question for those that replaced the puddle and license plate lamps with led’s. did that give you any lamp out codes?
The license plates do not. I dont have puddle lights so I dont know. I wouldn't think so.

I replaced the license plate lights with cheap (10/$10) "Can-Bus compatible" LED bulbs from Amazon, no errors in 4 years. I have Trail Ridge mirrors and the puddle lights came as LEDs already. No errors there either.

Fahren LED's are really good. Many guys including myself use and love them. Do a search in the 4th gen section and you'll find a few threads on them and they are under $100 for a set.

I’m still new to owning a truck so I’m learning everything. I’m a 21 yr old girl and been wanting one since I was little like my dad lmao so trying to learn. I should’ve been a little more clear about what I was asking. I think it’s the casing? I’m wanting black headlights with LEDs inside if that makes sense.

not sure you’ll find them for under $100. Here is a link to some options. https://www.americantrucks.com/ram-...VqWtvBB3-eww9EAMYAyAAEgLh0vD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

A list of the things I’ve done to my truck the last month or so. 5 inch carbon fiber antenna, black badges, black door handle covers, new all terrain tires and I will be posting the muffler video I had done today shortly. I got the antenna as a Christmas gift, but the badges were $55 on eBay, door handle covers were $30, tires are wild country coming in at $705 and muffler itself is a flow master series 40 for $82 and had someone put it on for $40 today.

Didn’t realize I couldn’t post videos on here. Either way, super satisfied with the outcome of the muffler.

Added a Rydonair 7.5in antenna yesterday. I hated the whip antenna. I like the stubby look, seems to have the same reception as my old antenna. Only $26 so I'm happy with it

Nice! I took my antenna off a while ago, been thinking about getting a stubby... I like yours.

I run GTX CSP Minis and have been happy with them because most of the cheaper LEDs from Amazon would require you to modify the stock housing because the dust shield on the back would not screw back in due to the large heat sink on those cheaper LED bulbs. My recommendation is if the GTX bulbs are too expensive try to find something on Amazon without a fan unit on the back of the headlight bulbs, and instead find one with a more compact design. Other than that, the light output is pretty good for still using the stock headlight assemblies but if you want something different I've had my eye on the Morimoto XB / Alpharex Nova units. Little pricey though, definitely not under the $100 suggestion.
