been waiting for these running boards to become available - has anyone installed the 2024 option? I’ve heard the wiring setup could be different for the 25. I’ve reached out and RealTruck says there’s no time available for release yet.
 
Oh man you have no idea how timely your post is! I have the same truck, took it to a shop that recommend the AMP e-Boards, but asked ME to verify with the dealer if the dimensions on the '25 were the same as the '24 - they never asked me to check on the electrical (and I know nothing about electrical which is why I wanted a professional installer). Now my truck is sitting in their shop, boards bolted on, and they cannot get the wiring properly installed - said they've been working on it all day. My first new truck plus a pricey aftermarket purchase for me) and now I'm not sure what is going to happen. Does ANYONE have any experience with this OR a solution?

Yep, amps aren’t going to work on a 2025. It’ll be a while before they figure out a set for 2025’s.
 
This is the only other set I like, and they said the same thing. No time table for the 25 option.

I don’t want to buy the Rhino magnet option if I can help it, I feel like AMPs are a cleaner install.
 
Exactly the same here.... AMP retractable steps are installed in the "up" position and the shop talked to everyone re final wiring....4 months out! Already getting tired of boosting my wife in :sneaky:
 
I've installed them on my '25. I didn't know they weren't compatible until I tried to hook up the OBD2 plug and couldn't find the green block of plugs anywhere. I've already drilled the holes into the pinch weld so I'm not taking them off. I was able to get them to work through the app though. The wiring to the motors were reversed so I had to flip those around to get them to deploy when pressing the deploy button and retract accordingly.

Months later from the original post and still no wiring solution. This truck is too popular to not come up with a fix.

Just installed the amp research on my 2025 ram 1500 quad cab. Very simple. Hit me up with any concerns.
 
2025 ram 1500 rebel, purchased the new plug and play decided would be too much work for me so took to authorized dealer. they took like 4 hours to install. steps dont alway come down. also notice some electrical issues such as ram logo not lighting up when i open my doors from the mirrors to concrete. any ideas?

So i unplugged from odb connector and turned off vehicle for at least half hour, now seems to be working. Cannot explain it or have any idea how long it will last.
