Specs:

Reese Towpower has created this Ram LED hitch cover to look like an ordinary Dodge Ram logo in daytime, non-braking situations. When you turn on your vehicle's tail lights or activate the brakes, the cover's unique metallic coating becomes transparent, and bright red LEDs shine through. The long-lasting LED cells have two intensity settings. The red lights use low illumination when your vehicle's tail lights are on and high illumination when you activate your brakes or hazard lights.
Hitch covers are fun to show off and they look cool, but they do more than just accessorize your vehicle. Your Ram light-up hitch cover helps to keep dirt out of the receiver and deters rust, so you can easily install ball mounts and other hitch accessories when you need them. This hitch cover is a great way to protect your receiver and proclaim your loyalty to the renowned Dodge brand, all in one.

Today, were gonna review part number 86066. This is the Reese Dodge Ram LED Brake and Tail Light trailer Hitch Cover to fit 1-1/4 and 2-inch hitch receivers. This is an officially licensed 3D Dodge Ram logo, which will add a stylish touch to your vehicle. It uses red LED lights, which will light up to give your vehicles some flash and make it more visible as well as to alert other drivers to slow down or stop when you do. When plugged in, it has a low illumination, which will be used when youre using your tail lights and then it goes to a higher or brighter illumination when you apply your breaks or engage the hazard lights. It does use energy efficient LEDs, which are long lasting.
This hitch cover does come with a foam gasket, which will help protect your vehicles hitch receiver from water and dirt. Im going to give you a few dimensions on it. The overall width on this would be 4-3/4 inches. The height is 5-1/4 inches. This does come with a 90-day warranty.
It is made of a corrosion-resistant plastic with a metallic coating that becomes transparent when the lights are activated. Now, this part will come with the 1-1/4-inch adapter that would bolt on and a gasket to be used with that. It also comes with the 2-inch, which I have already attached to the hitch cover and the gasket for that and the mounting hardware is included. This is a simple installation. Once this is attached to your hitch cover, whichever adapter size you need, you would just then put your foam gasket on.
I got a 2-inch hitch receiver here. Slide it in until the hole would line up. Now, it does use a pin and clip or a hitch lock, which is sold separately. You just slide it in, line it up, put your pin through, and then you can plug it in. I have a power supply here, a 4-way, that Im going to plug in to give you an idea of the brightness on this hitch cover.
Okay, with that plugged in, that would be with the tail lights on, and then when you apply the brakes or the hazard lights, it would light up even more. Now, I want to give you an idea of what it would be with the overhead lights off, to give you an idea at nighttime. That would be just with the tail lights on and then when you apply your brakes or hazard lights it would light up even more. Again, this part comes with a 90-day warranty. That should do it for part number 86066.

love, love, LOVE my new RAM head trailer hitch cover, I wanna show it off where ever I go! I also bought one for my son's 17th Birthday (he has a RAM truck too) and I can't wait to give it to him (in a week). I know he will love his as much as I love mine! :) The ordering was easy, fast shipping and easy to assemble and attach. I'm very pleased with this company and this product.64938

Works as advertised. Order arrived promptly. Had to modify (lengthen) the section that fits in receiver, otherwise hitch cover light hits bumper above before pin can be placed to hold light in receiver.35364

Looks great, however the wire was not long enough to reach from the hitch to the plug...which sits above the bumper on the 2010 Dodge Ram.32104
Yah, I wish I saw this comment before I bought it for my 2013 Laramie. The wire harness is simply too short. I have to use my 4 to 5 pole adapter to make the connection work at all and then there is no room for wire management. Cant recommend it to anyone with a Ram with the factory tow options installed which place the wiring connections by the license plate. If your tow package places your wire connections below the bumper, you will likely not have a problem making the connection. With the all plastic housing though, I do not feel this product justifies a 35 dollar retail price.
comment by: Dave - 2/12/2013
Thank you for the feedback.
Patrick B - 2/15/2013Im agree with Dave,it is really not perfect fit for my Ram too. The wire is too short .I bought this 1 on feb112013.Today I receive this,when installing it find wire is not long enough to reach to adaptor.
comment by: RAJINDERPAL - 2/19/2013
Thanks for the input. We are following up with Reese on this one about extending the length.
Patrick B - 3/21/2013Have they lengthened the cord on this yet? Does it still not reach? I have a 2010 Ram and I really want this but wont buy if it cant reach.
comment by: Drew - 4/2/2013
As far as we know, Reese has not changed the length of the cord. I just spoke with one of my contacts over there and he confirmed that the length has not changed since production started. We have added an extension as a related product that will provide an extra 12 inches of length as a solution. See part 9653P.
