I have a 2019 Rebel. Cargo kights are great, but I had to take out the brake light. Anytime it was illuminated, the trick would think the fob was no longer in the vehicle. PSA for anyone having that issue.
Did that help make it easier for using the backup camera at night? I just got a used 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie, and the thing is awesome, but the camera for backing up is terrible at night. And how hot do those get? And heat issues?
I have not felt any real heat coming from them. The older style that came in then gave off more heat. I haven’t noticed issues with the backup cam at night so didn’t notice if these helped at all, but I would suspect they do not. Do you have the 12inch screen in your truck? I think the backup cam is actually very good compared to others.

They may have special bulb that won’t cause that issue. Give them a call to make sure you have the correct bulb.
I did. Got a refund. Super great to work with.
What do you think about just using the another white light in the middle since the plastic already has a red tint? Too bright then?
I didn't try it, but theoretically it should work, but then again I always try to make things as close to OEM as possible even with upgrades.
What’s the technology package?
I forget everything that’s included, but if you have the heads up display, you have the technology package.
6 months later, any issues?
No issues at all. Very happy with the lighting.

Yes, I have the 12" screen, and it's nice.
Camera is perfect during daytime, but it just needs more light at night I think.
