Alpha Rex Luxx 3rd Gen Ram Headlight Review

[@JustDiesels]

The fact that you aren’t the largest KZbinr in this space is baffling. Your time in the sun is coming, and the effort you put into these videos is unmatched.

[@JustDiesels]

Thank you for supporting!

Being 68 years old, my eyes are not as good as years ago. I need more light. My '03 had aftermarket stock replacements when I bought it, horrible, scattered the light everywhere. I bought OEM Damiler lights new old stock and installed them, much better, but still lacking. Even my old '91 Ranger has better lights! The price difference between the Luxx and the Nova lights is so much that its hard for me to justify the Nova. And I want good light, but don't want to be blinding anyone either!!! Trying to juggle money being retired and planning travel trailer trips, I want good lights, etc. I did "brake down" and install a PacBrake system👍 Thanks for your good reviews, they really help.

[@svridr2k]

Perfect timing! I am looking at these for my 06! Great video as usual.

[@veryangrydodo2376]

Did u get them? If u did how are they keeping up I’m looking at some for my 05

[@svridr2k]

@@veryangrydodo2376 I did not. Just couldn't justify the cost at the present time.

[@veryangrydodo2376]

@@svridr2k got it thank you for responding brotha! Have a good day

[@tjadventures]

These look awesome, i love how they look like some new OEM lights making your truck look like a new one. Also, they seem to have a really good cutoff which is great for oncoming traffic. Thank you for the review!

[@davidanderson8469]

What amazing headlights! The turn signal feature really catches the attention of oncoming drivers.

[@MeMo-tb9vo]

Any recommendations for 08 ram tail lights would love to see it next love the content you got a new subscriber

[@omegamonkey5080]

More Jetta TDI content pls 🙏 great videos man

[@russfoust8718]

Love mine, changed the game

[@danielcastillo355]

Can you do another review like this one but with the Alpha Rex Luxx Chrome lights, I want to see how the daytime running lights will look like when the headlight is chrome. Thank you!

[@coldnnh6983]

Maybe next Christmas….

[@nickpaulish5792]

Any update on the cab over america cab lights?

[@maxwelliverson1842]

I’ve got a ‘97 12V. Can you do a video on the best headlights for a second gen?

[@danieleustache9546]

Love your videos. Curious do you have any laws for headlight height where you’re from. Or rules for mud flaps or having to have fender flares if the offset of the tires sticks out past the body. I’m from Canada bc. My third gen has 37 with 6 inch lift the height is fine I believe I just need to get fender flares and mud flaps. You should do a video on laws in your area if there is any.

[@808Cummins]

I just bought the Luxx for my 3rd gen ram 2500. As Just Diesels said it is a good value for the money. It is not super bright. It is about on par as a newer gen ram. The highs are laughable. Stock headlamp high beams with led are maybe twice as bright. The lows are adequate. My 4th gen with Led's correctly orientated and aimed below the trunk of a car 25ft in front of me... are brighter. I have drove straight on with my wife driving the ram and there is no scatter or blinding factors...But again mine are aimed really low. Just looked at my 4th gen and there's condensation in the driver's side. I guess i have to save up for the Nova now LOL>

[@LAVODKA12]

Post more videos please i love your videos

[@Yeti0044]

just picked some up from CJC

[@oldrango883]

I got the Alpharex Luxx for my truck and only the center two lights work.

[@BobC-d9d]

My 2004.5 has a burnt out lamp detection system. Will these work with that (not give errors or lamp out indication), and will it sense if I have a headlight out? Thanks for the great videos!

[@leeperfarms5723]

don't forget your cab lights

[@ibrahimalmotawa967]

Hey Andrew, am confused between Morimoto XB HYBRID vs AlphaRex luxx which should I order? Kindest

[@Captain-Awesome]

Do you have a video on tail lights?

[@Aaron.svt99]

Kinda of question regarding the video at hand...but is a 7.3l with 240,000 city miles a good deal for 14k?

