Hey folks, I'm having a hard time getting my manual seats into a comfortable position. Would really like power leather (preferably heated) seats. Do they make an after market setup to acquire this or do you got to buy Laramie seats?

If you want power your best bet is to find a nice set of leather power seats, that's what everyone here does. There's also a thread in the DIY section if you want info on adding heated/cooled seats to your truck.

Yes off a junked vehicle. Keep your eye's open & just watch. They are getting crazy money for them. Even just fronts yards are asking around $1500 (around me). Full set's can get crazy front & rear for crew cabs. I got my whole set for around $700 shipped to me. I got it in pieces though & it worked out. I was diligent & spent probably 3 months looking. I had kind of given up with the prices they were asking. Finally got lucky & it is absolutely worth every penny. You will still spend a fair amount getting them to all work. Power is easy. GEtting the heat & cooling to work isn't so much. Check out the DIY thread as mentioned above. It walks you through the whole thing

Do they make an OEM power seat that's not leather?
