I have exhausted my research skills on this and am in need of help. Does anyone know where I can get the factory inverter and dash outlet for my 2013 Express? I don't mind paying the extra loot for a factory part versus an aftermarket unit, I prefer the clean install of the factory unit. I have searched everywhere, including my dealership who looked at me like I had 2 heads.

The dealership isn't able to order the parts you desire?
Go walk around the lot, find a truck with it, get the last 9 of the VIN and then go to the parts department and ask them for it.

Thanks for the link, but I have that saved in my favorites already. Ordered the upper glove box from them. My truck is my mobile office and I drive @ 1000 miles a week and want the factory look as much as possible.

Here's the part number I came up with 68159295AB. The catalog doesn't show a picture so I'm not sure this is the right thing. Has anyone done this install yet, I'm looking to put it in, wondering if there's a harness that needs to be ordered as well. I've had the dash apart and i don't see anything for it to plug into. Wondering if it ties into something already there.

I show two part numbers:
Outlet: 68159295AB
Inverter: 05026486AA

Edit:

You also need: 2399548 (which is the passenger seat harness).

Looks like the inverter goes under the passenger seat:

I ran the VIN for an Express. It looks like the express has all the requisite wiring, except for the passenger seat harness. I posted the part number, but I am not able to find that part online.

You just need to buy the three part numbers I listed above and it should work. You'll also probably have to flash your BCM with sales code "JKV"

Is there a switch to turn it on and off also?

No switch in the 2013. It just works. Really, the BCM controls it, which is why you'll almost certainly need a flash after adding the hardware.

That was the same problem I had when I made the post. The problem is not exclusive to this harness either. I have a few other part numbers for various other projects that I cannot find online.

I imagine that your dealer is probably the best person to help you find the harness.

Yeah I just normally leave the dealer shaking my head so I've gotta build up the energy to go in. Plus the wife an kids keep my plans pretty full...

If you can't find anything at the dealer. I'll look and see what it would take to make my own harness, with the caveat that I do not own an Express and cannot guarantee anything.

I low of one dealer that may be able to help. Call Steve White Motors in Hickory, NC. They sell a lot of parts to add OEM stuff to trucks. They may have already figured this out. If not they are really good about being willing to research it. It may take them a few days.

My dealer in Richmond, VA is having trouble locating the wiring harness also, but if I can provide the last 9 digits of a VIN from a truck that has the factory outlet he thinks he can look it up. Is anyone willing to share their last 9 to help a fellow out? Thanks.
