    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    blurz......you have only a couple of options: 1) Find Laramie seats with heat/cool and getting custom cloth seat covers for them. Keep in mind that the seat covers on the standard seats like you have in your Big Horn do not fit on a Laramie seat. The seat frames are different as well as the...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    Mike....let me preface this by saying "its been awhile", so my memory maybe faulty on this. So..... blurz states his seats are from a 2011? My question is the HSM used for that year seat, is it going to be compatible with the canbus of his 2016? I think there was a change in the canbus either...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    I am not sure that Laramie seats come in cloth, I am pretty sure they do not. There are "Big Horn" seats that do come in cloth but ( as best as I can recall) they are not necessarily heated and cooled. Laramie seats automatically are. In other words Laramie Seats=leather+heat+ventilated...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    blurz.......your have the standard seats in your Ram. The standard seats can come as a bench seat with the center section (third seat) which has a backrest that can fold down or left up as a seat; and the standard seats can also come with a center console as shown in your pic. I had the same...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    I have had NO heated seat module problems. I changed out my stock seats and added in stock Laramie seats. Its been so long since I did all of these mods I probably have forgotten many of the details. If you have the time, maybe search for my posts in this thread (and other threads). I did...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    Its been awhile since I last posted here. Thought I add a little info with the hope it is somewhat helpful. I have a 2017 SLT 2500 regular cab which has the snow plow pkg. From the factory it had NO heated/cooled seats or heated steering wheel since those options were not available in a R/C...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    Thanks for the info. And now after reading your post it refreshed my memory (pun intended) of what happened for me. I first installed the Laramie seats in my SLT but did not have memory yet because I was missing the CANBUS wiring which was the harnesss you made for me. I added the wiring at...

    How To Add Heated/Ventelated seats and Heated Wheel to Express/Tradesman

    Hey Mike.....for the Memory Seats I had to add the Memory Mirrors (besides adding the wiring harness you made for me). I know it has been awhile, but IIRC, you need the specific memory mirrors for the memory seats to work? What is a bummer is that my truck already had power adjustable, power...

    Daytime running lights

    Well I am confused. He said he had Quad lights. I took that to mean he had the stock quad lights, the same as I have and which is why I posted what I did. The headights in your post are not stock and of course extra wiring is needed. I thought he was going to use the stock quads.
