well as providing extra light in front of the truck. We have a video going over all of our Stage Series products as well you can check out! The link is below: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6CphZJmm719msk

[@mitasmight3121]

What if I have a button cluster from another Ford car that is identical to the one in the Maverick, but has its own separate button for fog lights?

[@diodedynamics]

You do have the ability to wire this kit however you see fit! The best option for you is likely replace the included toggle switch and tap into the Fog button you currently have!

[@antoniolozano5590]

Will this fog light kit be compatible with a Hybrid 2025 XLT maverick?

[@diodedynamics]

That's a great question! We have not had access to the 2025 Maverick. We cannot confirm fitment at this time, sorry about that!

[@hunterhogan9326]

why is there a speaker in the front of the car anyway?! anyone?!

[@diodedynamics]

Great question! This speaker is only installed on hybrid models. Hybrid vehicles are equipped with speakers to alert pedestrians to their presence, especially at low speeds when they are operating in all-electric mode and produce less noise than traditional vehicles. This is due to safety concerns that pedestrians and cyclists, especially those with visual impairments, may not be able to hear them coming.

[@bajacore]

Is there a kit in the works for the trim levels with tow hooks? If so, will they be wired inline with the headlights similar to the rear light kits you offer?

[@diodedynamics]

Unfortunately, we do not have current plans for the models with tow hooks at this time, however, you can check out JJC customs for a couple more options! Here is his website: jjc-llc.com/

[@bajacore]

@@diodedynamicsAre there any plans for a plug-n-play harness similar to the rear light pods? Or as an option for those who run with fogs on 24/7? Not having to tap into factory wiring and run ground wires and switches would be nice. Obviously those in states with laws prohibiting it would need the current harness with the toggle switch.

[@Soul_Flow_]

This is too difficult for me. I will pay someone to install it for me....

[@diodedynamics]

It's not for everyone, however, it's simpler than it seems!
