Installed my Recon taillights and 3rd brake light

[NJ4X4]

Not cheap to buy, but I'm impressed with them. Looks waaaay better on my delmonico red than the base halogen lights. The red below the tinted lens matches the red on the truck.

NJ, that all looks excellent. are the three pieces just plug and play? any harness issues?? wonder if they'll cross over to a '17. doesn't look much different in shape...

Thanks. Everything was plug and play, no issues with the harness or error codes. They say they're for 5th gens only, but I agree, looks like the same shape. Actually, when I get a chance, I'll set my 5th gen take-offs next to my 4th gen take-offs that I still have and see what's different between them.

thanks brother. ya know I haven't even noticed what the "newer" OEM tail light on 5thG 1500 even look like. there is a bazillion RAM trucks driving around here in The Valley, I gotta pay attention next time I see one. my '17's rear cans are fine, they're design is little bland, but still in spotless shape. hell the whole truck is, it's a street only 2wd parking lot princess, I'll freely admit that. but I might throw something back there a little different at some point, hell it might only even be the newer 5thG stuff.

Found this thread.... apparently, taillights from a 5th gen 2500 will fit a 4th gen.

5th gen tail lights

5th gen tail lights…. Do 5th gen tail lights fit in a 4th gen body? Let’s be honest the 5th gen tail lights look sick looking to swap my 4th fan to 5th gen lights. Do I need a different wiring harness? all info appreciated and links would help thanks guys
