Hello,
This is my first post, but I've used the forum on multiple occasions for help purchasing flashlights. Based on the wealth of knowledge, I was hoping to get some insight on my inquiry.
I purchased an all steel rear bumper for my 2017 Tacoma and it came with cut outs for flush mount Rigid SR-Q lights to serve as auxiliary backup lights. I don't feel that I need more reverse lighting, so I was thinking of using their red diffused lenses (Rigid Part# 90164) and wiring them to only come on in hi mode when I activate my fog lamps, thereby serving as rear facing fog lamps that are common in Europe. I live in an area that gets pretty bad fog in the mornings during certain times of the year. I have also already verified that this is perfectly legal in the state of California.
My issue is that $300 seems like a hefty price to pay for 2 lights with 4 led's each in them. I was curious if anyone knew of a suitable alternative for these expensive lights. I would prefer to use the cutouts that are already on the bumper. The cutouts are a rectangular shape with a centered "ear" at either side. They are 2" tall, and 5 1/4" wide. The center of the "ears" is 5 3/4" wide.
I realize that this cutout was specifically made to fit this specific light, but if there are any alternatives that someone could enlighten me with, I would be very grateful!
Thank for any help!
