In this video Sebastian demonstrates how he installed a 12v front hood L.E.D strip light made by SilverHolder on his brand new Ram 1500 Bighorn Hemi V8 5.7L. This is a very easy installation you can add to any vehicle.

Damet Garm amo! was browsing and came across your page! awesome job and it looks great.
Exactly the video i needed thank you.
Happy to hear mate and you’re welcome
Thank you for the info sir! I subscribed because you made this easy and have the same truck I do lol! Next show me how to change out all the interior lights for brighter LEDs 🙏🏻
The wife doesn't sound too enthused haha
She’s really hard to please lol 😂
That's more then half our wives with our toys😂
Thank you for this helpful video.
Hello Chef! Awesome tutorial! I bought the same thing for my RAM 1500 Bighorn and will installing by following your video, so THANK YOU!. One question....are those aftermarket LED headlights on your RAM? If so, where did you buy them?
Yes they are aftermarket LED. But I had a shop do it for me. And you’re welcome. Let me know if you need help with anything else
I am looking at similar headlights on Amazon currently. I have a silver 2020 BigHorn. Changed the current low beam and fog lights to ice blue and looks pretty sick with factory headlight assembly. Can’t wait to see it with this LED hood strip.
What do you do the red 3M on the top side? I imagine you will still see that when the hood is closed.
I cannot get the fuse tap to fit into the fuse slot, they are all too wide/thick. Ideas? Great video too!
Well on my 4th gen Ram I needed to buy micro fuse tap I assume it would be the same on the 5th gen.
Micro Fuse Taps
Wouldn't you need a 20 amp as the original is 20 amp? Each fuse is a different circuit
My lights we will be arriving today. My question is are you having any trouble with your tailgate camera, since you are using the fuse tap? PLEASE RESPOND...
I want to turn it on when I unlock the door ( head lights turn on for 30 sec ) but , Idk if there is a few for that , So I want to turn on unlocking doors and when truck runs ... I can't find the fuse for headlights !! good video
I heard for some of these LED, you can hook the livewire to the Headlight so it only comes on when the drls/lights activate & wont drain the battery. I dont see anyone doing any videos on that though.
The way it's currently hooked up it won't drain the battery either
@@vfr800fi07 I've got mine on the fuel pump circuit, so basically only on with the engine. its only a few watts of draw anyways, would take many hours to drain a battery with an LED strip like this.
@@xFourTwenty117 oh tho only reason I suggested something other than fuel pump is if it blew the fuel.pump circuit you could be stranded
Nice video but warning he used wrong fuse F43 thats for mgu coolant pump and used wrong fuse for that. The trailer camera is right above that F44 and has a 10 amp fuse. Suggest to use that 1
Thank you for that. That was my screwup
Thanks for clearing that up.
Where do you find F44 it doesn’t say that on the fuses and the cover is So confusing.
I did all same things as what you did. But left side is not working?
Did you or anyone have any issues with the hood closing ? My hood will not shut due to the rubber garment. Any suggestions?
I have the same problem, I'm thinking about removing the rubber gasket.
Can you do one with the turn signals?
I tapped my wire to the 5A that powers the Illumination to the window switches. Only turns on when the truck turns on.
I noticed your sorrounding linear light on top and bottom of your headlight are as bight as the headlight its self; did you any upgrades or is there a setting make them birght like yours - mine are very dim like almost off. I have a 2022 Leramie
You can upgrade your headlights. If you Google it in sure you can find sites that sell the aftermarket options
Why the two 10 fuses? Why not a single 20?
Should be the original 20 and a 10
Ok. Ty.
does it matter which fuse you piggy back as
long as it is one that only works when the car is on?
