Good video, this is not a difficult task but you can damage these connectors if not done correctly.I made a less than 3 minute video on how to deal with that plug. Watch here if you like.
Just the comments on the Chinese sellers eBay pages about low quality items. I couldn't find any comments specific to the step, but I assume it's like anything else they sell. The Chinese steps are made out of steel and no doubt a low quality steel that will be prone to rust. If you live in a warm, salt free environment it might be okay.Ordered my Mopar bed step. Should be in by the time I’m back from vacation.
Any reason why people say don’t get a knockoff version? Anybody try them yet?
Which island? I lived on Maui for a year then windward Oahu for 4 years, beautiful beyond compare but could not afford to retire there (moved back to Florida).... on an island in the pacific!
Have they changed this step? I installed the OEM Mopar corner step on my previous truck (2020 Laramie) and didn't have to mess with any wiring. Are we all talking about the same step? This is the step I assumed the OP was asking about...

I can neither confirm nor deny that I may or may not have a bed step that does not conflict with said wiring harness...although I do believe I had to release it from a bracket to make room. But this was in 2018, so I've slept since then.I believe I figured out why I didn't have to mess with any wiring. I had the recalled step, which used a cast one-piece support. The updated step used a welded multi-piece support, which requires you to have to mess with the wire harness.
Trucks with the mft come with a step in the middleI installed the Mopar step, too. It tucks away very nicely under the bumper. Much more cleaner look than any aftermarket step.
Negative, RAM only offers it for the driver side as far as I know.
They do if they also have the BUG.Trucks with the mft come with a step in the middle

If you don't mind, please tell me what dealership you got your step from, your price is excellent and $0 shipping too!
Thanks,

Did you install the eBay clone step? If so, how did it look?I found it on ebay for under $200 and free shipping
maybe the difference is one attached drivers side and the other attaches to the middle for the multi function tailgate?Regarding the Mopar step, what's the difference between part number 82214245AD and 82215289AH? They look the same to me, but the 82214245AD part says "Fits 2014-2022 Ram" and the 82215289AH part says "Fits 2021-2022 Ram". There's also a $75 difference in price. I'm guessing one is for trucks with dual exhaust and one is for the single exhaust, but it doesn't say that.
I want to make sure I'm getting the right part. Mine's a 2022 Big Horn (5.7L dual exhaust).
The AD step is for the Classic and HD trucks.Regarding the Mopar step, what's the difference between part number 82214245AD and 82215289AH?

Ah... that explains it, then. I guess I need the AH. Thanks for clearing that up!The AD step is for the Classic and HD trucks.
