Hey Guys - This is my first post. A few Months ago I bought a 21 Ram 1500 Classic and am in Love with my Truck. The only part I am not completely loving is my headlights and taillights. I would love to swap them out for something sharper looking. I love the lights on the 5th Gen just not the body. I am having difficulty locating lights for my truck. Most websites when I enter the year it only shows 5th Gen. Should I be searching for 2018 parts?

Has anyone upgraded their lights and have a recommendation? I'm in Canada if that helps at all.

Thanks!

I have the same problem with finding parts for my '19 Classic. So yes if they don't have "classic" as a choice search for parts for a 2018. I still have my stock smoked headlights but I put LED's in them however I did upgrade to Alpharex taillights. They look completely different. No one else has anything that looks like these. I also changed my tailgate badge for a lighted one.

And welcome to the site!

Welcome to the ram forum and yes I would just search up to 2018 as the classic is still the 4th gen 09-18.

Yes, you should search for 2018 unless the site has 2021 DS Classic/4th Gen and DT 5th gen options.

For tail lights there are stock Gen 4.5 2019+ 2500 and 3500 options that look great and work, and Ontario wreckers occasionally have decent deals.

For headlights all the aftermarket options I like (AlphaRex and Morimoto) are fairly expensive with exchange and import fees. I don't mind the black quads mine came with.

The more I look into the Headlights I think I am going to leave them stock.

I never thought about checking out Wrecker's shop. Great Idea!

I am for sure set on changing out the Taillight's though.
