Hey. Does anyone know if seats on a higher trim ram like a limited or Laramie will fit a bighorn? My driver seat is powered by the passenger isn't. Hoping there would be minimal wiring involved in the swap. TIA

Yes, they are compatible BUT you may be missing wiring harnesses and modules from the factory to provide for certain upgrades like heated/cooled seats. All of your current harnesses should plug right up though.

If you are looking for harnesses to upgrade certain features @Mpgrimm2 of M2Mods can get you squared away.

Thanks for the response. Like you said, I think the driver side should be good as my driver seat is powered and I dont really care for heated and cooling feature. Its the passenger side that I'm a bit more worried about. I didnt see a wiring harness underneath the passenger seating area, maybe it is buried under the carpet?

It might be, but it's the easiest thing to wire on the seat. It's just running 12v power to the seat straight from the battery. @Mpgrimm2 I think makes a harness for that too.

Hello. I have a 2015 Big Horn, it came factory with front heated seats (power driver) and steering wheel, full center console originally. I added a set of heated/vented with memory leather seats (front power drive/passenger and rear) from a Laramie, with no additional wiring. I added the proper switch-bank switch on dash, activated with alpha obd and everything works perfect. I just need to figure out the hook up location of the four wires that are needed for memory to work.

Simply need canbus wiring to the module, IIRC.
