I know I know I don't have my 21 Bronco yet but please hear me out.

Last night I was looking at accessories and I came across some cool low profile pod lights and I just had to have them.

Parts like ARB compressors and fridge/freezers are already sold out in most places so I decided I want to start acquiring what I can ahead of time before demad of these things grows even more when people start receiving their Broncos.

This set of pod lights is from a company called Heretic Studios and all their items are USA sourced and made in house. The model I bought was a 4 light horizontal pod which in my opinion should look amazing on the mirror mount. I'll update with pics once they are installed.

They even powder coat the cover for you for additional cost or can send the cover unpainted so you can get it painted to match yourself. I opted to buy additional covers to get them painted in my color scheme I want. The customer service was far better than I was expecting.

And I think these would be great for the rear and side work lights.

I'm waiting to see what the aftermarket makes for roof racks before I buy a light bar and scene lights. I agree they also make flush mount versions. I just really like their design.

Agree, thanks for sharing, I have been looking for a good source for lighting solutions. (y)

So far, I’m liking this rack design from 4WP, looking forward to seeing the pricing and availability.

Yeah I'm not sure how they will design them for the hard tops because where those back rack supports go is where the hard top lays.

My only question on it, can you remove the middle hardtop section with it on? If so, take my money now for a reservation LOL Because For the Bronco factory rack you have to remove the rails to get the middle section off.

I'll pay a little extra if it means I support a local brand that does everything in house and backs their product and quality. The specs and light output are worth the price alone to the next comparable product.

I guess it's kinda like buying a saddle before you get your horse but with all the craziness in the world, I'm not counting any chickens before they're hatched. I want this bird in hand before I start buying accessories.

I’m pretty sure our first accessory will be a refrigerator/cooler. We went out of town last weekend for 3 days. Every time we ate, it was almost $30 for the 3 of us and the food.......it’s greasy!

We are looking forward to getting the fridge and preparing our own “healthy” meals on road trips.

Agreed there, I am liking the ARB more and more since you can include the LINK system too. Dam more money LOL I think I'm over $2,000 just in ARB NOT including the bumpers yet too LOL

...and then there is the cool factor, the ego factor, and the sticker that comes in the box. That sticker is expensive.

Awesome! I’ve been doing the same.

I want to build an overlanding rig that suits my needs and looks great, and is within a budget with quality parts!

I will admit to buying accessories for my Bronco. I started last October. In a way it was what I call “retail therapy for pandemic living”. ;)

It seemed to accomplish three important goals.
  • It reinforced my decision to buy a Bronco and stay firm to my 2-door choice.
  • It forced me to decide what was critical for getting out on the trails ASAP after taking delivery.
  • It gave me time to analyze options and compare prices.
I discovered major delays in delivery due to supply chain disruptions. One product I ordered in November did not arrive until February.

I have held off on items which are not critical and suspect they might be hard to come by once Broncos hit the streets, but I am fine with that since I already have the important items.

I also found this site that does vinyl graphics and looks like they have many already made for the Bronco and Sport.
