Placed my order last night!
Hi CaliraisedLED. Installed your ditch brackets yesterday and am not quite happy how far away it sits and obstructs the view from within the driving position. Its a minor thing but do you have a replacement bracket where the mouting point for the light is farther out to the side and perhaps either swept back and lower? As it is right now it sits almost directly over the lip of the hood and is not far back enough compared to every other brand out there.
Hello, I apologize for your dissatisfaction with the brackets, but these are the only style Ditch bracket we make. We appreciate the input and look into it.
Don't get me wrong. The brackets themselves are really well made and I love the little ports for us to attach zip ties for easy cable management. But it just seems like this bracket was intended for the vehicle from your first post and not tailored to our 5th gens.
In the last picture picture from the first post whichever vehicle that is on has the right placement. but that same bracket on our 5th gens immediately feels out of place.
I think the best design change you guys can do to make this product better is to bend the top section back towards the windshield instead of forward. That combined with a steeper angle tilt to the side will make a major difference. Basically the closer to the A pillar the better.
for now I will fabricate a plate to get the positioning right. Hopefully you guys will make revisions to your product to make it better.
If it costs $135 I will order this right now but your website tells me its $161.:hungry:These are great first additional lighting. I would recommend our 27w side projecting pods. They give a great overall lighting on the sides and front. Heres a picture of the output (no headlights). With the link I provided you can choose the drop down bar and select them. Its 135.00 for the complete kit, Brackets, 2 pods and plug and play wiring harness. That's no tax and free shipping at your door. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Can this be seen from inside the car? The a pillar is so big in this truck that I have almost hit someone that has been walking by. If it adds to the thickness I’d have gonpass
I had the brackets installed and in my opinion it doesn't block the view all that much, or at least it isn't noticeable enough that it will alter my driving.
