    Anyone Have These Fogs??

    May I ask what type and where they were purchased? My lights came from CarID, but they are just re-branded on the box, otherwise, exactly the same.

    Anyone Have These Fogs??

    @JB1 I just installed these as well, same year ram as yours, and wondering if I missed something in the Alpha settings. I have both fogs set to led, however my drivers side seems to cut out occasionally. Already tried the other light, it does the same on the drivers side as well. I had the...

    Morimoto headlights

    Hey guys, dropping an update: Pulled the passenger light and found the blue DRL wire was snapped off at the light. Looks like the wire is shorter than the rest and it bore the weight of the plug. Quick solder and some zip ties all is good, well, except for the melt. Checked drivers side and it...

    Morimoto headlights

    Well, I found melting as well, & top it off one drl quit. Contacted vendor about exchange. They wanted pics, totally understandable. However they next hit me with a 1k deposit unless I send in the lights first, and pay shipping both ways! This is for a freaking DEFECTIVE product they sold! I am...

    Morimoto headlights

    Has anybody contacted them about the offer? What was the fix? Surely someone out of all the melt pics had to contact them, but the silence is deafening.

    Morimoto headlights

    4 months in on mine, and so far showing no signs of melt. We just came out of one of the hottest summers on record and just recently had a 30 day stretch with no rain , very uncommon for this area. I will keep a close eye on 'em though. As far as the sun goes, remember when the OEM all black...

    Morimoto XB Led Headlights In ACTION

    If you have the XB morimoto headlights, see here https://www.theretrofitsource.com/media/custom/upload/Ram_XB_LED_Headlights.pdf Pages 11 thru 13 deal with where the adjustments are, and how to aim the lights. The three rotation is for the adjuster. It take many turns of the screwdriver to...

    Morimoto XB Led Headlights In ACTION

    Did you adjust the washer on the vertical screw of the headlight mounting screws? Sometimes it will spin when un-mounting and re-mounting which will throw your vertical off as well.

    Stupid projector headlight upgrade

    Fair enough, point taken. Thank you.

    Stupid projector headlight upgrade

    Outdated tech now that alfaOBD can eliminate all the resistors and relay crap for less cost, a clean install, and just works.

    playing mp3 off usb - radio always starts back at track 1 when shuffling through entire playlist

    I have a music folder, and in that, I have genre folders on a 32 gig usb, roughly 1800 songs and growing. I make .m3u playlists to play them. Almost any PC or Mac music player can create these playlists, or you can even create them in notepad and save them with the .m3u extension. It is...

    Installation of Aftermarket Headlights

    Check your adjustment washer on the underside of the vertical mounting screw(silver looking nut/washer the bolt screws into). If not held in place when removing the headlights, it will spin and dewwacky your vertical as well. Adjust it, and I bet you have to lower the internal adjustment back to...

    How To: Install a 2018 4C (UAQ/UAS) Radio in 2013 - 2017 RAM

    Hey guys, read thru this thread, and with the smatterings of "do this", "you need this", I am as confused as a baby in a titty bar. 2017 Sport 8.4a Alpine, full center console, dual climate, etc. Just what exactly do I need besides the radio & hub? Do I need to get a nav radio to get android...

    Aggressive spontaneous downshifting

    I do believe you have accidentally pushed either the + or - gear button, it only takes one touch, and the truck will gear down aggressively after that touch. Stopping the motor clears the setting back to normal. Almost guarantee that is what happened, no need for concern, it's kinda like a...

    You're going to need a couple of awfully big fart cans to go with those tires and rims.

    Rambox LED

    UPDATE: I ended up having to use canbus non-polar leds to get them to work correctly. Now, no matter how long it has been sitting, opening the lid triggers the light. These Rams are a strange beast to say the least, what works for one, is almost guaranteed not to work for another.

    AlfaOBD

    I have the PC version, and was wondering if it can be uninstalled? For some reason, my version doesn't seem to have the ability to update itself, and I see there are newer updates than what I have, can I download the newer version and install it without incurring more cost? On a side note, do I...

    Rambox LED

    Hey all, have a question. Changed out my bulbs in the ramboxes to Phillips non canbus led. With the incandescent bulbs, when the truck has been sitting a while, opening the ram box would trigger the lights. With the led installed, opening the rambox, the light will be very dim, that is unless I...

    MDS....Did you turn it off or leave it on?

    I turn mine off as well, sounds like a fedex truck with it on, lol. On a side note, I can now use cruise with the MDS off. Couldn't do that before I had the cruise control recall done.

    Morimoto xb tails

    Unless something has changed and the Morimoto website hasn't been updated, it says on their website that these are NOT compatible with trucks that have factory LED tails. Could be your problem right there.

    You don't need it if you have projectors, but if quads, then yes.
