For those of you with power fold 1500 (puddle lights) Mirrors and want to change the Mirror Housing color without getting one of those cheap stick on covers...

(My 5th Gen Laramie has chrome covers & I prefer to have molded black or Diamond Black)

*** Contact forum vendor @AllMoparParts.com (Benny) for some of the best pricing around and usually a forum discount code of some sort.

Reference for Blackout grill / upper grill brow (upper grill "applique")

What I'm trying to add...
3816eaed4456aefd2f65d16405c0e414.jpg

.

Some reference VINs:

2019 1500 DT CC Bighorn Night edition
Diamond Black ( Grill/upper brow "applique")
1C6SRFFT3KN630630
28cfb4e49c750413dc0daf5a4d22583c.jpg

.

2019 1500 DT CC Bighorn Night edition
Diamond Black ( Grill/upper brow "applique")
1C6SRFFT9KN538549

.

19 Laramie 1500 CC Night edition
Diamond Black ( Grill/upper brow "applique")
1C6SRFJT1KN924597
e52a568bcd64ba3b1c60fe4810f604e9.jpg

.

All VINs use the same brow "applique" part # 6BT18TZZAI ( unpainted )

The 1st and 2nd VIN use grille 68404864AD (ready to paint primer)

The 3rd VIN uses 68404965AE

Im thinking the differences are if the inner section is painted or not.


Edit: (from 5thGenRams)
accountant said:
Grill replacement project - replace entire grill and applique
link.


Removing the chrome applique and grill on my Laramie and swapping for textured black applique and color matched grill. Also ordered matte black RAM grill letters. Dealer shipped applique and will color match the grill then ship it.


Also included parts diagram below.


I will post pics when all finished.


Part numbers:

1. Textured black applique (Rebel) 68293107AH

If you want primer ready to paint applique the part number is 6BT18TZZAH


2. Primer ready to paint grill 68404864AC (complete set with needed screws for assembly)


3. Matte black RAM grill letters 68298470AA

------------------

Mpg Edit:
Also, it looks like the options for the upper brow/ grill applique are:

- Unpainted/primered
PN: 6BT18TZZAI

- Molded Matte Black (Rebel)
PN: 68293107AH

- Chrome
PN: 6BT13SZ0AJ

Mine (molded black) are apparently going to be a 'xmas present from the kids' , you can get first crack at mine when they come off. I'll post some YouTube video links for removing the mirror glass/cover shortly.

Not new. Your options are new unpainted, or get one used already painted.

Based on the info I found elsewhere, yes.
I'd confirm with AllMoparParts (Benny) first.

The parts don't specify color on the website. How do I contact someone to verify I'm ordering the correct items?
