LED bed lighting... anyone have it?

[Papa Red]

Does anyone have the LED bed lighting package on their truck? Do you like it? Does it work good? It sounds good and it's only a $165 option. Looking to see what others think about it. Thanks.

The bed lighting is awesome, I got it with the bed utility group. It's definitely worth it in my opinion.

My son-in-law has it on his 2019 1500. Very nice! I ordered it for my new 2020 2500.

I did add it to my build sheet. Now I just need to get this truck ordered!

Had it on my “17” and absolutely would not be without it again. But then I have a tonneau so it’s a must for me. I bought my 19 Lone Star off the lot. The bed utility group was one of the options it didn’t have that I wanted so I negotiated to have the dealer add the bed lights and spray in liner. Thinking about ordering the rails and bed divider now.

You must have the Ram Box, as the divider is only available with that option.

I have the bed lighting as part of the BUG and it works good, although I think it would be better if there were more lights rather than just the two in the back. Yes, they face forward, but when you've got stuff in there it does tend to block them.

Also, seems weird they don't convert the "cargo lamp" (third brake light housing) to LED as well.

I like it but you have to walk to the cab to turn them on for a long period of time

The button in the back doesn't keep them on?

Worth every penny. Love mine!

Its a must have, awesome feature.

No, they’re on a timer. Which is fine by me. I’m the guy who would forget to turn them off and kill my battery. The timer can be adjusted though.

Pretty sure the RAM, as well as just about every other modern vehicle, will cut power to any/everything if the battery voltage drops below a certain level.

How do you adjust the timer? I didn't see anything about that in the manual, and haven't seen it in any of the option/setting screens.

I’ll stand corrected. The timing cannot be adjusted.

If you added your own bed lighting, where did you tap into for power?

do you guys know how much dealer would charged to install the bed LED kit (factory led kit) ? trying to decide if I'm going to get it. I'm going to have a cap on mine (sadly but its needed) and the cap will have 2 long LED strip on the top.

Had the dealer add it on mine when I bought it so what they charged me might not be a true barometer. They wrote up as a $320.00 add on. I know you can buy the OEM kit from Mopar Parts online for $110.00. They told me it requires a 2 hour shop labor charge so that will vary from dealer to dealer.

I had them added b/c I always have a tonneau on my trucks, so to me they are a must have option.
