I Tried Adding Bumper Lights to a 2025 F-150... Here’s the Problem

We install the Maxpeedingrods Driving Auxiliary Light Universal 5inch pod lights on a 2025 Ford F-150 with the Diode Dynamics Stage Series Bumper Mounting Bracket Kit (21-26 F-150), and we found one issue almost immediately that anyone with a newer truck needs to know about. These brackets are marketed for 2021-2026 F-150s, but on this install, things did not line up the way you might expect. So if you’re trying to add easy bumper lights to your F-150, want discreet offroad lights, or you’re wondering whether 2024-2026 will fit a 2021+ Diode Dynamics bracket, this video shows what we ran into and how we made it work.
