Ram 1500 Map Light Led Mod

[@red6423]

Does this have a fuse? If so do you know which fuse it is?

[@markpazo5217]

How did you get it to shine red?

[@edcgearpocketknife]

If you replaced to the white led salvana bulbs will it be briter than the factory white

[@Rep361Texas]

I would say its highly likely if you were to use a white one, colors come at the cost of lumens, but the red one used in this video was putting off the same as the factory bulb. White would definitely have been brighter.

[@casmirgarfield4072]

Have you done the under dash lights

[@michaelalva6492]

The holder for the led (plastic piece you drilled out) do you have a part number for dealer parts? Wanted to get another one to surgery on.

[@Rep361Texas]

Man I really don't know off the top of my head and it is a hard part to reference online but I do know I went in to the dealer and asked what a replacement cost. I Wana say it was under 20$ that's why I said "screw it I'll take the risk in drilling my factory one." Dealerships will know the precise part # for sure.

[@michaelalva6492]

Thanks brother. I’ll see if I can get one. If I do I’ll update you.

[@Rep361Texas]

@@michaelalva6492 Sweet!! Lmk if you have any further questions.

[@mcdand0410]

@@Rep361Texas I've called two different dealerships and both parts departments can't find this bulb. Mine is flickering and I saw your hack, but I just want the original bulb. Do you or one of your subscribers have the part number. Hell, using my VIN, they said I didn't have a light up there. That's what I'm dealing with. PLEASE

[@Logan-ix8vh]

While you’re there you should change out those mellow yellow lights to the LED lights from lasfit they are amazing

[@Rep361Texas]

I think the only lights that arn't LED are inside the sun visors, but i would love to go back through and get all the lights to match because some arn't the same hue and some flicker at times.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

Another option is painting the exterior of the light with modelers tamiya red clear acrylic paint. It's commonly used with LEDs. Thanks for the mod idea.

[@Rep361Texas]

I had done mine prior, it definitely gets the color you want to see, but the brightness wasn't there, that's when I opted to do surgery! Lol

[@TheDeal187]

Can you show how to replace the yellow dome light I have been trying with no luck

[@Rep361Texas]

The one in the back?

It’s called ambient light. Sweet video

[@Rep361Texas]

Thanks!!

[@lornesam2]

I hate that light in my cab. I just covered it with black electrical tape

[@davidsilver2047]

I have a 2019 classic and I have that light too. What triggers that light to come on? It seems to go on and off at random when I'm driving.

[@Rep361Texas]

I'm unsure mine is a 17 and it stays on as long as the panel lights are lit.

[@davidsilver2047]

Thanks for your reply. I'm thinking about just covering it up lol. Gets annoying flashing on and off as I drive.

[@Rep361Texas]

@@davidsilver2047 Sorry I didn't have a better answer, but that is dumb, it almost sounds like a distraction. Hope you find a solution to be able to keep it.

[@menlomenlo851]

Sounds like a loose connection.

[@davidsilver2047]

@@menlomenlo851 when I get a chance I will check it out. Just seems weird that it only works sometimes. At first I thought it had to do with a sensor or something.

[@Burgher1605]

My led light went out. Is there a way to order only the led or do I have to buy the entire assembly?

[@Rep361Texas]

You can order just the bulb, just get with your local dealership they will get you the right part, there not expensive at all.

[@Burgher1605]

@@Rep361Texas thanks for the direction. I’ll give them a call and get a price on that little led light that shines down onto the center area. Won’t surprise me if they say some shit like $50 though haha.

[@Rep361Texas]

@@Burgher1605 Haha yeah I thought the same when I had asked, but if I'm not mistaken they're like $20 at my local dealership.

You can use up resin no mess drys in seconds with us light. Bought the us light jewel maker just to get the stuff. Light and resin. Can order Separate lol

Sweet info! I could think of many uses for a setup like that.

[@robertdevaul1298]

I did this mod and the light only comes on when I turn the switch on to turn all interior light on it dosnt stay on all time like normal Amy suggestions

[@Rep361Texas]

What year make and model is your vehicle?

[@menlomenlo851]

I feel like this job could have been done easier. I would have removed the whole panel (the black part and the grey part around it). They come off as a whole piece. Once you unplug everything, you can take it anywhere and do your work.

[@Rep361Texas]

😲😲😲 I'll be 100% honest... I expecting it should come off that way but was scared to break it.

Great video I want to upgrade my 2020 ram that currently has incandescent lighting but I don’t see myself rebuilding any lightbulbs!😷😜

[@rottiejakeluke]

Would liked to have seen you installing it without the panel you removed for easy access. I enjoyed the video, but some of the camera movement was too quick and while you were talking talking microphone was fading and then loud then fading etc. thanks

[@Rep361Texas]

Appreciate the solid honest feedback! It was definitely not the optimal conditions for a how to hopefully the ones coming will improve, I know im definitely trying to give better descriptions and have better angles for the video.

I always called that the blunt light. For passing blunts to my lady in the dark lol

[@Rep361Texas]

🤣🤣🤣

[@prestoisakilla813]

you couldve achieved that same effect by taking the bulb out and using a red sharpie marker on it. or putting red translucent tape over it....

[@Rep361Texas]

Its similar but not the same, I tried both ways first, one had an off red tint and both killed the brightness of the bulb thats why swapping it for a colored led with more lumens is worth it to me.

[@prestoisakilla813]
