So I bought the Diode Dynamic SS3 Pro fog light kit for my truck with the LED lighting. The kit says it's only for trucks with non LED lights, but I figured I could make it work. For LED equipped trucks you will also need the brackets and bezels from a non led truck. I needed the bezels with sensors. The wiring works with the factory fog light button.
Ram part # 68403915AA Halogen fog light brackets
Ram part #68318117AB Fog light bezel kit with parking sensors

I watched this video
and install was pretty simple. One thing I would recommend is an 8mm ratcheting wrench.

Thank you! There is another thread going and the bracket part number was incorrect.

Yes, I'm following that thread and ordered that part number first. Then I looked it up myself and found the correct piece.

Right on, I ordered the same ones earlier this afternoon. Did you have to order any extra screws for the brackets or bezels? It was there enough from the original fog lights?

How long did install take? And was there enough room to get in there without taking the tire off?

also curious if you had to switch the positive and negative wire around , some videos I saw said you have to do that or test them?

You only need the kit, the brackets, and the bezels. The screws will get reused.

Install took probably 3 hrs give or take, but I work slow! I took the wheel off and removed the bottom wheel liner. The main wheel well liner I removed the front half of the screws and folded it back. You dont need to switch any wires. The adapter in the kit is reversible.

So with their wiring it’s plug and play then, you didn’t have to buy or change anything?
Let’s see some pictures of how it looks!

I have been looking on the mopar site and I was hoping someone might know the correct bezel part number for trucks without sensors. There are so many of them that come up I don’t want to purchase the wrong bezels. Thanks and your truck looks great.

What trim level do you have and do you have the LED or halogen fog lights currently?

I went with max! Yep it came with everything needed, it has all the options you need in the menus. I tested it at night only for a few minutes and 100 happy with it, they are brighter than stock headlights lol

Did you ever get around to some nighttime photos? Still like the lights? Im working on switching to LED and debating Factory LED Fogs or going with these. Close to same price to swap.
