Hello all,
I have a 2016 Big Horn and I'm looking to add a set of factory chrome trimmed LED tail lights to it. I picked up a set from a site member (Mopar part# 68093079AC and 68093078AC) and the 2013+ harness adapters from retroshop. However, I thought I saw a thread recently about certain years of factory LED tail lights (ones with different part numbers than mine) not working on certain models. Does anyone know if there is a difference and if the ones I have will work with my truck?

Thanks
Ryan

Try it out lol. Only two screws and pull gently.

LOL. That is an easy way to find out. Maybe I'll try it out next week after I dig the truck out. :)

What's really insane is that was taken at 12p today before the heavy stuff came. Lol. Now there's nearly 30" outside my door. Lol

I can't even remember the last time we got that much snow here in a 48 hour period. That's sad since I grew up with that happening often.

What is all that white stuff?!?!? Did your cocaine stash blow up??? haha that's ridiculous. I was driving at 2am last night and it was coming down "heavy" here in GA, but nothing like that and it really didn't stick that long.

I have a 15 Big Horn and I added the factory Sport LED taillights with the adapters from RetroShop and they work perfectly. Not sure if they changed anything on the 16.

Ok great. Where and how did you mount your load resistors?

I got my Laramie style LED tails from a fellow member for $325 shipped and the adapters from Retro were around $135 shipped.

I mounted them off to the side of the taillight with a self tapping metal screw. Just be careful not to make the same mistake I did and drill into the bed. Make sure you get a screw that's not too long
