Wanted to share because it can be sketchy buying stuff meant for overseas rangers in hopes they'll fit a US model

I wanted some extra lighting on my truck because I live in a super dark area with no street lights. I toyed with the idea of A-pillar lights but I had them on my jeep and didnt like how they reflected off the hood and they don't help much in snow storms. I did some searching and found Stedi, an Australian light company. I did some researching and was pretty confident that everything would work in the US Ranger, so I bought their Ranger Raptor Inner Grill Mount, ST3K 21.5" LED slim Light Bar, and Switch Panel for the Ford Ranger MK2, MK3, Raptor an Everest.

https://www.stedi.com.au/

Everything Fit great. The switch panel literally just pops into place - probably the easiest install I've ever done. The grill mounts work perfectly in the Stage3 Raptor Grill, provided I drilled some easy holes. It's super sturdy despite the stigma surrounding grill lightbar mounts. The wiring harness worked well too - but instead of using the provided headlight tie in, I tied into a fuse to get keyed power. Here's some pics! Definitely need a whiter headlight bulb now.

Enjoy!

That switch panel looks AWESOME!

But they need some novelty switches like Missiles, XtraBoost, and Plaid.

As far as i know, the switch panel is the only official part thats compatible with the US model. The lightbar mount for the grill was compatible with an aftermarket Raptor grill with some modification. I was very thrilled to find all these fit my truck perfectly!

I just got my switch panel. Does yours clip on in the back? I'm unsure if it just sits there or if it's suppose to hook onto something

Yes, it hooks onto the back between those panels and then snaps into the front

I'll have to look closer. It looked like the panels were flush with each other. Might have saw wrong

You have to push in on the farthest one to hook into the other. They're not flush on my truck at least

Ohhhh! I thought that was hard plastic that wouldn't move. I understand now. Thank you!

I have the same Stedi brackets with their ST1K light bar. Painted the brackets for a stealthier look.

Every time I get the bottom hooked in and snap the top in, the bottom comes out. There aren't a lot of options here. I wonder if the Lariat trim is slightly different?
