    Anyone have experience with both the sport and the pro? Wondering which has a better pattern to light the ditches. I don’t care so much about brightness. Sounds like they’re both beyond sufficient. But I’m wanting to get the one that best puts light out to the sides.

    I have the Pros, they're awesome. I didn't know they came out with a tier above the Pros...damn 500$ though.

    I bought a pair of the Sport's and Pro's. Both are the SAE Style. I will say the Pro's through A Lot more light then the Sport's but if all you are going to do with them is light the ditches I think you could get away with the Sport's.

    One last thing. What is the advantage of the amber lights? I'll mainly be on road.

    Snow and fog. If you've ever driven in fog, notice how you can't see anything because the light from your truck reflects back to you. Yellow light doesn't reflect as much.

    Oh, also, they look badass

    The selective yellow color temperature is reflected back at you less (during fog or snow) than the higher color temperature of the white fogs.

    Also @memario1214 will get you set up if you want to order a pair :thumbsup:

    Love mine. They are the sport. Was driving home last night and didn’t realize my headlights were off because the fogs were on and they’re so bright I could drive with just those on.

    Can you aim the sport/pro fogs just like OEM? To lower the cutoff if necessary?

    Sure can. The mount they come with allows you to pivot them up or down as needed
