Ditch LED Light Brackets for Ford F150 2015-2023

A simple upgrade that changes how your Ford F-150 feels after dark.

BMS Engineering ditch light brackets let you mount auxiliary lights on the hood of your Ford F-150 for better coverage on trails, backroads, campsites, and off-road routes. Instead of relying only on your stock lighting, you get a wider view of what is ahead and off to the sides – especially at dusk, in heavy rain, fog, dust, or low-visibility conditions.

The brackets are designed for a clean, straightforward install. They mount with the hood hinges and use the original bolts, so there is no need to drill the hood or modify the body.

Once your ditch lights are installed and aimed, they help reveal the things that can catch you off guard: trail bends, potholes, rocks, ruts, road edges, low branches, and hidden obstacles outside the main beam pattern. That extra visibility gives the driver more time to react, reduces the stress of night driving, and makes unfamiliar routes feel more predictable.

These lights are not meant for regular public-road use and may be restricted by local laws. But off pavement, on private roads, remote access routes, job sites, and outdoor trips, hood light mounts are one of the most practical lighting upgrades you can add to a truck.

Give your Ford F-150 the light coverage it needs beyond the pavement. Choose BMS Engineering ditch light brackets and make every night drive more controlled, more confident, and easier on everyone in the truck.

FAQ

What are hood light brackets used for on a Ford F-150?

They let you mount auxiliary lights on the hood to improve visibility in front of the truck and out to the sides. That extra light is useful at night, at dusk, in fog, rain, dust, or on unfamiliar backroads where the stock lighting does not give you enough coverage.

Will these brackets fit my Ford F-150?

Yes. These BMS Engineering ditch light brackets are designed for the Ford F-150 2015–2023. They are shaped to match the hood and hinge layout of this generation for a clean, model-specific install.

Do I need to drill the hood or modify the body?

No. The brackets install with the hood hinges and use the original hood hinge bolts. You do not need to drill the hood, cut the body, or make permanent modifications.

Is mounting hardware included?

No separate mounting hardware is included. The brackets are installed using the original bolts already on the truck.

Can I adjust the light angle?

Yes. During installation, you can aim the lights to match how you drive. Set them wider for side visibility on trails and rural roads, or more forward-facing for open dirt roads and longer sightlines.

Will the brackets interfere with opening the hood?

The brackets are designed to keep normal hood operation, but clearance also depends on the size, shape, and position of the auxiliary lights you choose. Test the full hood movement during installation before tightening everything down.

Where are hood-mounted lights most useful?

They are useful on trails, forest roads, ranch roads, hunting and fishing trips, campsites, job sites, and remote access roads. Hood-mounted ditch lights help reveal potholes, ruts, rocks, low branches, road edges, turns, and obstacles that may sit outside the main beam pattern.

Can I use these lights on public roads?

Rules vary by state, country, and region. In many places, hood-mounted auxiliary lights must be turned off or covered on public roads. They are intended mainly for off-road routes, private roads, work areas, and other places where extra lighting is allowed.

Are these brackets the same as A-pillar mounts?

They are closely related. These brackets mount with the hood hinges and position the lights near the base of the A-pillar, which is why many truck owners also call this setup A-pillar light mounts, ditch light brackets, or hood light mounts.

How do I maintain the brackets?

The black powder-coated finish helps protect the brackets from moisture, dirt, and road grime. After off-road driving, gravel roads, winter use, or brush contact, check for chips or exposed metal. Touching up damaged areas helps prevent corrosion.
