Sold off the '18...maybe another soon.
Engine
Hemi 5.7
No adapter needed, everything is built into the led already, just plug n play. No errors in the dash either.

For me it was more of a fun change to be different, not gotten the chance to test in the fog yet. The led pattern is very strong and bright (even though it may not look in the video). I would predict they would do very good in thick fog but again havent gotten the chance to test it in fog.

Try em, if you dont like them you can send back within 45 days no questions asked, and a year warranty if they break

Thanks for the follow up. They're on sale right now, too. Making it tough to turn away...

I have to do my required overthinking hours on it before pulling the trigger...may just end up giving them a shot.

Thanks again!

Took it to the dealer for the mandatory yearly state inspection and to have them fix the lower radiator hose they messed up 2 weeks ago when they replaced the water pump (under warranty, only reason dealer did it).

Then I spent an hour washing off the layer of weird brown scuzz that was all over the truck when I picked it up. It looked like someone had sprayed dirty water all over the truck and let it dry there. (And it hadn't rained all day, so it wasn't that.)

Been a crazy couple of weeks so I had to reward myself (and the truck). Bought a Yakima Backroad bike rack. Super impressed with it. Holds my bike real snug. Even matches the truck :) Then I got a new 7 inch antenna (last one blew off in a bad storm going through Kansas). Lastly, had to represent my favorite pro sports team in enemy territory. Next, new wheels.

Been waiting for a month for my Remin dash kit to get shipped from Carid. Won’t be ordering from that site again anytime soon.

Carid lost my business a long time ago. They jerk you around way to much.

Amazing. Just went through this exact fiasco.
Remin dash kit, CARid, month wait and then tried to keep my money when I cancelled.
"We have to wait for the manufacturer to approve the cancellation before a refund can be issued"
What?!? After several form letter emails stalling me I instituted a chargeback with Visa.
Lo and behold, next day I get email saying refund has been issued. (along with a 10% coupon! lol)

That’s where I got my Power Stop brake kit from. Relatively quick shipping, but the customer service is rediculous to get ahold of. Don’t plan on doing any more biz there myself

Swapped in some LED turn signal bulbs and put my Laminx overlays on the fogs.

Notes:
-Even with changing the park and turn signals to LED in ALFAOBD, I still get a hyper flash and bulb put errors. Anyone got any suggestions?
-Laminx overlays didn’t cover the whole lens. What gives??

That is one beastly looking rig you’ve got there... what front bumper is that?



Love that trailer! Would love to have one, and the need for it, too!



Would love to get more details on some of the other parts I see on that first truck. Do you have a link?

Those headlights look AWESOME. Retrofitting a set is something I’d love to do, just don’t have a good space or the patience for it.


Much appreciated. I'm sure I'll be putting it to good use once the Concourse scene starts up again

Others have complained about the Latin-X not fitting the entire lense. I think it has something to do with the curvature of the lense, and if it covered the entire surface, it would have wrinkles or would not adhere properly. I’m not sure if this is the reason but I think I remember a post about this exact issue and everyone coming to that conclusion. Could be wrong though.

As for the LED’s and AlfaOBD, I’m going to guess there is a setting in Alfa you did not change. I know with my 2012, I had to change 3-4 different settings for the hyper flash and bulb out warnings to go away for my custom retrofit build where my turn signals were profile prism led strips.

Try asking in the4th gen mega AlfaOBD thread. Has a couple thousand replies and really good info on how to do specific changes.
