Morimoto A-Pillar Ditch Light Brackets: 18+ Jeep JL/JT - BAF036

2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL & 2020+ Jeep Gladiator JT A-Pillar Ditch Light Brackets

BOLT ON BRIGHTER: The Morimoto A-Pillar LED system is the perfect solution for more light, aimed exactly where you want it. From long-range spot-lights for high speed driving to ditch lights to illuminate the side of the road, our A-Pillar kit is all about versatility. Select a set of high performance 2Banger or 4Banger LED pods in your choice of beam pattern, pair that with the brackets to make installation a breeze, and power it properly with our switched wire harness.

ENGINEERED FITMENT: Morimoto's A-Pillar kit for the 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL or 2020+ Jeep Gladiator JT has been through numerous rounds of design, prototyping and testing directly on the truck to ensure perfect compatibility. Everything lines up with pre-existing mounting points to create an installation that is truly modification-free. Guaranteed. Yes, we agree this is a basic requirement, but you wouldn't believe the poor fitment we encountered from other well-known brands during development. It was mind blowing.

BRANCHES BEWARE: Each bracket is laser cut from 304 stainless steel, then powder coated. Put simply, the side mirrors on your Jeep JL/JT will rip off way before our A-Pillar kit even flexes a muscle.

PERFORMANCE: There are no "off the shelf" guts inside of a fancy housing here. Every element of the 2Banger and 4Banger is proprietary. LucidShape was used to optimize performance around the most modern, lumen-dense LEDs from Osram. Thermal dynamics have been optimized using SolidWorks. With two performance tiers, white or yellow output, and four distinct beam patterns (Wide/Fog, Spot, Combo, and Flood), there is a 2Banger or 4Banger to suit every performance need and driving style.

HXB SPOT BEAM: Illuminates far into the distance unlike anything else in their class. The HXB Spot comes standard with the most powerful Osram LEDs, which in combination with their advanced optics produces a beam pattern capable of penetrating up to 700 meters (2Banger), 800 meters (4Banger) into your future. You will have a hard time out-running your ability to see with the HXB Spots.

HXB COMBO BEAM: Illuminates a clear path with medium range. The HXB Combo beam provides a blend of width and distance illumination making every day driving in the middle of nowhere far more comfortable. The hot spot and spread has been perfectly tuned to produce an ideal combo beam. The HXB Combo is an excellent aid to any set of high-performance headlights.

HXB WIDE BEAM: Illuminates the ground directly in front of the vehicle. The Wide beam optics feature dual axis control. 1) for width, and 2) active hot spot control to project peak intensity right along the top of the beam pattern. The proper cutoff line and vertical gradient easily passes the latest SAE F regulation for safe and legal use as a fog light on public roads. The HXB Wide beam delivers best-in-class combination of width and intensity, making it the most effective off-road capable, on-road compliant Dual-LED pod light in the world.

HXB FLOOD BEAM (2Banger Pods ONLY): Provides plenty of ambient light with coverage in every direction, making them the perfect solution for low-speed driving, rock crawling, back-up lights, or even illuminating your campgrounds. Flood optics do not project far into the distance, but are the undoubtedly the weapon of choice for comfortably illuminating everything in your local space.

NCS SPOT BEAM: Illuminates well into the distance. The NCS Spot features a highly focused 5-degree hot spot that's surrounded by a 14H x 4C degree flood beam, making it the perfect weapon for long range visibility. While not quite as powerful as the HXB Spot (which uses Osram LEDs), when paired up with a set of NCS Combos, you will have no problems avoiding deer in the distance.

NCS COMBO BEAM: Illuminates a clear path with medium range. The NCS Combo beam provides a blend of width and distance illumination making every day driving in the middle of nowhere far more comfortable. The oval hot spot and spread at beam center has been perfectly tuned to produce an ideal flood beam. The NCS Combo is an excellent aid to any set of high-performance headlights.

NCS WIDE BEAM: Illuminates the ground directly in front of the vehicle, making them a perfect complement to a set of high-performance Morimoto headlights. They produce a very wide beam to drastically improve visibility off to the sides of the road. Superior vertical gradient control eliminates glare to oncoming traffic, and when mounted in the fog light position and aimed appropriately, will meet the latest SAE standards for safe, legal use as a fog light on public roads.

ALL WEATHER: The white-output version is ideal for all-around visibility. For those who desire optimal output in rain, snow, or fog -- the Yellow-output version will slay in shady weather. Morimoto has opted for Phosphor-converted Yellow LEDs that produce yellow light at the origin, which is the most effective way to penetrate through particles in the air without compromising output (Filtering white light through a yellow lens achieves the look, but no actual performance benefit in poor weather)

RELIABILITY: With power comes great responsibility. Extensive effort went into ensuring the reliability of the product. High power means high heat, which is why the 2Banger/4Banger features a copper DTP (direct thermal path) PCB that maximizes heat-transfer to the radiator, which has been optimized through numerous rounds of thermal analysis. The cast aluminum shell is electroplated before powder coating to withstand flaking. The gasket system, integrated DT power connection, and breather valves all designed according to IP69K standards for full weather resistance.

STREET LEGALITY: When aimed properly, the Spot and Combo beam patterns will comply with SAE J581 standards for an auxiliary high beam.

• 2BANGER: When aimed properly, the Spot and Combo beam patterns will comply with SAE J581 standards for an auxiliary high beam. If you're looking for a high-performance street-legal LED pod to use as a fog light, the 2Banger wide beam model has been verified-compliant with the latest SAE-F regulation for on road use by Calcoast Labs in California.
• 4BANGER: With a standard -4 degree aim, the beam pattern produced by both the NCS and HXB Wide Beam models has been verified compliant with the latest SAE F regulation for use as a street-legal fog light. You can see the test data in the "Compatibility" section below. Some localities require auxiliary lights to be covered for everyday driving. To comply, the optional Blackout Covers are designed to fit all Morimoto 4Banger LED Pods, and are a friction + clip fit that installs with ease, and can be removed in seconds. 4Banger LED Pods REQUIRE U-Mount Brackets (BAF046) to attach pods to a-pillar brackets.

POWER UP: The Morimoto 2Banger/4Banger LED Pods have been developed from the ground up to set a new standard in their segment, and the same goes for the optional wire harness. If you want the best, bingo. Not one component on the harness was overlooked for the sake of cost or simplicity. Triple sealed proprietary 4-pin relay with hanger. Proprietary over-molded inline fuse holder with 20A mini fuse. DT06-2S female outputs with dual seals. Stainless steel power and ground terminals. Proprietary M-Spec push button switch with Yellow-LED backlight.
