Here’s one for under $10. Since I took my tailgate off and use the bumper to get into my lifted Power Wagon, I got tired of slipping and falling on my ass since the cutout is so slick. A piece of grip tape later and problem solved.

HIDs. For all of you with projector lamps there's no reason to run stock halogen bulbs, light output has increased 10-fold with these. Mine are from DDM tuning, their 35w 4300k plus canbus kit.

Do you need a whole kit or just bulbs? Which specific items did you buy? I have a 2019 Warlock too, looking to improve the headlights.

Swapped for a Grand Cherokee master switch cluster so the mirror controls light up

Cool!

Do you have the product number of the Grand Cherokee master switch cluster? Or the ebay or Amazon seller?

Is it just plug and play by just replacing the original with this one? No extra wiring etc...?

I've been looking for a replacement that wasn't green lights, would this work in a 2012? Part no?

If you have a single rear connector on your door switch it’ll work. If you have two connectors (I think 09-15 have two connectors) then it will not work.

What the What?????

If that was a brake light, why is it constantly blinking without the brakes applied? I'm missing something.
The brake is being applied and the red light is flashing to create awareness.
Although in my experience, the flashing usually only occurs for 3 cycles and then maintains solid red.
I also did a 4th brake light. Not for added safety as much but more for style......

I had the chrome version of that but after not quite a year the chrome started to peel really bad so I put my oem emblem back on.
Maybe the black ones are better?
If I were to do it again, I’d wire it to only come on with brakes applied

This summer I will have mine for a year. So far it seems the same as when I installed it.
No fading, leaks, or burnout LEDs.
Probably at the end of the summer I'll do a 1 year review about it. people seem to dig it.
Sorry yours peeled brother.
And I thought about doing the same thing, disconnecting the running light part of it...

For those of you that have added one of these Stainless Steel RAM Dial Shifter Trim Plates...

213-K6njiGL._AC_UL320_ML3_.jpg 51ldJhO92vL._AC_UL320_ML3_.jpg


If you found the outside edges to be kinda sharp as some have complained...

Just slide one of these over the shifter knob!!!!

They work great, and stick past the knob enough so you never touch the plate...

(shown without the plate on cuz I don't have one yet...LOL)



I now have 2 EXTRA of these!!!

If anybody wants one, PM me... $5 and it's in the mail
