Hey, was looking at putting leds in the lights in my interior but read lots of posts about flickering or them not working, I have a 2017 ram 1500 crew sport. Was wondering if there was a brand anyone has tried that has been good? no codes, flickering or any other problems. Thanks kyle

Does your sport not already have LED’s? I bought mine from superbrightleds.com all with canbus and no flickering whatsoever.

I just bought some led from Walmart... That way if they had an issue I could just return them... So far no issues in my 18 express cc....

They also have regular white led but I wanted the ********** vibe to match the truck...efd215ac0be16c35cb49c8d5795dc269.jpg

Here is what I used on my 2017 CC, mostly what Boosted recommended, with some changes because of the differences between 2014 & 2017. So far so good, it's been almost 2 months and no problems.

Map lights, Licence plate lights and wheel well courtesy lights

Cargo lights, 3rd brake light, reverse lights

Rear Passenger light

How do those fog lights look? Bright? Any blue coloring?

Also wondering if the H11 version is worth a try...

I don't see any bluing and they are bright, very happy with them, especially for the price! They are indexable to ensure the chip set is facing the proper direction. They were just a tiny bit loose in the socket, so I took the o-ring off the old bulb and doubled up on the LED, it went in tight and has been completely water tight.

Considering doing this mod. I even have the deep water blue pearl color like your truck

Where do you find the bulbs in Walmart and under what name?

Also-do they screw with your eyes/vision much at night? I’m almost thinking they’d be better on your night vision than the regular yellows/whites.

Thanks

Mine were just in the automotive section below all the regular bulbs... Ill have to check the package tomorrow but they are brighter than stock and it improves my night vision if the wife needs a light when driving at night...

These were the brand but mine were the blue version which Walmart carries in stock at my two local stores...

Take your pick from these videos for the map lights. Popping the lense is easy. Getting the old light out is tricky. I used a piece of electrical tape to get a better grip on the old bulbs and that worked for me. 1 of those videos shows a guy using pliers with success.

I have yet to do the dome but that's a goofy bulb.

Hmmm, mine were incandescent bulbs. Easy to see but really recessed in the sockets making them hard to get to. Being a 2018 yours may be leds already???
