Amber & White Hood Vent Lights for Challenger, Charger, Redeye Charger, Durango & Ram
Some upgrades change the whole character of your build without changing its body lines. Merrick Motorsports hood vent lights do exactly that: three LED lights tucked behind the hood grille, adding a distinctive illuminated detail while keeping the installation visually integrated with the hood.
Available in amber and white LED, our Stock TRX Style hood grille clearance lights give select Challenger, Charger, Redeye Charger, Durango and Ram builds two different ways to stand out. Here is a closer look at both, using actual photos from our product listings.
A Small Detail with a Big Visual Impact
The design puts three sealed LED lights behind the grille rather than mounting a separate light bar across the front of the vehicle. That positioning is the appeal: a stealthier appearance when the lights are off, and a recognizable three-light signature when they are on.
For the compatible factory hood and grille applications described in the listings, the light-equipped grille replaces the original grille. This is a hood-specific upgrade, not a universal part that fits every vehicle wearing the same badge.
The lights sit behind the hood grille, preserving a subtle appearance when switched off.
Amber Hood Vent Lights: A Bold, Warm Accent
If you want the classic amber marker-light aesthetic, this is our pick. The warm color brings a different personality to the front end, particularly on a build that already has amber accents.
Our amber listing specifies three sealed light units, with 15 LEDs in each. The photograph below shows the three illuminated units inside the hood scoop, giving you a real look at their placement and color rather than a rendering.
Our recommendation: choose amber when you want the hood detail to have its own warm, unmistakable identity. It is a styling choice that works especially well when you are building a coordinated front-end theme.
This installed example shows how the hood lights complement an amber-accented front end. Other lighting pictured is not part of the hood grille product.
White LED Hood Vent Lights: A Crisp, Clean Look
Prefer a cooler-looking, white-light accent? Our white LED version takes the same three-light concept in a different visual direction. It is our pick for owners who want the hood lighting to echo a white-light theme elsewhere on the vehicle.
The white listing specifies three light units with 18 LEDs in each. Choose between amber and white based on the look you want, not LED count alone: the listings do not provide a measured brightness comparison between the two versions.

Grille shapes differ by application. Select the version that matches your vehicle and hood.

Find Your Vehicle: Challenger, Charger, Redeye Charger, Durango & Ram
Both color options offer vehicle-specific selections. Match your model year and hood to the selection on the product page before ordering. Installed vehicle photos below come from our product galleries; other accessories and lighting pictured are not included.
Dodge Challenger
For a muscle-car build, the hood scoop is a natural focal point. Our three-light detail adds an illuminated accent without replacing that familiar hood shape. Both listings offer a Challenger 2015–2023 selection. Confirm that your hood and grille match the compatible application, especially if the hood has been changed.
Choose amber for a warm accent like the installed Challenger photos above, or white for a crisp alternative. The listings explain that a widebody is not required for the compatible Hellcat or Widebody hood applications.

Dodge Charger
Give your Charger a distinctive hood-grille detail in either amber or white. Both product pages offer the selection Charger 2015–2023 SRT Scatpack Hellcat GT Hood. Match the actual hood on your vehicle to that application rather than relying on the model badge alone.
If your Charger has an aftermarket hood, contact Merrick Motorsports before ordering so you can confirm the correct grille configuration.

Dodge Redeye Charger
The Redeye Charger has its own selection on both product pages: Charger 2020–2023 Red Eye. Choose that application when it matches your vehicle and hood, rather than assuming the standard Charger selection is interchangeable.
Amber and white are both available through the linked listings, giving Redeye owners the same choice of a warm accent or a clean white-light theme.
Dodge Durango
A performance-inspired SUV deserves attention to the details too. Both listings offer 2012–2026 Durango SRT Style Hood with Center Hood Vent. The SRT-style hood and center vent are key parts of this selection, not optional details.
Choose the grille that matches that hood configuration, then select amber or white to suit the rest of your build. The slim white grille pictured above is identified as a Durango assembly in our product gallery.

Ram 2500
For the Ram application offered in these listings, choose 2023–2026 Dodge Ram 2500 With Sport Hood. The Sport hood is part of the fitment requirement. Do not assume that the product title means every Ram model or hood will fit.
The installed white Ram photo above shows how the three hood lights can become a distinctive part of the truck's front-end appearance. Both amber and white options are offered for the listed Ram 2500 Sport-hood application.

Check Your Hood Before You Order
Your year and model are only part of the fitment check. The hood design and grille matter too, especially if your vehicle has been modified. The listings explain that a widebody is not required for the compatible Hellcat or Widebody hood applications, but that does not make every hood compatible.
Before adding to cart, match your vehicle, model year and hood to the exact selection on the product page. If you have an aftermarket hood or are unsure which grille you have, contact Merrick Motorsports before ordering.
Wiring and Built-to-Order Details
Both product descriptions list an included wiring harness and an add-a-fuse option. The listed wiring choices allow connection to the vehicle lighting or a fuse-box setup that turns the lights on at startup. Follow the supplied installation instructions and choose the correct electrical connection for your vehicle.
These products are listed as pre-order or built to order. At the time of writing, the amber page lists approximately 2–5 weeks for Charger, Challenger and Durango applications, and 4–5 weeks for Ram 2500. The white page lists approximately 2–4 weeks for Charger, Challenger and Durango applications, and 3–4 weeks for Ram 2500. Check the product page for the latest timing before placing your order.
Which Color Should You Choose?
Choose amber for a warm, bold accent and a coordinated amber-themed build. Choose white for a crisp look that complements a white-light theme. Both versions put the signature three-light detail in the hood grille, so the decision comes down to your preferred appearance and the correct fitment for your vehicle.
Whether you are building a Challenger, Charger, Redeye Charger, Durango or the listed Ram 2500 application, start with the right hood selection and make the look your own.
