Just picked up an 08 1500 slt 4.7l. I don’t know a whole lot about the interiors of these trucks so sorry ahead of time for any stupid questions. So the interior is the basic gray cloth I believe seats, back is the fold up bench with storage under it. Front is the bench that has no console in the middle so you can seat 3 im the front including the driver. So who knows if it’s possible, recommendations on leather or not, console or not, if power/heated seats are an option, and what year or model seats I should be looking for? I know that’s a lot, but thanks for any help you guys can give me!

If you want a straight bolt in, look for 06-08 seats. 4th gen (09-19) seats will physically bolt in but then you have to sort the wiring. A real score for you if you could find them would be 2006 SRT Ram seats, but they are rare since that was the only year for those particular seats:

Now the older 3rd gens (02-05) look different inside than the later ones, but this is what 4th gen seats and console w/floor shift look like in one:

Better than even chance there is a hot lead to the driver's seat, you just may need to put a circuit breaker in the fuse box to complete the circuit.

I wonder who dreamed up the black and "puke" gray combo? and worse who signed off on the puke color for final approval when these trucks were designed?
I would like to either paint/vinyl dye the puke colored portions of my interior or swap them out to something else, if it could be found?
this on a 12 1500 reg cab long bed.
