Help. I am doing mine as we speak, the lower until under the center stack, the cig lighter had a clip easy, but the USB on the left looks straight wired and there is no play to unsnap it, do you recall how you undid it?


I cut wire. There were two I used one that was plug and play with one on console bezel. First I cut a spare power cord I had laying around and splice one end to end to wire and the other end to usb plug. Make sure you leave enough wire on both ends when you remove, so you can police. The plug and must be unplugged from back of usb. Then cut leaving 1" of spare wire. Then splice wire (power cord in my case ) to extend 12". Then plug into the bezel console. The other cords for usb/aux inside console armrest come from under seat. Hopefully that helps...

Remember there are only two wires. As long as you match colors you will have no issue

This is the side it's very tight and I don't see a disconnect


You can just unplug that one. If you push hard ( toward you )enough it will just slide out plastic piece, then you can easily unplug . On the other side (left side just down from where your steering wheel is or just below where the gear *** spot would be if bezel plugged in ) is also a plug. That one will be plug and play with console bezel. You need to splice wires so the plug can be reused with the new console bezel. Just make sure you leave enough room to make splice when you cut. Leave an inch and you will be fine.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1457737912.111370.jpg

I just messaged you my number. Give me a shout. I abandoned the right side and used left side. The left side was plug and play with my console bezel (USb inside stray) then the other wires I used came from under seat. Those were used for inside armrest. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1457738297.416959.jpg
I did not use this one

For now leave it hanging an u can just tuck up as you won't use. Get the plug from other side and leave enough room for splice. Then test fit it under console bezel. If it fits (which mine did) you just splice and go from there. Almost there.

2014. And they said $75 for bezel. Way she explained on phone sounds like console is the correct one (not jump seat) but not positive about bezel. I will find out next week when I go to pick up. Wish I could have gotten today but they said they were too busy too.

Awesome, thanks.

What about the bezel? dash bezel? I'm assuming I'll need to get a pick to verify it's what I need.

I know it's a little late but on the USB connector in the dash. The cable runs up behind the upper glove box. Just remove the upper glove box and to the left in the dash reinforcement bar there is where the USB cable hooks up with the truck harness

Guys here's some seats with console if anyone looking. This is decent price

https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/131749596442

09-14 Dodge ram Sport black cloth and leather seats heated with console oem

eBay has big fees, if you go to his facebook or need his number text me as I believe they are less on FaceBook.

The reason I am having Katskin (Spelling) done is I can get it done for about half the price and they do all the work. I don't mind taking out my seats and such but they aren't really worth much and again more work. The electric seats would be nice but not at that price and the seat heaters and such aren't pre wired and I can't recall reading anywhere that someone got them to work so again for me I can save money, less work and order exactly what I want.

Found this link today. Doesn't have 8.4 but that's easy to swap out if you have already .plus you could sell ra2 to buy new console bezel with slider [emoji106][emoji106]
