Same here... but the oversized bolt doesn't bother me at all. Sorry if that's an eyesore for you. ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ They are FREE! So I have no rights to complain. I feel blessed recieving goodies from DD. Those little aesthetic look can be adjusted/or changed later on.

Despite the sweet-ass lights, my first thought was also "oof that bolt looks a little too close to paintwork for my liking".

I'll second Diode Dynamics quality though - standout stuff!

Awesome post and top-tier setup on your Maverick! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Is this a set of aftermarket ditch light brackets by chance paired with our pods?

We reviewed our kit and the clearance is higher and the bolt is shorter for the users concerned.

Just want to bring this to our engineering team's attention if needed ๐Ÿ›

I was finally able to install a pair of Diode Dynamics SS3 LED PODS SAE in Yellow + backlight. Man o man! These things were built with love. From the quality standpoint and functionality it offers. Hats off to you @Diode Dynamics! I salute you and the rest of your team. The light beams are definitely suited for off-road capability. Did I mention how much I love the backlight option?

If you want to get a pair of these baddies.

Have a great week Mav owners! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿค™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Can we assume you received these lights free in return for your "unbiased" review? Or did you purchase them?

I have mine sitting at its lowest setting. You can adjust the height of the lower bottom bracket, and there is enough space for you to slide in a open wrench for me to tighten the protruding "oversized" bolts.

Those are the brackets that @diodedynamics sent me along with my Swag Pack ๐Ÿ˜Ž. I have the lower brackets set up at its lowest setting. I preferred mine this way so it's not sticking way up in the air. I guess I did that so the long extended "oversized" bolt has less visibility, but it doesn't bother me at all. They hardware were all included in the kit that I received. I'm still very thankful. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’ฏ

I think they used the "SAE" often in their product titles with the intention to let customers/people know that they're "SAE" approved. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

But you're absolutely right... they're offroad lights. You also have the option to turn on the backlight for city or street driving which I totally love. (See 2nd image). ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿพ

One of their @Diode Dynamics Account Representative reached out to me via IG l, and was asked if I was willing to sign up under Diode Dynamics Affiliate Program. So, I did! No, reviews necessary. Just here to mainly market their products, and I am now benefiting from it while using their awesome products.

Our SSC2 or SS3 LED pods with our ditch light for use our combo optic which is for off-road use only for users concerned. This kit is not advertised as "road-legal" on our listing.

https://www.diodedynamics.com/stage-series-backlit-ditch-light-kit-for-2022-2024-ford-maverick.html

However, we do offer SAE-compliant products/pods in our SSC1, SSC2, and SS3 LED pods when mounted and aimed according to your state law.
