2012 Ram 2500, has all the buttons on the front of the steering wheel, except no audio controls on the back of the wheel.
It has the exact same setup as my 2011 Ram 1500 that has the audio controls on the back of the wheel.
I am trying to figure out if I can upgrade the steering wheel in the 2500 to include the audio controls on the back of the wheel.
I asked the dealer and they quoted me a price of $2500, told me I would probably need a new wiring harness and radio along with the steering wheel. The guy was being a real pain in the butt and acted like he really wasn't bothered about helping.
My radio is exactly the same is my 2011 1500... and since both of my steering wheels have the exact same buttons on the front... I can't see how it could cost this much just to add a steering wheel with 2 extra buttons. I will purchase the necessary parts if I can just figure out what I need but I first have to figure out if it can be done at all.
Can anyone help please... I pull a trailer with this truck every day all day long, I don't like fiddling with the radio by reaching across the truck.
