OEM Taillights

[Hoythews71]

Passenger side taillight shattered over the weekend. Looking to replace with OEM, but my dealership quoted me $800+ for replacement parts. Anyone done an aftermarket swap and willing to sell their old lamps? I have a Laramie Sport Blackout package, so that lamp has all the bells/whistles like blind spot, crossing detection, LED outer, etc.

Thanks for the help.

I recently changed my led taillight. Mine got busted as well. I bought an OEM taillight. My brother in law who's a technician with fca told me to remove the blind spot module in the old taillight and sell it online. Apparently you can't buy it without buying the whole taillight. It can go for a couple hundred bucks. Just a suggestion to recoup some of the money spent on an OEM taillight

Found the same taillight in rockauto.com for under $600. Dealership said they’ll price match and throw in a few extras since they think the price is so ridiculous as well. Looks like I’ll be buying new.

At moparwholesaleparts.com the LED Lamps w/ Blind Spot are $550.00 and with out is $363.00. I recently bought the LED Headlight assemblies from them and can say i was not disappointed. The order shipped in 3 days and was at my doorstep within 7.

If my original blind spot/crossing monitors are still operational, would I be able to swap those into the bottom barrel $363 lamp unit?

Right around Page 3 they talk about doing that. i believe you'd need to buy an additional wiring harness to make it work as the LED's w/o Blind spot only have one plug and the ones w/ blind spot have two...https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/is-it-possible-to-add-blind-spot.13516/

Is it possible to add Blind Spot?

Hi, Was wondering if it's possible to add blind spot to my level 2 bighorn (has the 7 inch cluster which would be crucial I assume) with the LED package. It would be great to have when towing my travel trailer. I know I would need the blind spot detection modules and new left and right side...

I noticed on mine both sides have hairline cracks and located by the turn signals so, will have to take it in for replacement.
