How do you diffuse led fog lights?
I installed backup lights on the back of my truck. They are very bright but they do not spread the light that well. I was wanting to diffuse the light and was wondering what you guys would think the best method would be. I could not find any relevant info online. I put masking tape over the bottom half of them and it worked fairly well despite a big drop in brightness but after removing the tape there's road grime caked on the fog light. The fog lights are Chinese knock offs of rigid dualilys but they work good for the purpose. I'm gonna try frosted shipping tape and see if that works. If anyone has ideas feel free to share

I know this is a few months old, but figured I'd try to help. It sounds like your lights are led spot lights, where for backup lights you should have looked for flood lights. The floods are designed to disperse the beam. I just ordered these myself:
You can choose flood or spot with these

My issue was despite them being a flood light they didn't spread light good enough for a reverse light. I was looking for something to diffuse the light better like what is installed on the diffused rigid duallys or other fog/headlights.
I have taken shipping tape and scuffed the surface with sandpaper, to diffuse the light. This works ok but it isn't a great solution, imo

You probably work for the company. You've replied to a lot of threads that don't even talk about things like this posting the same info...
