Default Big rig lights

I had mentioned in my other thread looking at some Recon Big Rig Ice lights. I picked up a set used for $60 off of Greg's friend. Got them installed today and have the running lights and turn signals wired up. I still have to hook up the courtesy light wires so they light up clear when I open my doors.

Thanks I got a quick walk around vid and one with the driver side flashing with the turn signal but gonna wait till I get the other wires hooked up to post it. Hopefully I can get that done tomorrow(today). Get some pics of that and video of them working.





I told my one sister I think I need another set so the whole side will be lit ha ha

Wow that looks cool! Never seen lights like that on a Ram. Dude you have the MOST custom lighting on a Ram I have ever seen before! Way to go

Still dicking with it. Tried wiring the door lights to the fuse like the directions say and they stay on all the time. Then I tried the door switch. I got the splice connecters that let you plug and spade into it and hooked it up to the door switch.... didn't work, I realized that the slices wern't cutting into the wire so i said screw it and cut the wire. Well guess what IT DON'T WORK!!

I believe there is a relay after that switch so I guess there's not enough juice to power the lights. I'm pissed that I cut a factory wire and they still don't work.

I'm either gonna have to try and run a relay off that switch wire and power them that way or find the dome light wire in the piller and tap into it
