Installed the Mopar retractable bed step to help get my fat butt into the bed of the truck. Easy install and works great.

Looks good, what does it look like from further away. Does it hang down way below the bumper? Was it difficult to install? I know I'm asking way to many questions.

Mine came from the factory installed and even with my white truck you don’t notice it unless your standing right next to the truck looking for it

Thanks, I was wondering if it was noticeable if you were looking at the truck from behind.

Very easy to install. Remove two bolts install it and add the third one that is supplied. Took me about 1/2 hour. The only thing you can see when it is retracted is the little step to open it. It works really well too.

Mine came factory as well and I only noticed it 2 weeks after I had the truck.

My last two Rams had bedliners and I was not fortunate enough to get one this time around. I must say that it felt like part of my soul was missing. I am happy to say my soul is now complete. Found a local small business that does quality work without paying a gigantic markup.

Looks GREAT!! Mine came with a spray in bedliner...first time having one. Is it normal or expected to have a slight gap in coverage? Back left corner on mine has a small see thru gap at the seam. Just wondering if I point it out to the dealer?

Thanks for the info, can you tell me what part numbers the latest version is at?

Haven't heard of those, I'll be interested to hear how they do at night
I go to work at 5 AM so I have been using them the last few days. So far so good, they are working great, they really light up the road. Way better than the factory bulbs. $55 for all four bulbs for the high and low beams I thought they were worth a try.

Husky mud flaps and X-Cover Low Profile Tonneau yesterday and APS iBoard 6” running boards today. Cargo and 3rd brake light bulbs tomorrow from Lasfit. View attachment 71085 View attachment 71086
I hope you have better luck with your Lasfit brake light bulb then I did. I’m referring to the key not located problem when you change the CHMSL bulb.

I hard wired my radar detector using a fuse tap and used double stick 3M tape to mount it to my mirror. I bent the mount slightly with my hands so it would contour to the mirror better. We'll see how long it stays up there.

Pretty slick. I gave up trying to mount mine high in the Ram. It gets in the way of the sun visor.
You may want to bend that mount to make the detector level. Makes a big difference in long range 'sniff's' of radar. You're shorting yourself advanced warning having it pointing skyward. Just sayin.

Noticed it today while driving and bent it a little more so it is level. It sat in the heat all day today and it still feels totally solid.