I would do it on a low priority fuse... the rear camera circuit won't leave you stranded if a fuse blew
@@vfr800fi07 How do you know were the rear camera fuse is. I cant find it on the cover of the fuse box. driving me crazy please help. TY
@@26steiger look for F44
Have you had any issues with the strip? Ill be installing mine this weekend
Mine already messed up, Chinese made 🙄
Hello my brother . I want to ask if there is another fuse to connect with the led wire . So we can open or turn it off (the led ) with headlight switch . Now there is no way to turn off the led During the morning, it's open when ever you started the RAM
You need to find the fuse for the headlight and use a fuse tap to connect the LED.
hi i installed mine in the same fuse location and my truck's remote starter has stopped working. any suggestions?
If your looking at the fuse box from the front of truck connect it to the 25 Amp fuse at the top right corner where ther is another yellow fuse beside it. Hope it helps.
Did you ever find the fix for it? Same issue here…
Can you see the white during the day against the gray of the thruck?
O, yes
I looked at how my hood closes with the rubber strip and I don't see how there is enough room for this LED and the rubber strip...I would love to get this because it really does look sharp. I'm just afraid that the hood won't close properly.
Is it a Ram? If it is, you can put the led in between the hood and hood rubber seal. But then you would need to run the wire through the hood
I just tried installing on my '23 Laramie and it won't close. Weatherstripping is preventing it. Back to drawing board.
@@TopCorns336did you happen to find a solution?
@@deocnx1 after I returned the lighting strip I was having issues with the hood closing still. Ended up having the latch adjusted at the dealer. Haven't bought the lighting again, not sure if it was my latch causing problems before or after I tried installing it. Sorry, wish I was more help.
@@TopCorns336 hmmm. Ok, well I appreciate the response. Thanks
With fuse you connect
On my Ram there is a rubber gasket on the hood edge. If you add the light strip does it interfere with the hood closing and do you have to adjust the hood latch?
The light strip is about an 1/8 of an inch maybe more, thick. I would assume it would interfere with the hood closing. Maybe on the hood itself?
I have a 2019 limited and my hood would not close. I tried to adjust the hood adjustments and still couldn’t get the hood to close! Sucks
Same issue here. Did you happen to find a solution ?
is the dynamic or running led strip road legal in alberta, canada?
I’m not sure. I’d check
@@thenomadiquechef4690 i bought one with a purple-ish l.e.d. lamps and it does a "running" or scanning sequence that runs from the middle and goes outwards on either sides.
@@allanroytabunan2015 Not to sure about Alberta I know here in Ontario the only colour you're allowed is white or amber anything else you'll get pulled over.
Theres a reason they call it a HOOD led strip light. Place it on the hood instead of grill cause what happens when u have to remove the grill or headlights???? Strip will have to come up as well.
The strip has the adhesive compound on both sides, so if one side has been used and need to remove, just remove the adhesive tape on the other side and install it back :-)
That’s why i didn’t remove the red tape on the top side just in case
Which size did you get?
1.8 Meter
I think you have the fuse setup incorrect. 2 fuses at 10amps each is not the same as 1 fuse at 20amp. Even if the fuses were setup in series this will not work. the metal on these fuses can only tolerate a 10 amp surge anything higher it will burn the lower value fuse.
So instead of 2 10 amp we use 2 20 amp fuses?
@@platinum9898 what ever the rated value the device requires is what needs installing. If a motor says 20amps, you will need a 20amp breaker.
@@cameranmanner4701 copy, well he did put the correct fuses based on the slot used, just mistakenly said 20 amp when the trailer cameras are indeed 10 amp.
How many inches is the strip light ?
Noticed there’s different sizes ? I also have a ram limited 2023.
70” fits perfect
Will it work on a 2020 limited?
uh why wouldn't it unless you wanted people to know you have a limited very dumb question
We’re do you find f44
What year is yours?
2019 big horn
@@26steiger try F43 it doesn’t have to be the rear view camera circuit. It can be anything that turns on when the engine is started.
2019 big horn
F44 on my ram is a spare..
I thinks it’s to dangerous to install it for someone who has no experience
Also where did you get the battery coat from?
Aftermarket, you can buy them online just google 12V Battery coat
