Baja Designs Squadron-R SAE LED Auxiliary Light Pod Pair | Clear Lens | Street-Legal

Baja Designs Squadron-R SAE LED Auxiliary Light Pod Pair | Clear Lens | Street-Legal SAE Optics | SKU: BAJ247802

The Baja Designs Squadron-R SAE (SKU: BAJ247802) is a pair of SAE-compliant LED auxiliary light pods with clear lens engineered for street-legal on-road use. The “R” designation stands for Road — the Squadron-R uses SAE-regulated optics that meet DOT compliance standards for auxiliary fog and driving lights, making them legal for on-road use in most jurisdictions when properly installed. Clear lens delivers maximum output in clear conditions. For dust, fog, or precipitation environments, use the amber lens variant (BAJ247816) instead. Designed for fog pocket mounting, bumper auxiliary light positions, and any application requiring a street-legal auxiliary light. IP67 rated. Sold as a pair. Wiring harness sold separately.

Application

Universal mount — compatible with any vehicle, truck, UTV, or equipment requiring street-legal auxiliary lighting. Confirm mounting location and wiring harness compatibility before ordering. A relay harness is required for proper installation.

Clear vs. Amber Lens — Squadron-R SAE

• Clear Lens (BAJ247802, this listing): Maximum output in clear conditions — best for daily driving, overland, and work use where dust and fog are not a primary factor
• Amber Lens (BAJ247816): Filters blue light scatter in dust, fog, sand, and rain — best for desert, dusty trail, fog, and low-visibility environments. Reduced output vs. clear in clear conditions.

Squadron-R SAE vs. Squadron SAE vs. Squadron Sport

• Squadron Sport (BAJ557803 / BAJ557805 / BAJ557806 / BAJ557813): Off-road optics — maximum output, no SAE compliance. Legal for off-road use only.
• Squadron-R SAE — Clear (BAJ247802, this listing): SAE-compliant — compact Squadron-R body, clear lens, street-legal. Best for clear-condition daily and overland use.
• Squadron-R SAE — Amber (BAJ247816): SAE-compliant — compact Squadron-R body, amber lens, street-legal. Best for dust, fog, and low-visibility environments.
• Squadron SAE (BAJ257801): SAE-compliant — full-size Squadron body, higher output than Squadron-R. Best when maximum SAE-compliant output is needed.

What SAE Compliance Means

• SAE optics meet DOT standards for auxiliary fog and driving lights
• Regulated beam pattern prevents excessive glare to oncoming traffic
• Off-road lights (Squadron Sport, S2 Sport) are not SAE-compliant and not legal for on-road auxiliary use in most jurisdictions
• Verify local regulations — SAE compliance does not guarantee legality in all jurisdictions

Installation Notes

• Wiring harness required: A relay harness is required to protect your vehicle’s factory wiring. Do not wire directly to a factory switch without a relay.
• Mounting position for SAE compliance: SAE-compliant lights must be mounted at the correct height and aimed per SAE/DOT requirements. Confirm mounting height and aim requirements for your jurisdiction before installation.
• Aim before final torque: Aim the lights per SAE/DOT requirements before torquing mount hardware. Incorrect aim causes glare to oncoming traffic and may void SAE compliance.
• Connector sealing: Ensure all wiring connectors are fully seated and sealed after installation.

Installation Warning

Do not wire without a relay harness. Aim per SAE/DOT requirements — incorrect aim causes glare to oncoming traffic. SAE compliance does not guarantee legality in all jurisdictions — verify local regulations before use on public roads. Once installed, the pods are non-returnable.
