Dodge R/T LED Grille Badge: Small, Type 2 or Big?
The Dodge R/T badge family has three separate grille products, and “Type 1 Small,” “Type 2” and “Type 3 Big” are design labels rather than vehicle-fitment promises. The practical choice is the footprint you want to compare with your available grille area. Start with the exact artwork, then check the live product page for its own dimensions and mounting details.
These are product images on a light background. They show the catalog artwork; they do not show a customer installation or confirm that any Dodge grille accepts the part.
Compare the three R/T footprints
The current listings give width × height × overall depth. The depth includes the mounting hardware, so it is not just the visible face:
| Product | Listed dimensions | Useful comparison |
|---|---|---|
| R/T Type 1 Small | 105 × 46 × 52 mm | Shortest width and lowest height in this group |
| R/T Type 2 | 158 × 63 × 52 mm | Mid-width face with more height than Type 1 |
| R/T Type 3 Big | 190 × 73 × 52 mm | Longest and tallest face in this group |
The numbers help you compare the products before you measure a vehicle. They do not tell you that one is correct for a particular R/T trim, year or grille. A product that looks proportionate in a search thumbnail may still need more open face area or rear access than your vehicle provides.
Use the opening shape to narrow the choice
If the only clear area you can measure is narrow, the 105 mm Type 1 Small is the first product record to compare. If the space is wider but you want a taller face, compare Type 2. If you have a long, unobstructed area, Type 3 Big has the largest listed face. These are comparison starting points, not a fitment recommendation. Measure the actual grille opening, note its curve, and check what sits behind it before you select a product.
Use the catalog proportions and the exact dimensions from the listing when you compare the face with the opening. Check clearance for the backing plate, fixing nuts and wiring at the intended location. Nearby sensors, shutters or cooling paths need a separate vehicle-specific assessment.
What is common across the three listings?
- Each listing describes a plastic badge body with steel mounting hardware.
- Each uses two screws, a backing plate and fixing nuts.
- Each product record states IP67 ingress protection and separately warns that wiring connections must be protected during installation.
- Each listing offers White, Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Ice Blue, Purple and FLOW choices, plus 12- or 24-month warranty variants.
FLOW is a product option, not a claim that every image shows animated lighting. The descriptions state that FLOW RGB is controlled from a phone through the LED Hue app over Bluetooth; fixed-color variants use the selected color. Read the selector on the exact product you choose rather than copying a color or price from another R/T page.
A sensible order of decisions
- Compare the three product images and choose the exact R/T artwork.
- Write down the face width and height from that product page.
- Measure the usable grille area and inspect rear access for the 52 mm assembly depth.
- Confirm the current lighting and warranty options on the same listing.
- Ask about your exact vehicle and mounting position if the opening, curve or rear clearance is uncertain.
See the LED Grille Badges collection for other designs. The R/T name identifies the artwork family; only the exact product record and a separate vehicle-specific check can answer the fitment question.
