By the way if you order this bumper from Mopar it's going to come with LED fog lights. It's possible now they are only shipping the version with 24+ fogs
Thank you! That all makes sense. So I saw it on a 392. Is there a known part number? I may be able to track down the 2020-2023 part in stock somewhere as new old stock.

Your post was validating. The girl at the parts counter wasn’t much help and tried directing me toward just a winch install kit.. 😆

I doubt it...seriously.

I think you should troll Facebook Marketplace and buy a used one for 1/3 the cost. I got mine for $600.

@Joaquin1970 you could also buy a brand new one and if it comes with the 2024 LEDs just source the older ones for less than $100 used

2020 - 2025 steel bumpers are identical. Fogs are not. 24+ fogs have a different harness. There's no ' 392 bumper ' other than Gold tow hooks or longer crush cans if factory winch in the donor vehicle. It's all the same. People who say they had to hog out skid holes screwed up and did not remove certain things on their Jeeps.

There was a certain bracket on my Mojave which came with a plastic bumper ( and steel skid ) in 2021 that interfered with the steel bumper native skid. I didn't even notice it until the skid didn't fit...removed the Mojave brackets.... steel bumper skid fit.

Since you have a 2023 if you buy a used bumper with fog lights you just need to confirm what year it came off of. If it's 2020 through 2023 and includes the LEDs you're fine. If it's a 2024 or 2025 you're going to need to buy 2020 - 2023 LED fogs for a steel bumper. Plastic bumper LED fogs are different.
Funny thing - the harness connector at the frame seems different, however, I put the fog lights from my 2022 right into the bumper on my 2025 and plugged them right in.
No harness mods.

The difference in the fog lights is the mounting - steel vs. "plastic" bumpers, but the DiodeDynamics I had in my 2022 and removed before trading it, went right into my 25, and I used them last night -dense fog near the river.

The connector at the frame felt different, bigger, but the fog light connectors, identical.
You can also order just the wiring harness if you want.



These were in my 2022 - and I changed no wiring to put them on my 2025 ->

Interesting and thanks for the input. I saw a completely different plug.

I remember telling Jerry when he was here helping and he said "may as well swap your fog lights while the bumper is off" - I said "I suppose the connectors will be different because everyone says they have changed them" - and they plugged right in.
So, I am not sure where the different connector idea came from - was it "for a while" or certain models or some other thing?

I need to find a picture of the frame connector for my 2022, but this one from my 2025 sure felt and looked different unless I'm remembering incorrectly -
Found - it's with the harness plugged in but the frame side connector can be seen in both pics-
