Do these mount with the factory brackets, or do I need new hardware?

They use factory mounting points — no additional hardware needed. Bolt straight into the existing holes on your truck's front fascia.

Will the smoked lens block enough light, or will they still be bright enough to see?

Smoked lenses reduce output slightly but maintain full functionality for fog and low-visibility driving. They're street legal and designed for daily use, not just show.

Do I need to disconnect the battery before wiring these in?

Yes — always disconnect the negative battery terminal before touching any electrical connections. The integrated harness plugs into your truck's factory fog light connectors, but safety first on the electrical side.
