I have a 2017 express. So my overhead doesn't have any garage door buttons. So my question is can they somehow be added? Thanks in advance

Or you can be sneaky and hide one above your guage cluster.

Make it so its only powered when ignition is on. Keep pesky burglars out of your garage.6b95dba3ef17fb4e6cd819d15f075846.jpg

This guy is too rough to be working on something like this
The plastic parts in the overhead console are somewhat fragile

First thing he should have purchased a Plastic Trim Kit, they are very useful on our Rams interior & under the hood

When he is trying to program the Homelink to work & is having troubles.
You can expect the same thing to happen when you attempt it

Its from a volkswagen.

Just troll a junkyard and find the thinnest homelink you can find in a visor. I think the visor cost me $5.

Be sure to take as much harness as you can. Its only 2 wires + and -. Hook that up to an ignition source
