nano, all yours..I have khaki or whatever they call it

I don't know where the heated switches are mounted stock, but take a look on Ebay, I see switches/dashparts, etc all the time ...Ram ones should work as well.

Switches are mounted in the center console. it takes the place of one of the top 2 slots (can't remember which though)

Ask JKeaton to snap some pics and trace the wires cause I know he has the heated seats too...

Hey thanks man. I know what your sayin about where they are mounted, but I was thinkin (since I like using both slots for stuff) I could mount them where ever I wanted. I actually found the switches for sale (about $25 each) but they dont come with any wiring, thats the only thing I am having trouble finding.

I'll check mine when I get it back next week to see about the wiring if you can wait. It's in the shop and I'm at Disney World....

This is where my heater switches are and how the wires are run.

the wires from the heater switches and aux 12v plug in the console run together into this plug

Hey Snyder, thanks for the pics, answers a few questions I had on how they are wired from the factory. Sorry Nano, been sick the past few days, got your message. Lemme know what you want to do about the seats. If you guys know of anyone parting out a Dakota, Durango or Ram lemme know! Hopefully get the parts I need.

PMd you (and on email). There's a bunch of 3 gen Daks being parted out on ebay (more than I've ever seen)!!

Here are some item numbers, not sure how many have the seat switches and harnesses. 160469186090, 200436160689, 390145920804, 260648935192
