Stealth Kits are the go-to upgrade for Next Gen Raptor, Ranger, and Everest owners who want serious lighting performance without adding a bull bar, nudge bar, or roof rack. Mounted discreetly behind the grille, they deliver maximum lighting output from a seamless OEM-style package. Designed and tested in Melbourne, each kit uses precision-engineered brackets paired with ALTIQ’s flagship lighting systems, ensuring reliability, durability, and a factory-style look tailored to your Next Gen Ford.

This guide is designed to help you quickly identify which Stealth lighting options exist, which apply to your specific Ford, and how to choose the correct kit without guesswork.

Step 1 - Choose your lighting setup

Your first decision is which Stealth lighting format suits how you actually drive. ALTIQ Stealth Kits are available in two formats only — Light Bar or Spot Light. Each serves a distinct purpose.

Light Bar Stealth Kits

Light bar Stealth Kits provide controlled, even illumination across the road and surrounding environment. They are a cost‑effective and highly capable upgrade over Level 1 and Level 2 factory headlights, and remain effective across a wide range of driving speeds.

Rather than maximising forward throw, light bars prioritise usable width and consistency, making them particularly effective where road conditions change frequently.

Best suited for:

• Off-road driving and touring

• Winding roads where width matters more than distance

• Medium to higher-speed driving where even road coverage is preferred

• General night driving where towing or extreme distance is not the priority

Available options:

• Ranger / Everest 28” Light Bar Stealth Kit
  

• Raptor 32” Light Bar Stealth Kit
  

Spot Light Stealth Kits

Our Spot Light Stealth Kits utilise our Rogue Mk3 driving lights, mounted discreetly behind the grille to deliver a naturally spot‑biased beam pattern. This provides significantly improved forward distance, visibility, and reaction time compared to factory lighting — particularly on vehicles fitted with stock LED or Matrix headlights.

Beam pattern can be tuned using our panoramic covers, allowing you to tailor output to your driving needs:

• No covers: approx. 70/30 distance‑to‑flood bias for maximum reach

• One cover fitted: approx. 50/50 balance of distance and width

• Both covers fitted: approx. 30/70 distance‑to‑flood bias for broader spread

Where light bars prioritise consistent width, our Rogue Mk3 driving lights deliver significantly higher usable output with configurable distance and reach. This makes our Spot Light Stealth Kits the preferred option when speed, towing, or open-road reaction time is the priority.

Best suited for:

• Highway and rural driving

• Higher-speed conditions where reaction distance is critical

• Towing applications

• Open road environments

• Drivers wanting flexibility to bias beam spread

Available option:

• Next-Gen Ranger / Everest / Raptor Spot Light Stealth Kit
  
  

Comparison Table

Choose a Light Bar Stealth Kit if:

• You want a more cost‑effective upgrade over factory lighting

• You prioritise even road coverage over maximum forward distance

• You drive a mix of winding roads, touring routes, and off‑road tracks

• Your vehicle is fitted with Level 1 or Level 2 headlights and you want a substantial improvement

Our Light Bar Stealth Kits are a good choice for drivers seeking a well‑rounded, highly capable lighting upgrade that delivers clarity and control across most driving situations.

Choose a Spot Light Stealth Kit if:

• You regularly drive at higher speeds where reaction distance matters

• You tow, drive rural highways, or cover long open roads

• Your vehicle is fitted with factory LED or Matrix headlights and you want a meaningful step beyond stock performance

• You want the ability to modify beam bias between distance and spread using our panoramic covers

Our Spot Light Stealth Kits are a great choice for drivers who demand maximum performance while having the ability to choose between, max distance, max spread and 50/50. 

Step 2 — Identify Your Vehicle’s Wiring Configuration

With your lighting format selected, the next step is identifying how your vehicle is wired. On next‑gen Ford platforms, auxiliary wiring differs by headlight type, trim level, and factory options, which directly affects how a Stealth Kit connects and operates.

How to Identify Your Wiring Setup

The easiest way to identify your wiring configuration is by looking at:

• The headlight style fitted to your vehicle (halogen, LED C‑Clamp, or LED Matrix)

• Whether factory auxiliary switches are present (overhead or dash)

The images below show the physical differences between Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and AUX‑based setups.

Wiring Configurations

AUX Switch Integration - Light Bar vs Spot Light

If your vehicle is fitted with factory overhead auxiliary switches, integration differs depending on the Stealth Kit selected. This difference comes down to power requirements, not complexity.

Light Bar Stealth Kits

• Connect directly to Aux 5 or Aux 6 in the engine bay

• Use DT connector with tail only

• No additional wiring harness or adapters required

Light Bar Stealth Kits operate comfortably within the factory auxiliary circuit limits, allowing them to be powered directly from the vehicle without additional relays or protection.

Spot Light Stealth Kits

• Use ALTIQ Fast Fit Wiring Harness for power supply

• Aux 5 or Aux 6 used as isolator switch

• High‑beam signal still managed through factory harness for correct operation

Factory Aux 5 and Aux 6 outputs are limited to 25A, which is suitable for lower‑draw accessories such as light bars. Our Rogue Mk3 Spot Light Stealth Kits draw significantly more power (330W combined), exceeding the safe capacity of the factory auxiliary circuits.

For this reason, Spot Light Stealth Kits are powered via the ALTIQ Fast Fit Wiring Harness, supplying power directly from the battery through correctly rated protection. The factory Aux switch is retained as the high‑beam isolator, while the harness manages power delivery safely and reliably.

Why Choose ALTIQ Stealth Kits Over DIY Setups?

• Seamless OEM-style fitment – Unlike DIY brackets, ALTIQ kits are designed to integrate perfectly with Next Gen Raptor, Ranger, and Everest grilles, avoiding guesswork or trial-and-error.

• Engineered and tested in Melbourne – Rather than untested generic solutions, every ALTIQ kit is developed for Australian conditions, ensuring reliability in heat, dust, and rain.

• Proven bracket design – Our brackets are tested for rigidity, airflow, and long-term durability, giving you peace of mind that home‑made mounts can’t guarantee.

• Flagship lighting systems – Each kit uses Rogue Mk3 Driving Lights or Hybrid Light Bars, delivering market-leading performance that no mix-and-match DIY setup can match.

• 10-year warranty – DIY options come with no support, while ALTIQ backs every Stealth Kit with an industry-leading 10-year warranty.

Conclusion

For Next Gen Raptor, Ranger, and Everest owners, the choice is simple:

• Choose our Light Bar Stealth Kit if you want a highly capable lighting solution that delivers strong forward visibility and wide peripheral coverage in a single, integrated system. Light bars are an excellent choice for winding roads, touring, off‑road use, and general night driving, where balanced illumination helps you see further into corners, pick up roadside hazards earlier, and maintain consistent visibility across changing environments.
  
  
• Choose our Spot Light Stealth Kit if you want the highest possible output and forward reach, particularly for highway, rural, or towing applications. Spot kits deliver unmatched distance and reaction time straight out of the box, with the added advantage of tunable beam bias using panoramic covers when driving conditions change.

Every ALTIQ Stealth Kit is engineered in Melbourne, tested for Australian conditions, and backed by our 10‑year warranty. With OEM‑style integration and proven durability, you’re not just upgrading your lighting — you’re investing in a system designed to outlast your vehicle.
