    side mirror removal to replace mirror cap

    Swapped out my Laramie chrome caps for Delmonico Red today. I picked up a suction cup and heated the mirror with a blow dryer. Took my time, about 45 min overall. Just hope I got the black & black/blue wires right. Thanks to everyone who posted tips on the mirror/caps removal.

    Visor stickers.

    Looks good, that's what I was originally trying to find. There was a company that made custom overlays a while back when I had my Charger and Challenger. So I used the blow dryer method instead and they came right off.

    Adding brake controller to Ram 1500 Laramie - Cost/difficulty?

    It also shows up in the dash and the radio, at least it does on the 12", once it's been flashed.

    Adding brake controller to Ram 1500 Laramie - Cost/difficulty?

    Did it myself (except for the flash) and it was really simple. Easy to follow instructions on this site. I paid about $130 for all the parts. Most dealers around me wanted $199 for the flash, eventually found one to do it for $125. I retrospect wish I gave that one a go myself as well.

    Rear window leak (Not the center high mounted light)

    Hard to tell exactly where it's leaking but appears to start at the corners. I just had ankle surgery and I'm in soft cast with crutches so I'm not moving around to well. I was able to snap a couple of photos. Looks like it previously leaked on the drivers side too, probably from a washing, but...

    Rear window leak (Not the center high mounted light)

    We got our first good rain here (SoCal) in more than 9 months so I decided to go take a peek in the back of the cab..... aaaaaand it leaks. Looks like from the somewhere around the corner as the headliner is wet there now.

    Anybody wish they had bought a different vehicle?

    I helped my wife shop for her Wrangler Unlimited. 6 months later I started looking at a Gladiator. While there I decided to check out a 1500 Laramie and take a test drive. Bought it a few days later and still love it. Wife threatens to not give it back every time she drives it. I do miss the...

    Breaking up the black - door handle trim

    Chrome insert are only standard on the Laramie, Limited and Longhorn I believe. Plenty on here seem to prefer deleting the chrome, maybe you can find someone to swap handles.

    How bad is Brake Dust with OEM pads?

    Yeah, compared to my 2010 and 2013 SRT the brake dust is minimal, don't even notice it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    If you really try you can get 21-22 with the Hemi. I've done a couple of road trips to Vegas for my son's hockey, around 600-650 miles RT with lots of elevation changes, I managed to easily get 21.5 keeping at/under 75 and taking it easy for the few miles around town. But if I did 80+ and liked...

    Sadness When Selling an Old Car

    I know how you feel, I sold this one when I bought the Ram. I was worried I'd regret selling and getting the Ram but so far although I miss it a little no regrets, love my Laramie. Just had to learn to take off ramps slower and stop reaching for a shifter that isn't there lol.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Take your time. I watched the video below. I removed the visors from the truck first. Got them good and hot with the dryer first and then started in the corner. I got them as hot as could to help with glue removal. Then used a microfiber with rubbing alcohol being careful not to over work the...

    Floor Mat Recall

    It's the same with my Weather Tech mats. The first couple if times I reinstalled them after cleaning I noticed it was very easy for them to end up resting on the pedal rather than underneath it if I wasn't paying attention when installing. I just make sure they're under the pedal now every...
