  • I really wanted some lights for the bed of my 2021 Ram Rebel and after watching a few other light setups on youtube I decided to do something similar to what ‪@WaterFowler41‬ did in his video which you can watch here:
    • Budget Friendly Truck ...
    My DIY truck bed LED light setup is installed on a 2021 Ram Rebel with a WeatherTech AlloyCover tonneau. This worked out really well and it puts out plenty of light. I am really glad I did this project.
    Below are the main items I used in this installation:
    1/4" Split Loom Wire Conduit - amzn.to/3iaxPgA
    12 Volt Waterproof On/Off switch - amzn.to/39GtYmX
    NiLight LED Light Kit - amzn.to/2WfQ38M
    18 Guage Waterproof Butt Splice Connectors - amzn.to/3EZ1Mu4

      Awesome man! This has been the BEST upgrade I put on this truck so far. Even my wife raves about it when I flip the lights on at night.

      That reminds of an old joke.. How do you know that a dog is really man's best friend? Put your dog and your wife in the trunk of your car. After an hour open the trunk and see which one is happy to see you!

    Your videos are awesome
    How did you find a 2021 Ram Rebel with 360 surround camera’s
    Did you order?
    I want to add 360 to my 2021 Ram Rebel
    Can I get your Vin# to confirm parts needed
    I have heads up and 12” screen
    So I have a loaded Rebel minus the the 360, adaptive cruise, lane assist etc
    With vin I could match parts
    Thanks

      So what you want is what they called the Advanced Safety Group package. That contained the Pedestrian Emergency Brake, Adaptive Cruise Control, Auto High Beam control, Lane Assist, Parking Assist and Surround-View Cameras. I had to drive 500 miles to get what I wanted and I got it right when Ram stopped allowing you to order that package and the Technology Package that had the Heads Up Display. So literally the night I found out that Ram, no longer let you order with those packages I searched auto trader to find one that had that stuff and went the next day and bought it. That is when the huge chip shortages were going on.

      Maybe check your connection to the battery. That is all I can think of if your ground is good.

    How did you snake the wires to the switch?

    • @BooneDownSouth
      @BooneDownSouth  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So if you go to 2:41 in the video, I show you where I run the wires from the switch. Basically goes in that hole and down. The wiring from the driver side also is going down in this same area just different hole. If you jump to 4:46 you will see the view of the red wiring coming down from the switch, which will tie into your other wiring with one going to ground and one going to a hot terminal.
