I removed the tail-light plug today. Did not have the luxury of having read this post first. Finally figured out the orange tab, with the release-lever in the middle (it's small, I used the pin on one of the test-leads on my VOM to push it to one side). Then, after alot of swearing, figured out that the black plastic pieces on the opposite side from the orange tab, were actually another piece that was also locking the plug together. Managed to press that down, and the plug came apart. What a P-I-T-A! What is Dodge expecting? That we're going to spend all our lives driving in Afghanistan, where off-road vibration will shake the truck apart in 40 years?
It reminds me of the fuel tank vent mod, where you have to have seven fingers and two thumbs (on opposite sides) on one hand in order to disconnect the fuel lines and drop the tank. Come on! The electrical and fluid connections are bullet-proof, yet the sheet metal is so thin... my 6" diameter mag-mount CB antenna won't stay put on the roof. So why doesn't Dodge address THAT issue? Give us a good place inside the cab to mount Ham/CB radios and a good place on the outside of the truck to mount an antenna... Hmmmm?
