Hello all,
I bought a basic overhead console and am going to install it in my 2013 1500. From what I have gathered here on this site, I will have to run wires from the headliner down the A pillar to the green connector behind the headlight switch. I will have to cut and splice into the black ground wire at position 16, yellow/light blue wire (for constant power to manually turn on the map lights), and the yellow/violet wire (powers when door is opened).
If anyone has done this on a 2013 please let me know if I am correct, if not, please correct me.
I am also thinking of ordering the three wire wiring pigtail that goes to the console. Is this a necessity? Can I just solder the wires to the pin outs on the console itself?
Thanks for any help.
