This might be a dumb question but if I wanted to do the heated wheel/seats upgrade, would I have to get new leather seats or could I just get katzkin leather installed?

If you are talking about adding integrated heated wheel and seat functionality with the harnesses @DeereGuy makes, then you will need to get actual Mopar Ram seats that have the factory heated and/or cooled function built in from a higher trim level truck.This might be a dumb question but if I wanted to do the heated wheel/seats upgrade, would I have to get new leather seats or could I just get katzkin leather installed?

Almost done. Hopefully within the next week. Starting to get a build room set up with 2 or 3 workbenches and storage shelves so I can start unpacking all my parts.How is the move going Mike? Hoping to get back to my OH console install when you have time to answer some questions.
I would be happy to make a day trip to Pittsburgh and volunteer as a test mule if desired.I had spent a substantial amount of time looking into this mod, to the point I actually bought the relays I needed to replicate the kit that myoung created. I think I hit a wall where the wiring changed a bit in the later model powerwagons. I wonder if this is why they stopped making the kits. The other problem is I don’t have a power wagon or know anyone that does. So it’s kind of hard for me to develop this without that.

Yes your truck should have all the proper wiring for the heated/vented seats and heated wheelCurrently have the standard cloth seats in my '17 Big Horn Quad Cab. Driver side power, passenger side manual. No heat.
Looking at changing to leather, heated and cooled, memory seats. BOTH sides powered.
Some questions:
Does the ventilation "come along for the ride" when adding heat? I know Ill have to have the sales code(s) added, but will it "just work" even in a Big Horn which never got ventilated seats?
Im not sure what extra stuff (harnesses, modules, etc) would be required. Id be happy to look under my seats and provide pics if that helps, but after reading this thread I dont think I saw someone with a '17 add "upgraded" seats.
Is there truth to the whole BCM "seat type" setting? If so, since the Big Horn was only ever expected to come with cloth seats, is it possible to change that setting to leather/perforated leather? Does that setting actually effect how much juice it sends the seat heaters? Ive seen varying opinions of how well the stock seat heaters work, I wasnt sure if maybe they just had the wrong setting for the seats they had.
Ive seen a whole ton of sets of CREW cab seats, but not many quad cab. Not an electrical question, but, aside from the rear seat bottom, will the crew cab seats fit in a quad cab?
Thats it for now (lol)
Thanks in advance.

The memory function on the seats will not work. Your truck does not have the correct modules or wiring.
Yes there are different settings in the BCM for the different seat materials plus different heated steering wheels. When I first did my conversion my BCM was set to default setting and the heated seats and wheel still worked well even though they most likely or not on the correct setting.
The front seats for the Quad and Crew cabs are the same. The rear seat back on the crew has the available fold out cup holder the Quad does not. The back rear seats would probably interchange but the seat bottom would not fit without modification if it fit at all,and if it was installed it would leave little leg room.
