Questions & Answers
I didn't get the head with the illuminated eyes because I didn't want to spend the extra money. However, I'm sure you could connect them to a switch or even tie them into your running lights. That way, they'd turn on as soon as you switched on the lights. If you're looking for a replacement for a Dodge vehicle, I wouldn't recommend it. I bought one, and the fit is incorrect; you'll have to do a lot of modifying to make it work.
That's how simple it is, according to my mechanic. I'm not sure about the lights, but I'll drill two holes.
Connect the ground wire to the body and the power wire to the marker lights' 12 volt side.
My truck is always waxed and polished, and it still looks brand new! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A RAM, BUY ONE NOW! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
Selected User Reviews For GG Grand General 48051 Chrome Ram's Head Hood Ornament, Grey
These aren't meant to be used in place of Dodge trucks. The holes and the studs do not match up. I'm not sure why you'd make a duplicate that doesn't match the original.
This ram is beautifully crafted. On my truck, it's a real standout. A gasket is required for the ram. Rust will occur if a metal hood ornament is placed directly on a steel hood.
Rams head that is heavy, well-made, and brightly chromed. I had it professionally installed, and he created a thin gasket between the Ram and the hood of the truck.
Because my original rams head was stolen from my truck, I decided to order this as a replacement. It's a one-piece design with a high-gloss chrome finish. The original was made up of two pieces and had a low-gloss, pueter-like finish. Because the mounting holes don't quite match, the original will need to be refilled and re-installed. drilling. Once installed, the overall appearance is pleasing, but it differs from the original in a few ways. I'm happy with the replacement, but it would make me even happier if people would just leave my truck alone!.
It worked in a pinch, but it's not a true replacement; it's smaller than the original, and you have to drill new holes that don't completely cover existing ones. I also had an issue with the studs wanting to unscrew; they don't appear to be strong enough to really tighten it down like they should. It's just a step up from a low-cost knockoff.
Great product with excellent value for money. Before you buy a hood latch, make sure it will fit in your hood. Because my Ram is a 2015, the hood latch is exactly where I want the ornament to be. Also, get a long drill bit. On some models, the included hardware is insufficient to ensure a good fit. To get up from underneath, I needed to go to an auto parts store and buy some flat head bolts. None of this is the fault of the product or the manufacturer; it is a fantastic part that is well-made and appears to be original. In my opinion, it is still worth 5 stars.
I was skeptical of the reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality when it arrived. We're using this to replace the OEM ram's head on my wife's 1983 Ramcharger because we don't want to black out the original. It's all set to go with this one. The next step is installation.
