This one says it fits newer models, and claims totally undetected by dealer BUT YES, it's OVER $100

what SitKneelBend said!!! Wadestar! Great guy and these are perfect oem fit. I have 2, One just for slim case on phone, one that fits a slim fast charge pad. Works great. Phone always charging while in case.

Ok, thanks. I don't have a floor console in my truck, so i guess that wouldn't work for me. I got a Macally cupholder mounted phone holder and a Votex stubby antenna from Amazon today. Hopefully, the phone will be mounted high enough and the antenna will have enough gain to be useful.

Round 2 for me on this mod
Custom Dash Emblem “Warlock” Version 2 - silver background with gloss finish. I like that it matches the satin trim on my truck. Also, my brother in law thought the emblem came stock with my truck, so kudos to Nate at rebadge!

Cabin filter mod and stubby antenna! Cheap and functional!

How’s this been working out for you so far? I was thinking about buying one.

You can also find them at Harbor Freight. With a 20% coupon they're cheaper than Home Depot and they work pretty good.

Installed LED switchbacks using the reach behind method (no light removal)... worked perfect!!!
OBDMX is getting here in a day or 2 but using running lights with fogs on and they work perfect, I will probably NEVER set them to be my DRLs by themselves...

I now have an extra pair of huge LED Turn Signal lights...

I actually bought them by mistake for my 2007 that was totaled in Oct, and I dug them out for my 2017... it says on Ebay they were not supposed to be "compatible" but they work perfect so far, AND they are 3157 so I don't see how they cannot work. They are as bright as I need them to be.

Would mind detailing hiw you have them setup? Configured as DRL? Are they white for DRL and then drop out to yellow for turn signal? What changes are required to make this work?

I don't have them set as DRL yet... I got AlphaOBD but didn't configure yet...
There were just Plug and play... when driving lights are on they are white till blinker kicks in, then they are an amber turn signal... then back to white.
I used the EASY CHANGE method thru the wheel well, just took out stock blinkers and pluged these in... worked without configuring anything

(however, during daytime they are NOT the brightest on the market)

Check out Big Daddy's Videos on how to EZ change them and also his SwitchBacks he bought... they are brighter.
Big Daddy also has a VID on DRL config

I appreciate the info. I have AlphaODB and have my stock parking lamps configured as DRL. I have read about problems getting switchbacks to work with White DRL and then Amber Turn Signals. Just trying to see what is working for different setups.

HIDs. For all of you with projector lamps there's no reason to run stock halogen bulbs, light output has increased 10-fold with these. Mine are from DDM tuning, their 35w 4300k plus canbus kit.
