I just bought a 2015 Ram this week. I'm selling my 2003. Anyways, in my 2003, I have Hella 80w foglamp bulbs (It has the round style fog lamps). Love them! I had zero issues with them as far as heat goes. Before I sell the truck, I want to swap them out with each other. Do you think there would be any heat/melting issues installing the 80 watt bulbs in the vertical style 2015 lights?

I don't think there would be. I actually switched to two LED light bars behind my grill. Way more light output and they look amazing. Just some food for thought

Thanks guys. I'll go LED eventually. This will be free for me right now for the time being, since I already own them. Now if we'd just get some nice weather, I could switch them out real quick. LOL
