Are the plastic bumper LEDs the same as on the steel winch bumper?

[GladnotSad]

I recently acquired a steel winch bumper and will be installing it soon. I did not get it with the LED fog lights as I plan on swapping out the ones in my plastic bumper. Will these be plug and play?

The leds are different.

The leds are different.

Well that sucks.

Is there anyway to make them work, maybe with different brackets?

Look on quadratec.com, at the mopar fog lights, you can see the difference in the brackets. The led fogs are a dime a dozen on facebook market place for $100 - $150.

I am not sure if any of the aftermarket brackets would work honestly.

It does suck. I don't know why they made them different. Mine came with a plastic bumper with leds. The Arcus bumper works with those, but not steel bumper leds. One of the reasons I stopped trying to find a steel winch bumper. That, and I would have had to buy a winch plate anyway.

One more thing. The steel skid plates are also different on the two bumpers! Your plastic bumper steel skid plate will also not work with the steel bumper. Another reason I chose the Arcus bumper. The stock skid bolted right back on.

I knew about the skid plate and purchased the correct one.

I just tried to buy a set on Facebook and the seller was cool and said I just need these brackets and not new fogs.
