Purpose-Built Lighting for the Kuat IBEX Bed Rack

Instead of adapting universal lights and brackets to your rack, this Stage Series kit was engineered specifically around the Kuat IBEX Bed Rack.

Four application-specific brackets position the included rock lights along the upper side rails. Their angled design directs illumination outward, providing useful coverage around the perimeter of your truck.

The result is an integrated setup ideal for camping, overlanding, nighttime trail repairs, loading gear, and general campsite illumination.

High and Low Power Modes

Sometimes you need maximum illumination. Other times, a subtle campsite light is all that’s necessary.

The Stage Series Rock Lights use a simple three-wire system that provides both low-power and high-power operation. The included three-way switch makes it easy to select the output level for the situation.

Use low power around camp or when you only need a small amount of ambient light, then switch to high power when maximum surrounding visibility is needed.

White and Amber Scene Lighting

The kit includes two complete sets of interchangeable lenses:

Cool White Diffused Lenses provide crisp illumination for maximum visibility when working, loading equipment, or navigating around your vehicle after dark.

Amber Lenses provide a warmer output that can help reduce perceived glare and create a more comfortable atmosphere around camp.

Four white and four amber lenses are included, allowing you to configure the lights without purchasing an additional lens kit.

Optically Engineered Rock Lights

Rather than using a basic clear cover, Diode Dynamics designed optical elements directly into the Stage Series Rock Light lens.

Each lens incorporates four individual optics to distribute output across a broad area with smooth, consistent coverage. This makes the lights especially well suited to scene-lighting applications where even illumination is more useful than a concentrated beam.

The outer lens is manufactured from thick automotive-grade polycarbonate with a UV-resistant coating for long-term durability.

Clean Bolt-On Installation

The included brackets and T-slot hardware allow the lights to integrate directly with the Kuat IBEX Bed Rack.

The complete wiring package includes extension wires, a splitter harness, single-output harness, wire-retention components, and installation hardware to help create a clean finished installation.

No universal scene-light brackets need to be sourced separately.

Built for Overlanding and Off-Road Use

Scene lights mounted outside your vehicle are constantly exposed to dust, rain, mud, vibration, and changing temperatures.

Stage Series Rock Lights feature an IP68 waterproof rating, cast aluminum housings, pin-fin heatsinks, and rugged polycarbonate lenses. They have been tested for operation from -40°F to 185°F, along with vibration, moisture intrusion, and corrosion testing.

This durable construction makes the kit well suited for overland rigs, adventure trucks, work vehicles, and other IBEX-equipped builds.
