I did something similar to Swine's LED Pod Install, but I don't have the means to make/weld the brackets. See Pictures that follow.
- Swine's: LED light bars in bumper (tow hook Location)
-------------------- Parts List --------------------------
- 7" LED Cree "Spot" Lights ($26 at eBay)
. . or 9" LED Cree Lights similar to Swine's ($32 at eBay)
- (2) 9005/9006 compatible "Male" connectors ($8 5pk at eBay)
- Black RTV sealant (approx $4 at local WalMart)
- (1) Can of Flat Black Acrylic Enamel Spray Paint/Primer
- 4" x 36" 14ga Slotted Steel Strap/plate (approx. $12 at local ACE Hardware)
- (2 to 4 sets) M8 x 16mm Hex Bolts, Flat washers, & "****" Lock nuts (a few $ at local ACE Hw)
----------------------- THE INSTALL --------------------------
01. Crimp & solder Male 9005/9006 connector pins on LED Light wires (install seals first!), then insert into correct pin cavities to match foglight harness.
ie Positive/Red wire = ORG/Wht wire (or YEL/Wht) on Mopar harness and Negative/Blk wire = Blk wire on Mopar Harness.
02. Seal up backside of connector cavities with RTV, even with back of connector shell. Set aside to cure/dry.
03. Cut the 4" strap to approximately 13-5/8" long & file rough edges
I have 17 3500 that didn't come with factory fog lights but there was the 8 pin harness with a plug by the front driver wheel well. I got a used ranch hand with the sensors and fog lights and harness. I installed the bumper and plugged the harness in. I also got the factory fog light headlamp switch. After enabling the fog lights in Alfa OBD, I am now able to get the indicator on the dash to work but nothing coming out of the fog lights. Now, the 8 pin harness I plugged in that was already there has no missing terminals so I assumed I didn't need a jumper harness. Is there something different about mine or would this connector work? ThanksOld thread, I know, but the only one I've found that shows the "extension" harness I need. Are you still building these to fit a 17 3500 Ram? If so, I'm looking for one....View attachment 138702

Hey how do I get a female connectorDISCLAIMER: I am not a coder, developer, software guru, electrical engineer, etc. but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express once!
With that said, all vehicle/electrical mods are at your own risk. Now have fun!
