Diode Dynamics Stage Series Backlit Ditch Light Kit – 2019–2023 Ford Ranger

SS3/SSC2 LED Pod Kit | Amber Backlight | Hood Mounted Ditch Lights | SKU: DD6585

Upgrade your Ranger’s off-road visibility and styling with the Diode Dynamics Stage Series Backlit Ditch Light Kit (DD6585), engineered specifically for 2019–2023 Ford Ranger models. This premium ditch light system mounts two Stage Series LED pods above the hood near the A-pillars, delivering improved side visibility for trails, overlanding, and nighttime driving while adding an aggressive OEM-inspired appearance. 

The DD6585 kit utilizes vehicle-specific CAD-designed stainless steel brackets that install using factory mounting points with no cutting or drilling required. The low-profile bracket design minimizes hood glare and does not interfere with hood operation, creating a clean factory-style fitment.

This kit includes Stage Series SS3 or SSC2 LED pods with integrated amber backlighting, providing both powerful forward illumination and a unique accent lighting effect. Diode Dynamics utilizes advanced TIR (Total Internal Reflection) optics to maximize beam focus, light efficiency, and usable output compared to traditional reflector-based LED pod lights.
