    Rough Country RAM 6" LED Grill Kit

    Can we get as some shots at night seeing what they cast forward? Both the lower hidden and the grille lights, separately, would be awesome!

    Power Running Board Lighting

    When you install the boards, you have to run the wiring harness, which crosses over to the passenger side but enters on the driver's. Add your additional wire for lighting to that harness before running it and enter and connect everything on the driver's side.

    Power Running Board Lighting

    You can grab the cargo light trigger right at the driver's side sill plate, and the lights will then illuminate with all other entry lights.

    Ruined my Friday

    Ugh! Sorry! Maybe this will make you feel better. About 10 years ago, one of my close friends bought a new vehicle and turned out of the dealership and was at the stop light right in front of the sales building. His salesman's wife rear ended his brand new ride!!!

    Power Running Board Lighting

    You can light the Mopar steps with some LED rock lights. Inexpensive and easy to wire to be triggered with the boards.

    Front Defroster Functionality

    If you want a trick from the guy that lived on the cold coast a long time, put a satchel of dessicant in the truck. It'll absorb excess moisture that stays trapped in the modern tight cabins, and will help with fogging. DampRid is one convenient brand with various containers.

    How long do you sit in traffic or idle?

    My idle time is also bad. Too many conference calls and company policy is to pull over for them.

    Check Your Fender Flares.

    Folks, Point of correction, the paint is hard and the substrate is soft. That is why the chipping is happening so easily.

    Touch-up paint sticks

    eBay. You'll note one seller for the majority of Mopar items for the 2019s. They're actually a RAM dealership. I bought my Granite Crystal touch up from them along with paint-matched mirror caps. Greater seller and prices!

    Anyone found a good hard tri fold for 2019 ram no box short bed

    Your rails are installed too high. You can even see it along the bed caps. Unclamp and lower them a bit so you get proper compression on the seal. When you put your new seal on, make sure you see no daylight before you clamp the rail tight. The instructions should spell this out, especially...

    LED accessory back up lights?

    Search VLEDS LPR here. The best solution IMO.

    part # for toggle switch groups?

    This is a huge miss from the 4th gen where you could buy the upfitter switches and away you went with accessories. I'm looking at this myself and the only clean install is to use the Homelink with a radio controlled switch box. Talk about stepping back a decade in invisible installs! The truck...

    Wind noise

    Read every post in this thread because apparently I have strong wind noise on the passenger side above 35mph. I have some hearing loss in my right ear due to an over-zealous firearms student, and never noticed anything myself. Yesterday my nephew, who is as particular as me, noticed it...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I did not grab a picture - sorry. It's on the driver's side frame at the bumper support. 10mm nut. Check other grounds while at it. Plenty were not even snug let alone hand tight.

    Anyone found a good hard tri fold for 2019 ram no box short bed

    Wait, you let your wife drive your truck?!? :eek: I still have an $800 bill to pay for when my wife drove my Yukon... 2004 XL 2500 with the 8.1L and floater, 61K original miles and looked brand new until my wife "borrowed" it. :mad: Gouged from rear wheel well trim to bumper where it was...

    Lomax Hard Cover - Bedliner Coating?

    I wouldn't. The Lomax is textured powdercoat. Bedliner is heavy, and would add some sag to the Lomax. Depending on what bedliner, UV could be a real aesthetic issue, and if a soft lining it will keep the dirt and inhibit how fast water moves off the cover.

    Check Your Fender Flares.

    For the long bed like I have, both the Weathertechs and some PPF are needed. The Weathertechs on a short bed seam to toss it back to the rear wheel instead of in front of it. For those thinking that's a long toss, trust me, it is not. You should see what my dually can throw out the rear set!

    Uconnect/sirius guardian - does it actually work?

    No issues other than need LTE signal for app commands to work absolutely. No issues with Android or Apple provided latest and greatest OS and app.

    Check Your Fender Flares.

    I prefer Xpel over 3M, especially their latest film. Heals, takes a beating, and stays looking great year after year of PA winters! On my 2019, I have the front bikini for partial hood and leading parts of fenders & front flares; the fillers below the headlights; custom A-pillars; custom roof...

    Check Your Fender Flares.

    I have that "particular personality" of any engineer, and with it I observed the splash patterns on my truck from the ride home from purchase. It shortly thereafter received Weathertech splash guards, and I observed the new pattern. :LOL: Shortly after that, PPF found its way on the rocker...
