    Parking Light Out Warning

    This thread is so much gold! OP should edit the title if possible and place AlphaRex somewhere in the title, might have found the thread faster.

    SiriusXM Quality is Horrible

    I tried again when traveling to locations that have such poor cellular service I couldn't stream. It's pretty bad, SirusXM, that I quickly canceled again. As to how they stay in business, most don't care how audio sounds. Look how many don't have stereo's at home and listen to music on...

    Any known issues with oem projector headlights

    While not a solution for your problem but I do see you have ordered a set, I love my AlphaRex Pro headlights. If they don't work on install, you'll need to troubleshoot your harnesses/wiring. If they work, great! Then it was something with the OEM housing internal wiring or something.

    Headlights

    I have the AlphaRex headlights as well. For the H7 bulbs replacement to LED (I had not purchased the Luxx version), I went with the following as they are the same size dimensions as the H7 halogen bulbs and require no modifications of any kind, in addition are non-polarity so you don't have...

    Getting new headlights + tail lights

    Just added the AlphaRex Pro series G2 Black . Absolutely love them! Also the sealing is very well done, looking forward to lots of use without moisture build up. Also, so incredible looking on truck startup, has a cool activation look. Love the sequential turn signals. The video on...

    Those who tow a TT - will gas prices influence your travels?

    Just finished a trip. While gas prices sucked, it certainly didn't stop me and my family. We don't do road trips because they are inexpensive, it's the journey, destination and all the side adventures together.

    Any suggestions on aftermarket radio swap on a 13 tradesman?

    Crutchfield is the way! Their website helps you to select the features you wish and what radios and what adapter kits provide you what you desire. For example, I wanted access to factory auto details through my aftermarket radio. Went with a Kenwood DDX9707S with wireless Apple Carplay...

    Audio Upgrade & Modification Basics!

    Part of the reason you don't see a lot of the aftermarket in this thread is that the details of what you need are answered by Crutchfield. I've used them on three different car/truck installations. Just did a Kenwood DDX9707S in my 2016 RAM 1500. Best part, even if you don't purchase...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Did what was recommended and purchased a used module from the internet that came with the plugs (cut off with about 8" of the cable, so easy to solder/heat-shrink). Finally have everything to complete the park-sense. Will dig into it once I finish a concrete stairs project.

    Anyone with front sport bumper and Park sense?

    There are six sensors compared to the four in back. The "brackets" that the sensors and their rubber gaskets snap into do have different part numbers to ensure a 90 degree facing of the sensors for both the front and sides. That said, I'd added front and back parksense to my 2016 Tradesman...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Send me a PM on a 12 way connector and pin cost, I'm certainly interested.

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Much appreciated! I'll add that to my research. However, I have all the connectors and pins for C2 and C3, so I'm not sure I'd have a a $100.00 order.

    How To Add rear Park assist

    I know, only to order it and then have the vendor cancel the sale as the part wasn't on hand in their warehouse. Unless this is a new posting and they really have it.

    What size light bulbs do I have?

    Don't forget, if you go LED, you can enable the settings in AlfaOBD that allow you to skip the "resister" packs.

    LED Fog Lights question on how to secure the resistors

    No resistors in my truck for any of the lights, fog or otherwise. As stated by a previous poster, I installed LED in all my lights and then used AlfaOBD to connect to the body controller and set the lights to LED "YES" under car configuration. Easy peasy and no additional parts to fail or...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Unfortuantely, the connectors I ordered did not match. I'm thinking, I may have to purchase another 14-way connector and attempt to cut it down in size to a 12-way. Calling all the different Mopar dealers, 68080557AA is a discontinued part that is not in stock. Surprising as the 2019...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Ordered some Aptiv connectors from Mouser that appear to match the 3D CAD images of the 12-way connector. When it arrives, I'll do a fit test with the parksense module. If it fits, I'll list the part numbers.

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Drat, I can find everything I need except for 68080557AA - the 12 way connector repair kit. Anyone know who makes that and the part number? Might have to fabricate one somehow (carefully using heatshrink tubing to isolate the pins and plug them in)

    How To Add rear Park assist

    Chased down the I220 inline-body/chassis pin outs to find the pins used for Parksense. It's pins 18 -24 according to http://connectors.dcctools.com/details.htm?id=193553 and http://connectors.dcctools.com/details.htm?id=175691 for the two connectors for the inline body/chassis. I'd ordered...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    @skuppy069 for the connectors on the parksense module itself, is the connection to the module for the front sensors the same 8 pin repair kit as the one used for the rear parksense connection? Any chance you have the pin out needed for the front connection? UPDATE: I found that the front...

    How To Add rear Park assist

    OK, joining the thread as I attempt to add Front/Rear Park Assist to a 2016 RAM 1500 Tradesman. I've had a bent rear bumper for about a year and a family members 2500 accidentally backed into my front bumper, I used it as the opportunity to upgrade my bumpers. Front with both sensors and...

    Fog lights

    Had a bumper accident, so I simply replaced the front bumper with one that had the holes for the fog lights. M2Mods has an excellent cable that helped make it all factory like. There's a DYI article on how to do this. Factory like install for tradesman...

    Curious, Dealer Stickier Lied, anything I can do?

    Interesting ... Sounds similar to a Carfax originated sale I had gone through with a dealership for a used vehicle in the past. As the majority of a particular trim level had a specific transmission as the default it was reported wrong. Fortunately it also had extra options not reported...
