    First off… great videos and instructions and attention to details. I’m fixing to do the same… if I can correctly get my factory trim off and cleaned up properly. It looks like I have the same lettering. Mine are kind of a matte black in color, I have the tabs on back I have to cut off. Mines got a fully covered adhesive backing but not necessarily 3m. ( don’t know how it will hold up ). My question for you is …. Did yours originally come with an adhesive backing or were they just the plastic ridges I see in your video. Thank you in advance

    When used properly and surfaces properly prepped, that 3m tape will hold! Good video, thanks for sharing!

      Yea, sure! I'm on my 4th set of those F'ing RAM letters on my 2015 Limited. My body shop says he has somebody in there at least once a week with a RAM truck with letters that fell off. He has a FULL BOX of the extra letters he has removed or not needed to install (since they come in sets). It is the DUMBEST thing RAM did on the truck, tape letters that are not flat (they are ribbed with 1/16" wide plastic ribs about every 1" across each letter), and try and make them stick on a truck that sits outdoor in summer sun (100+ degree's), winter (-5 degrees), rain, snow, ice..... just DUMB! There is no "tape" in the world that will hold them on. There are shops on Amazon and Ebay making a good living selling replacement RAM letters to all of us.

    I wonder if using an adhesion promoter on the raptor where the letters go to help it stick?

      Possibly, but I think the tape and Loctite combo did the trick. Still on there strong

    Next time lightly sand the area behind the letters,wipe with alcohol then use gorilla construction adhesive. Wait 5 minutes until it gets a little tacky then apply. Im a 2nd gen dodge ram owner and I use it as well

    Double sided tape and silicone in the center. Thats the best way to do it.
