i need to order a 911 plug from you, please. I also have a question about updating my firmware. I did the 8.4 conversion roughly 5 years ago on my '13 Ram 1500 SLT. I bought the 8.4 radio from LKQ, and while they said it was from a '15 Ram, I recall having problems trying to update it. As I recall, I believe I found that it came from a 15 Jeep Cherokee or Grand Cherokee. I am showing to have Software version 13.44.0. My latest map database shows as 20130926. Any suggestions on how to proceed? I definitely don't want to brick it, but I do have the crazy nav issues I have seen discussed here. Thanks for any guidance!

What's the exact PN on the back of the radio? (ie 68238619Ax)

If it matches one of the ones listed in the OP of the following update thread, you should be able to use the related update....

INFO - 2013-2017 8.4AN FW Notes (RA4/VP4 NA).

Hi everyone!

Deereguy and I decided to start a little side project to help out our fellow members with various wiring harnesses and mods for some of the smaller projects and threads around the 4th Gen section for our 2013-2018 trucks.

Each of us will be focusing on specific projects as listed in the next 4-5 posts.

We are calling our joint venture: M² Mods

For now, contact us via Private Message (pm)/conversation so we can give you our contact info with all the details (click our user profile picture). Thank you in advance.

------------ ORDER UPDATES/ETAs -----------


Side note: ** DeereGuy got promoted at his day job and will only be offering the Obd Bypass Harness and UAQ USB Hub Adapter harness once he runs out of heated seat and Cargo Cam harness parts. See DeereGuy Status.

By purchasing and/or installing any of these custom items (harness, bypass plugs, etc) you agree to absolv M² Mods, Mpgrimm2, Deereguy, and all associates of any and all damages that may occur as a result of installing said item.

Additionally, we reserve the right to refuse/cancel an order at our discretion.

This is awesome work you guys do, you are fulfilling some big holes left by Ram in their options. I’m trying to find a way to tap into my backup camera wiring in my 2020 3500 Tradesman when I use my tailgate sander in the winter since it’s blocked when that thing is on.

Quick question
I have a Express didn't have Fog lights but my offroad bumper had them and I installed a light switch with factory fog light button.

So we'll the fog light harness just plug in and make the switch work.
Than just Alphaobd to activate it

And can I get a harness for powerseats

And the 110 dash plug

You Fella's seem to be the wiring guru's on here :) .
I have a pretty big project on hand - swapping the entire sport interior into an ST RCSB. 2014-2014 both trucks.
The dash i have came complete with the wiring harness, i also have the mirror and overhead console and i have the complete harness from the CC donor from the 3rd brake light to the fuse box

Should the Dash and Overhead console be pretty much plug and play as they are from the same truck?

I do have the Alpha OBD to enable things when i get it wired and have a new RF Hub for the remote start- keyless entry mod.

Just an update...

I won't be taking any new orders until 8/7/20

Had a bunch of orders come in this past week and I don't want to give folks excessive ETA's. (I think I've covered everyone that's messaged me recently)


Will try and answer any questions in the meantime. Thanks again everyone for the support!

Mike G.

Are you taking orders for fog light jumper harness?? 2011 2500 SLT. I’ve got a 2 wire plug coming off my headlight harness at the drivers side (dummy plugged currently) but the factory fog light wiring kit I bought has a 4 wire plug. Guess I need the jumper or.....??? New to Rams.

side note...I replaced the non fog light bumper to one with cutouts and got a factory headlight switch with the fog light option. I do know I’ll have to “turn them on” in the bcm which will be done with AlfaObd.
