If you’re new to LED lighting or the offroading scene in general, you may be wondering: what are ditch lights? LED ditch lights are given their name because they typically light up the ditches next to your vehicle as well as the road ahead. Ditch lights are usually mounted at the bottom of the windshield near the edge of the hood using mounting brackets, but can also be mounted on roof racks and bumpers.
