Review on Dodge Ram 1500 2500 3500 Roof Cab Clearance Lamps Light Kit Mopar OEM: Enhance Visibility with Authentic Dodge Accessories by Vincent Bain

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product for marker lights

Installed on a 2012 Ram 1500 Outdoorsman 4x4. This kit is part of MOPAR Original Equipment and comes with OEM instructions/template. Excellent build quality all around and easy enough to install. The instructions are mostly pictures and few words like most OEM instructions. Be sure to buy some paint/primer to cover the edges of the holes you intend to drill. Once you stop drilling into your truck's cab, it will all go downhill. Here are a few things that stand out to me: The template was right on the edge of the canopy just as it started to curve towards the windshield. If you are measuring against the glass your holes are too close to the cross member support at the front of the cab. Use a 15/64" drill bit for smaller holes. The instructions say 1/4 inch but that was the exact value. the same size as the inserts and felt like they were spinning. - Drill 1/8" pilot holes for all holes even if you think you won't need them. - I used a 7/8" step drill for the first hole and quickly ditched the idea. Took too long and made a ridiculous amount of shavings. I switched to a 7/8" bi-metal hole saw and it was very quick and easy. a small round file for deburring the inside of the truck after drilling - The wiring instructions were written by a color-blind hand, I'm sure .Pin 50 on TIPM - connector C7 G not White/Light Green. It's yellow, incorrect. I just went straight to the headlight assembly and pressed White/Green on the position light (White/Blue is the turn signal in this wire so press that not) - For the headliner I would suggest an extra pair of hands to reinstall. Worked great and passed the water test with flying colors. FYI, I didn't bathe it in silicone during installation. Good quality rubber pad. If you get the right material take a sealant and place a ring of it between the seal and the cab.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Very expensive
