Diode Dynamics DD8036 SS3 Max Type YS SAE Fog Light Kit Yellow ABL

The Diode Dynamics SS3 Max Type YS Fog Light Kit (DD8036) is a high-performance 3-inch LED pod fog light kit featuring selective yellow output with integrated amber backlighting (ABL). Engineered and assembled in the USA, this kit is designed as a direct-replacement upgrade over factory fog lamps, delivering SAE-compliant road-legal output in a clean, factory-style package.

At the heart of this kit are four Osram HX Boost 20-watt automotive-grade LED emitters paired with custom-engineered Total Internal Reflection (TIR) optics. Unlike traditional reflectors or basic lenses that scatter light and lose efficiency, the TIR optic collects all available light from the LED and directs it precisely on target — drastically reducing glare while maximizing total output intensity. The TIR optic also serves as the main outer lens, eliminating the additional light loss associated with a separate outer lens.

The selective yellow (3000K) SAE Fog beam pattern uses Diode Dynamics' distinctive FineLine optic design, producing an extremely wide 80-degree field of view with high-intensity output ideal for cutting through rain, fog, and inclement weather. When installed and aimed per applicable regulations, the fog pattern meets SAE J583 standard for road-legal on-road use.

The Max power tier represents the top of the Stage Series lineup, utilizing cutting-edge automotive emitters for both high power and extreme output intensity — surpassing other LED fog lights on the market.
