Hi all! well, i dove in and did my first mod on my brand-new 08 Ram 1500 Hemi. If it wasn't for this forum and all y'all sharing your love and knowledge of these beasts, then I would probably still have a bone stock ride. As it is, I intend to make more mods but not too much yet. Today I did 3 mods: the MDS led (an hour), removed the "Big Horn" badge from the tailgate, and stopped the seatbelt dinger. I mounted my led right to the left of the steering column under the fuel gauge and made sure it worked before I drilled the hole. It worked as advertised right off the bat so thanks to you guys I got it right! I'll try to get pictures of the truck soon. I still want to add a CAI and exhaust also but gotta wait till I get some cash for those. I spent $3.14 on the MDS mod. It comes on at 22mph and if my foot twitches even a little, it'll go out. I twitched it hard once to see what it would do and I think I left about 2000 miles of rubber in about 20 feet. Dammmmmm!!!! My first Hemi....wow! This thing has ballzzzzzz!!!
