how hard would this be to do? i might be the only one who likes the newer tails better... is there an adaptor you can buy or something to get the new tails wires into the existing wires?

i don't think there is anything you can purchase to make it plug and play...you will have to cut and rewire to make it work

The 2007-2008 Dodge Ram has two connectors instead of 1 like the 2003-2006. It will work, but will require some wiring and a couple of clips.

I found this walkthru from Recon

Very interesting thanks for the link.

I my self would much rather have the newer bubble style lights.

There was a thread on this not long ago,it has been done but a lot of work is involved in doing this..One thing that would consiner me is if your truck is a 06 with the can bus and tipm system it may not work,beings the 07 also had the tipm and I am sure there are different since the 2 vs 3 bulb deal.

If I was to try anything it would be the link that hemibabe listed,it seems like that would work.

I think I have heard that tail lights are a pain to open up but I wonder if the lens could just be swapped
