Upgrades, well there no single thread, the whole forum is upgrades and issues. Browse around or ask.

Washer fluid - First, check fuse #29. Other than that, check power to the pump, and blow out the lines with compressed air.

Mirrors - Buy new ones and replace them. Simply remove the inner door panels , remove and replace.

Download the 2005 Factory Service Manual (Link below), a lot of information in that manual will pertain to your Dakota.

If you're trying to download the FSM to your phone, good luck. It's 5,249 pages.

I tried on my computer too and it wont let me navigate. Anyone name this part? Also if my condenser for my AC reads already in the red before trying to fill, does that mean I need a new compressor? I had cold air when I first bought it, ac decided to only blow hot air now and I tried to refill but its already in the red.

Sometimes there is sticker on the part or it's emblazened on the plastic with the part number. Or, I've used parts websites with blow-up diagrams to find part numbers with some success in the past. Websites like www.moparpartsoverstock.com or www.moparpartsgiant.com. The hard part can be guessing what group or category would include the part.

Thank you, seriously im planning on completly upgrading everything in this. I want to do LEDs, grille guard, upgraded rotor and brakes, radio, thinking about katskinz leather seats quite a few things I've seen on here so far. Infact my driver side rotor looks worse and I can't find the post that was made about which to get again

See the attachment. I've been considering several upgrades along the way...some more functional than others. The attachment compiles some threads that might be useful to you.

Edit: updated the attachment to capture the full document.

Note: not all of the links survived the PDF-conversion process. Best to copy-and-paste the full web address into your browser.
