Salvaged this fuse/relay box out of my last truck. Cleaned it up tonight in prep for my light bar that shows up later this week. Running 3 circuits, 1 for a 20” light bar, 1 for DRL lights built into light bar, and 1 for future a-pillar pods.
Are you planning to go through relays to power your accessories?

Gave the rig a nice hand wash considering it's the first time without rain for like two or three days, lol. Then had to take her around town for a cruise, show her off with the dogs and take them for a walk. This is after the walk with the dogs with a gorgeous sunset.
I think RAM social media accounts could use this for advertisements. Great picture and a better looking truck.

Yup I use positaps (higher quality t-tap) to grab the signals I want (brights and drl) then use that to trigger my relays to turn on my lights.

Right now I’m trying to find a pinout if our headlight harness so I can grab the right wires.

I absolutely love how bright the inside of my truck is now with the LASFIT LED upgrade.
I looked these up. Did u have to buy the package with all of the exterior lights and interior or did you find just the interior? All I see on the website is the whole package

If you scroll down on the screen, you can just add each set of lights to your cart independently. Just to let you know...I found the same T10 and T15 bulbs on Amazon cheaper than on LASFIT's website. They came in the same LASFIT packaging as it would purchased directly through LASFIT. I could not find the same festoon bulb on Amazon. I ended up replacing all my interior and my rear high mount brake and cargo lights. You will need two T10 lights for the map lights, a 44mm festoon for the dome, and all T15 (two white and one red) for the exterior. The attached pictures don't do the actual lights justice. LED headlights are perfect cutoff and way brighter than stock halogen.

I found them all on Amazon. They will probably take a month to get here due to the corona tho

I did the shifter on my Challenger, I used a heat gun on the end edges. It worked but of course, be careful with the heat gun.
I have a heat gun but thought it may get too hot to apply it in this application, so yesterday I worked on it some more with a hairdryer and a few squiggies ...I would say it is now 90% perfect, looks much better than it did on Saturday.

Edited to add: I had some material leftover from cutting out the center section for the BLIS and used a piece of paper overlayed on the 3rd brake light and had the wife apply the brakes and turn on the cargo lights so I could trace the red portion out. overlayed that onto the back of the extra piece and traced it and cut it out then applied to third light. Looks pretty good.

90% perfect will drive you crazy everytime you look at it.

Looks great, contrary to my own advice I bit the bullet and ordered the tail light and headlight kit. Also used waterfowlers 20% discount so not really too bad of a loss if it doesn’t work out.

I know, I will continue to work on them as I get the time, I think I can get it to 98% and be satisfied. I think the headlights will be a breeze in comparison and will likely do them later on.

Scott_65, Good luck with yours and if you need any advice, feel free to hit me up. They will come with 1 squiggy, I have extras from other projects and the way I got the top to lay and stay was to insert a couple of squiggies between the light and the truck at the top and heat it for aboput 2-3 minuets with hair dryer on high and about 3-4 inches away then let cool to ambient and gently remove squiggies, viola, they stayed!

Tomorrow, I have these going on Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003's 285/55R22

No, Walmart web site was cheapest I found anywhere.
Ha, I just went to Walmart and they went up about $120.00/tire than what I paid last week (March 26th). I must have found an old listing and it got caught when I ordered them, but they did honor the price. I paid $318.19 each. Now they are $436.77 each...yeah me!

Decided to take the RAM emblems off the sides. I think it gave it a cleaner look.

They're going up for sale if anyone's interested check the Buy/Sell/Trade section.
