Diode Dynamics SS3 - Mach 1 Fog Light Adapters (3D Printed)

[Mach1NA]

New SS3's available in dual color output! Pretty cool option if you're not sure what color to go with. The power level is advertised between Sport and Pro. Only a few left though.

I finally installed my kit using conventional SS3 Sport driving beams in the upper grill and a single SS3 Max fog beam mounted to the bumper beam in the lower grill for foggy mornings. I've got SS3 Max fog lights replacing the factory fog lights on my wife's Subaru and the output actually overwhelms the headlights. Once I finish final mounting my 3-relay pack and switch panel, and complete some other mods, I'll post some images.

I did it!!!!! Took some time to line up schedules but made it work!!! Easy and straight forward.
Ended up just wiring to my headlights so when they come these do and went with the
SS3 Yellow Sport LED Pod (pair)
SAE Fog in Amber

Thank you so much @Mach1NA if your on the fence just do it the kit is amazing.

My compliments to Eric for a truly outstanding and well engineered product. I used SS3 Sport driving beams in the fog light openings and one SS3 Max fog beam under the bumper. I'm old school so I used three micro relays to have the option of manual control or automatic control of the beam options and to insure the Fog beam and Driving beams aren't on at the same time. The micro relays are the same size that Ford uses but they have the standard primary switching blade widths instead of Ford's unconventional thin blades and the female sockets are readily available in pre-wired 4-pin and 5-pin configurations. While I was running wires through the firewall, I also added an extension adapter for the starter solenoid relay and tapped in a simple kill switch. The kill switch system fits within the existing fuse block and the lighting relays are attached to the side of the fuse block and tucked under an extended cover I made from a second cover. Aiming is spot on and the modern SS3 LED pods sure pack a punch compared to obsolete incandescent and HID technology. All the switching is concealed within the sunglasses cubby by utilizing a switch panel (cheap eBay score) from a nitrous system.

@John S that is a really nice set up! I really like the rest of your mods as well. Really contemplating on switching over to the Pro version of SS3's or adding a light bar below the bumper beam, mounted in a similar way like you did. Great job on the install!

Pro might be the sweet spot for SS3 street lighting. I've got a pair of Max fog lights replacing the OEM fog lights on my wife's Subaru and they are overkill for the street and overwhelm the headlights. The single Max fog light I mounted under the Mach 1 bumper beam should be enough to cut through morning fog and, hopefully, isn't too much of an obstruction for airflow to the radiator. The Sport driving beams in the grill are a nice supplement to the high beams but they don't have the throw I thought they'd have, and, if I would do it over again, I'd splurge for the Pro version and still maintain SAE/DOT compliance. The Alpharex headlights also made a noticeable lighting improvement. All these lighting mods add up to a pricy upgrade (wait for good discounts) over the stock lighting but the performance improvement is worth it to me and makes night driving more enjoyable.

@John S that is a crazy setup. Glad to see people embracing this.

I want to thank @Mach1N for putting this kit together! Also for helping me troubleshoot some issues with the posi-tap wiring. I got the kit installed today and cannot believe how much better(and more aggressive) the front end looks. 10/10! I will eventually upgrade to the OEM foglight switch
