Not happy with my new gorilla lock black lug nuts. I called gorilla and they advised me to go to my local discount tire that they would have them and out them on. This is what they look like. I'm going to take off and sell and put oem back on powder coated black or buy new black lug nuts.

Post photo of what they look like. It is very possible now that i think about it that Discount tire may have had a older version or put on a set that they made fit because they didn't have the correct ones? Either way those are the ugliest black lug nut nipples I have ever seen.

- Rear bumper reflector to LED MOD

What mod is this?



Looks great, the only difference between the RA3 and RA4 is the navigation and Hd radio?
I'm confused about this... How do I know which radio my Altitude comes with? I got a 2015 with ParkView and Amplified speakers... Does this make it come with the RA4? I don't see anything about this on the order sheet. :confused:

Don't mind some of the mess. I had a couple hay bails in the back for some harvest decorations.

Mopar Rear Backup Kit 82213884AB was received and installed. I removed the unpainted rear brow cover that came in the kit with my rear brow cover off the Altitude (black lettering). I then removed my entire rear applique and re-installed the one from the kit. Next it was to the dealership.

The system did not have the price for installation for the new kits so they used the price for a RAM rear backup camera install $120.00. Well, 5 hours later everything is wired in and it look great. Of course I have the steering control issue so I will be back to the dealership this week and have them take a look at install instruction #46 that other users have said was the culprit.

Here are a couple pics and a video of the dynamic lines when turning the steering wheel:

Hey BlackWK2. I am having a backup camera installed on my 14 Altitude next week but I'm not up to date on the install instruction 46 issue. Did a search and couldn't find it either. Would you mind educating me? Any other pointers you would offer after going through it. Finally, how's the camera working? Happy with it?

Thank you!!

Hey BlckWK2 sorry to bother you but that link takes me too an unrelated thread from 2009? I tried several times. Any ideas? I am the type that has to be super educated about something before I go to a dealership so I am very anxious to see your thread and the video you referenced.

Thanks.