[@maxwelliverson1842]

What are considered the best second gen headlights? Maybe a video on them?

[@JustDiesels]

I’ll wait until Alpha Rex releases theirs since right now there’s really nothing good!

[@Muffin192213]

Your not running the cab lights anymore?

[@trucking4racecars]

Man I gave an 04 2500 I’m not sure if these would work I thought I had a 3rd gen?

[@JustDiesels]

Here’s the version for your truck: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/02-05-ram-headlights

[@jacoblarsen8457]

I just picked up a set from CJC offroad because of your video! Are the halogen bulbs in the luxx able to be upgraded to Led?

[@JustDiesels]

The LUXX uses a built in LED chip! It’s the Pro series that are designed for halogen bulbs. I didn’t include those in this review.

[@supreme_casual5255]

I just installed the luxx in my 06 5.9, curious if your lights cut out when switching from brights back to normal? Then if you switch three times the lights wont go back to normal until truck is turned off. Any info is appreciated! Love the truck man!

[@JustDiesels]

Mine did not do that, but these trucks are super picky. You might need to call Alpha Rex to see what they recommend. For example, I had to run an anti flicker box with the Morimotos in my test, but not with Alpha rex lights. My buddy’s truck didn’t need them and he has an 06 too. Gotta love Chrysler electronics!

[@Premier1991]

Lots of new vehicles don’t have orange reflectors from factory though, how are they able to do that if an orange reflector is required 🤔

[@JustDiesels]

They must have them somewhere on the front of the vehicle in the US so if they aren’t on the light, they’re on the bumper or fender.

[@Tony-tk4ht]

Have you personally had any issues with condensation in the headlight? ive read reviews but not sure

[@JustDiesels]

Nope!

[@Tony-tk4ht]

@@JustDiesels cool thanks

[@dawsonreynolds6354]

That’s a price I’d expect for headlights on a Porsche. Going to do your second gen? Looking to upgrade my lights on mine.

[@JustDiesels]

Probably not since I like the classic look on that. I’ll likely just swap to factory sport headlights on the 2nd gen.

[@nicholasmartin4684]

Have you had a problem with losing the low beam after using the high beam? Alpha had me disconnect the two (they’ve known about this) and now I have no low beam when using high beams, is it just me with this problem? 2006 ram dually

[@florianbranz893]

Have you solved this problem? My 2006 Ram HD has the same issue!!!

[@Bama87GN]

I have tried a couple of different led bulbs with resistors but they always flicker. I have a 07 2500. Have you heard of any flickering issues with these? It might just be my trucks computer.

[@JustDiesels]

Nope! You’re just not using the right LEDs. You need to get canbus friendly ones

[@kurtdrywall1034]

Do you have to take the assembly out to adjust the headlight?

[@JustDiesels]

Yep! I found that to be the easiest way.

[@truebreed89]

Does the pro-series have the start-up sequence....?

[@errlrigson1563]

Are these the black or the alpha black?

[@JustDiesels]

These are Alpha black.

[@danieljurisic1718]

What kind of taillights are you running?

[@JustDiesels]

Stocks for now.

[@MultiAriel66]

Did you have to adjust them ?

[@JustDiesels]

They were actually pretty dang close out of the box, but yeah I did fine tune the height for my truck. Any headlight you buy will need to be adjusted for your truck.

[@macmcfarland5444]

I recently picked these up for my 09 ram 2500, what is the best fuze to run them to???

[@JustDiesels]

They’re plug and play!

[@macmcfarland5444]

@Just Diesels yeah, what about the running lights, with the extra harness? I've got it wired into a transmission Fuze right now but not sure if there's a certain or best one to wire it into?

[@JustDiesels]

Give Alpha Rex a call just to double check for your year.

[@macmcfarland5444]

@Just Diesels will do, thank for the info love your 3rd gens and videos, keep it up!!

[@jasongriffin1127]

Same for an 05?

[@JustDiesels]

Yep! Same LED chips and projectors, just in a different housing: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/02-05-ram-headlights

You guys still making content?
