This Paladin lower intake bar completely changed the front-end look of my Maverick at night while still keeping a clean OEM+ look during the day.
I’ve tried a lot of different aftermarket brands over the last couple years, but I keep coming back to @F150LEDs because their stuff actually fits correctly and feels made for the truck instead of being some random universal kit with “figure it out yourself” instructions lol. At this point most of the lighting on my Maverick is from them because everything has worked well together and the quality has been consistently solid.
The install itself was pretty straightforward too. I mainly took my time because I’m picky with wiring and didn’t want my engine bay looking like spaghetti afterward
If you have an FX4 Maverick though, this install would honestly be even easier since the tow hook openings let you get your hands behind the bumper easier. My truck doesn’t have FX4 tow hooks so there were definitely a few “why are my hands too big for this” moments lol.
The video shows how I wired everything up, what the bar looks like during the day, and the actual nighttime light output. I always appreciate when people post real-world footage instead of only product photos, so I tried to show everything I would’ve wanted to see before buying it myself.
A few things I liked:
• super clean fitment
• wireless controller made wiring easier than expected
• brackets/hardware all felt quality
• insanely bright for a 20” bar
• still keeps the truck looking clean instead of overdone
At night this thing is seriously impressive. Huge difference on dark roads, camping trips, mountain drives, and trails. The combo beam pattern lights up both far ahead and the sides of the road really well so it actually feels useful instead of just looking bright in pictures.
Also somehow my dog accidentally matched the truck build perfectly in the video too — white, black, and bronze/brown
apparently he committed to the color scheme too.
Overall just a super solid setup and definitely one of those mods where after installing it you immediately wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.
