Recommended Tailgate Light Bar For A 2013 Ram 1500
Question:
Please provide some answers or better yet a solution to my problem. I own a 2013 Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn. I really want a tailgate light bar installed on my truck. The problem is that the tailgate umbilical cord controls my tailgate locks, and backup camera will not allow me to install a traditional “60” light bar. Do you have a Solution or a recommendation for me?

Expert Reply:
I'm not quite sure how your camera is blocking you from installing a 60" tailgate light bar, but we do have some solutions from Putco that plug into the back side of the factory 7-way using the Replacement Quick Connect Wiring Harness for Putco Blade or Red Blade Tailgate Lights # P529004.
You could then plug the light bar into the 4-pole connector on one of their light bars (listed below) for a super easy installation.
Separate 18" lights # P57CR (this one comes with the # P529004 adapter)
44" # P92010-44
48" # P92010-48
60" # P92010-60
If there's some other reason why this wouldn't work please let me know and I can try to find a solution.
