Ford Performance Rigid Light Installation

[Marc S]

If anyone else has installed the ford performance rigid ditch lights on the hood brackets, does your driver side light get hit by the window wiper when it’s in motion? I’ve tried adjusting that side a couple times and it’s now pretty minimal but it still touches it enough to make it move slightly. Small annoyance but I just don’t want it moving over time. Curious if anyone has them installed and it clears the blade. If so, any tips that you might have?

I installed them as far out as I could. That meant giving a good solid tug to pull the u-clip as far to the outside of the vehicle as possible, and then the light bracket must be pulled such that the light goes as far as it can. That was the first position I installed them in, and they have no clearance issues at all. Also make sure your hood bracket is properly aligned to the bolts underneath, if it's crooked you'll have issues.

Thank you! I’ll give that a shot tomorrow!

opted to give it a shot and that method worked perfectly. Embarrassed I hadn’t thought of trying that. Thanks for the tip!
