id love to see someone do this with the sport rear bumper with the exhaust... it looks like it would be a pain in the balls to do it, my brother just did this mod to his 08

Not a sport but I think the bumper is the same.

This is cool as hell. I did mine when I got my 2014, painted the bumpers to match (Tradesman truck) and then I decided lets cut holes in my freshly painted bumper!! haha

I did this back in Aug of 2014 and I haven't had any issues with these $30 Amazon LED pods. Love them.

Have the wired up to my cargo lamp as well as my back up!

I got the flood version so it's flooding the area behind my truck with light, not throwing it 200 yards behind me!

I removed the sensors and moved the harnesses out of the way.

you should be able to tap it right into the fuse so that when the cargo light comes on they turn on, i just wired a set for a friend in the bumper of his Nissan Titan, we hooked them up to his reverse lights.. i tried to talk him into wiring it to a separate switch as FU lights but noo mr goody two shoes didnt want that lol.. the titans are so much easier to work on electrical wise than the ram

So I found that it's the white/tan wire for the cargo light. I'd like to use that and have them come on with the reverse lights as well. Any additional wiring need to be done or can I tap them both together and have it work.

I have all of my lighting set to turn on with vehicle control or switches, you have to add in relays and diodes so you don't back feed and fry your body controller.
