Has anyone received their amp running boards yet? I’m curious to see how hard they are to install compared to the oem ones.

From the videos and instruction sheets I've seen it appears the AMP power boards are easier to install than the Mopar ones. The wiring for the AMP is simpler and does not require any dealer intervention.

But the overall install of the Mopar seems more professional to me.

I will probably go with the Mopar but it does require the computer to be flashed which means a costly dealer visit.

I've seen them on a few sites marked to $1300 down from $1500 list. Some charge exorbitant shipping though.

I will wait for January to order mine because 'responsibilities' :D

I’ll have to go to their site and see what options they are offering.

they dont have them listed on their site yet, but you can order them online. I was hoping to see some instructions posted how to install them by now.

That’s cool, do they offer ones that have lights actually on the steps when they deploy ?

I asked this question while on a call to Amp Research. I was wondering if they manufactured them for the 2019 Ram 1500.
They do not manufacture them for any of the auto companies, but he told me, since they own the patent rights, they receive money for the use.

I like the light on the AMP’s but am going to wait till the OEM ones come off of backorder (Feb 19th according to a couple dealers in my area) because I want them to integrate into the UConnect System as opposed to having a separate switch to manually deploy or retract. My only complaint about the OEM’s when I had them on my Limited was that they seem to deploy slower compared to the AMP’s. Not a huge deal but when exiting the vehicle I either found myself waiting a second for them to deploy or stepping on them as they were deploying.

I have some tubes steps waiting to be installed to get me (re: my family) by until the OEM’s come in.

^^^. I’m feeling that I am also going to add a set of the oem ones to my truck for the same reason as you. Plus I have a basic 8.4 non nav so I need to make 100% sure it will work with my head unit..

From memory as I do not have them on my new truck yet but on my Limited I do not believe they were lit but the puddle lights and the light from the interior when the door was opened did light them sufficiently enough to know what you were stepping on.

Just need to make sure for my 83 year old mother in-law before I commit to this. :)
