I miss that truck. It offroaded like a Jeep. I sold it to a friend to keep in the circle but he passed a few years later. I am not sure where it is now. :(

So all of my lighting, plus the valve for my extra fuel tank, are controlled with a SwitchPros. $450ish
Stock crap Ram headlights,
30" Rough Country Black Series bar on the front bumper - $200 LINK
Baja Designs S2 Pros Hood mounted Combo pattern - $340 LINK
Aux Beam Side Shooter Pods (2 Pair) mounted on the sides of the rack, used rivnuts in the rack to bolt lights to it. - $30 a set LINK These throw better light then the rigids below,
Rigid Radience (Amber back lit) mounted on rear of rack. I also have the amber back lit wired to my parking lights. Looks cool. I think i paid $110 - LINK
This was a several month project of seeing a need in the field and filling it.
The SwitchPros is great! It installs super clean.

Thank you. You have quite a bit invested in lighting but it does a really good job it looks like.

I feel that in most cases you get what you pay for. I have several cheap pods that are complete crap. One exception to this is the AuxBeams. I am very impressed with them.
The problem I have found is that there are very few real world images of the lights in use. I even emailed Rigid and Baja Designs for pictures, they had none. Was very disappointed.

Yes they do! I have them travel from the front bumper with my storage boxes as a ramp then use a carpet stair runner to keep their nails from scratching and sliding on the paint. I attached an image below to better show it.

Some nice Rams here. I have to get a few posts under my belt before I can share a pic of my stock, one month old 2019 Power Wagon. New to Overlanding, but looking to set my truck up cost effectively.

Nice we use a ramp, I should’ve thought about the storage boxes before. They’re already used to the ramp I wouldn’t want to switch it up on them now. Also we use a couple cheap padded yoga mats to keep their nails off the paint.
