Addictive Desert Designs AC1901801NA Ditch Light Brackets | 2021-2026 Ford F-150 & Raptor

Overview

The Addictive Desert Designs Ditch Light Brackets (AC1901801NA) are precision-engineered, USA-made hood-hinge light mounts purpose-built for the 2021–2025 Ford F-150 and 3rd Gen F-150 Raptor. Designed for off-road enthusiasts who demand serious auxiliary lighting without sacrificing a clean, factory-quality appearance, these brackets position LED pod lights near the A-pillar in the classic "ditch light" location — improving forward and peripheral visibility on night trails, backroads, and recovery situations. If you're searching for the best ditch light brackets for your 2021+ F-150 or Raptor, ADD's proven bolt-on design sets the standard for fit, finish, and durability.

Key Features & Benefits

• 1/8-Inch American Steel Construction — Heavy-gauge domestic steel provides exceptional rigidity, ensuring your lights stay locked on target even on the roughest terrain, mile after mile.
• 2-Stage Hammer Black Powder Coat Finish — A durable dual-stage powder coat not only protects against corrosion, UV, and the elements, but delivers a sleek, aggressive look that complements the F-150's factory styling.
• Hood Hinge Mount Design — Brackets bolt directly to the existing hood hinges, positioning cube or round LED pod lights near the A-pillar for maximum illumination without obstructing your sightline.
• Adjustable Light Angle — Lights can be aimed straight ahead for maximum forward throw, or angled to the sides to dramatically improve corner and obstacle visibility during off-road driving.
• Compatible with 3"–6" LED Pod Lights — Works with a wide range of popular round and cube LED pod lights from industry-leading brands including Rigid Industries and Baja Designs (e.g., Rigid 360-Series, Baja Designs LP4/LP6, and cube lights).
• Integrated Wire Management Channels — Built-in wire routing channels keep all wiring neatly tucked and out of view for a clean, professional-looking installation.
• 100% Bolt-On Installation — No Drilling Required — A fully bolt-on design means no cutting, drilling, or permanent modifications to your truck. Installs using existing hardware points.
• Driver & Passenger Side Pair Included — Complete set with both left and right side brackets so your truck is fully equipped right out of the box.
• Made in the USA — Designed, developed, manufactured, and tested in Chandler, Arizona at ADD's state-of-the-art 80,000 sq. ft. production facility.
• Low-Profile, Sightline-Friendly Position — The A-pillar ditch location keeps lights out of your direct line of sight, minimizing driver distraction while maximizing usable light output.
