Thanks! I thought the chrome ram head was pretty gaudy! The billet badge was a little pricey, but totally worth it!. Not a big fan of all the Ram badges/stickers. First day I owned it, I peeled off the Sport stickers. I put grey vinyl on the door emblems and grill emblem. I may switch those to black since my running boards will be black. Can't wait to get the new rims, tires, and lift! I will post picks next week when it's done.

No issue at all with the MFT. The cab end was the tricky part with the corner bed braces. It took a little maneuvering, but the locking rods on the front fit into the bolt holes for the corner bed braces. I don't anticipate using the front lid a ton, so I'm not super concerned about that. No leaks anywhere now. Initially, there was a bit of a gap on the cab end, but Diamondback sends extra weather stripping specifically for that purpose. Been through several rain storms and the car wash a few times. No leaks.
Thanks for the information. Anticipating seeing the picks of her lifted high with new shoes.

Yes, mine are hex shape. I did get a gun, but I can’t pull it tight enough for them to get tight and stay in the holes , without just popping out of the holes.
Check out this thread, they might be able to help you out better than I can.


The only other thing I can think of is to put some JB Weld on the rivnuts and let it cure to hold them in place before you use the tool to crush it tight.

But try that thread, maybe someone with more knowledge about rivets can chime in

Got my Amazon running boards installed today. Wife loves em, so I guess all is well. Install was less than an hour, which surprised me.

Im glad it's out of the way too, ive gotta get the car fixed so it can be street ready...to be track ready..haha
Black running boards on that red look amazing. Glad the little lady liked them too. Happy wife makes for a happy life. At least that is what my wife tells me! ;)

Finished up my Lasfit led conversion tonight with footwell and vanity mirrors. Also upgraded my glove box to LED as well but took a different but fun angle in there that I’ll save for my video.

Did you do anything with the upper glove box? It has that small light in the center and I can’t tell if it’s led or not already but if it is doesn’t look as bright as my aftermarket leds

Do you have specifics on which bulbs fit which lights interior / puddle lamps on a 2019 1500 Limited? Or, can you direct me to the best place to find out which bulbs to order? Thanks!

This was the interior lighting from Amazon that I ordered.

This was the youtube video instructions.

Tips on the foot lights. The bulbs for the foot light are very hard to take out by hands.... best trick to take them out is to use a small zip tie, make a loop wide enough to loop it thru the bulb, pull down to tighten the zip tie, and pull the bulb out.

Real interested in how you think the quality is in person. That’s really nice! I could see some hydro blue in that really helping the interior look.

I added a front and rear dashcam, Thinkware Q800 Pro, hid all the wires and tapped into the fuse panel.

Also had ceramic tint done this morning. Went with 35% all the way around including the panoramic sunroof, and a 5% brow tint just below the AS1 line.
