What's your favorite low-cost Amazon upgrade?

No front plate requirement in Indiana.

You guys with no front plate requirement have it made. They ruin the front end of all vehicles. I bought a fairly dark tint plate cover for mine to blend it in a bit. So far haven’t been hassled.

Running tinted plate covers is just as illegal as no front plate. I'll take my chances with no players for better aesthetics

I drive by cops all the time and they pay no attention to me. As always though it only takes one having a bad day. Figure the worst they will do is tell me to remove them so I’m not worried about it. They have much bigger things to bust people for.

Did yours come with the front license plate or did you purchase separately? Can you send a link for the bracket if you purchased?

Moved from NJ to NC so front licence plate no longer needed. I could either plug the holes or put one of these plates on.

Better than open holes, or an ugly plastic plate frame

I saw a post from a guy on the Facebook Ram 1500 thread. While most of those posts are useless, this was a good one.

USB rechargeable flashlights I leave plugged into the center console.

I used to have something similar in my Jeep. It was smaller and plugged directly into the cigarette lighter. I wonder what happened to it.

Yes, mirrors and tail light modules were from the dealer and a wiring harness from jimmy07. I bought the obd2 and sgw bypass on amazon. Those two are well worth the money to me.

Do you by chance have part numbers for the mirrors and modules?

I threw receipts away, but my mirrors are a part# for billet silver, which is why you see so many different part numbers if you look online- it’s a different part number for a complete assembly in each color variation, and for the different types of mirror options.

I had one of those too, but I like this because it’s in the center armrest and out of site.

Not exactly RAM only but I remembered I bought this undercarriage power washer attachment from Amazon for around $30 or so a couple years back.
This is just a power washer attachment with quick release connector, it does not spray soap or anything although I am certain if you do some modifications you can use the foam cannon with it.
This is good for power washing the underside of your truck if you go through mud/ snow/ offroad/ general cleaning. This is also a very good idea if you do your own oil change and stuff.

However, if I was to buy this again, I'd go with something that has bigger wheels so it's easier to use, and something with more nozzles. As you can see, my left side nozzle is on its way out already after no more than 30 times of usage.

Am I correct that you need fairly good pressure to get a quality spray?

Yep. I bought this one. Your nozzle is probably just plugged. There's not much that can go wrong with them.

If you don't have at least a 2500 PSI pressure washer, it won't work very well.

very likely it got plugged. I'll find one day and take a closer look. so far my undercarriage is still relatively easy to clean so missing one is not that big of a deal lol
