Just got the call back from the parts department and they said its only listed as a part for the Challenger or Charger. However, one of their techs did a steering wheel replacement on a 2012 "D" and said the picture of the center of this steering wheel appears eerily similar to that of the Durango.
At this point I'm going to elect to hold out until Steve White motors gets back to me on their supposed "test project" and see what they say. I've a sneaking suspicion the part is the same but taking the time to have it mounted by a dealer is something I simply won't have until the end of the month. If anyone else travels the path less taken on this, please keep us informed on whether or not the figment is compatible.
Again, dope find CMil!

Loo, I know but I didn't want your first name blasted on the forums...some people are wary about that sort of thing. I'm Toby, it's a pleasure <shaking hands emoticon>, haha!

lol amen bro...
Totally agreed, I can't wait to hear back and see if the fit is compatible, and the discount they're going to offer forum members for the "free" advertising!
Check out this huge steamy pile of crap-filled response from Chrysler on my request to verify this part's compatibility with a 3rd Gen "D"....
Dear :Toby
Thank you for contacting the Chrysler Customer Assistance Center.
Chrysler does not recommend modifying or altering any vehicle from the
original manufacturer's specifications; therefore, we are unable to
assist this customer with their request.
Thanks again for your email.

Needless to say, I was/am livid. My request for information had absolutely NOTHING to do with a modification or alteration to my vehicle outside the scope of replacement with a genuine OEM Mopar part. They did nothing to answer my question and I feel as if I was just pushed off to the side like someone that isn't important. An automotive manufacturer that was a hair's breadth away from bankruptcy only to be bailed out by my tax dollars should take a bit more time to perform some research on my question and answer my query in a way that is indicative of an organization that gives a flying ***bleep*** about a customer that dropped a significant chunk of income on one of their products. I sincerely hope that some representative from Chrsyler/Dodge/Jeep/whatever is reading this thread and can do something to squelch my obvious frustrations over this. If I could throw around profanity in this forum, my Navy Sailor talk would be running rampant...see above for the lamest response EVER!!!
Looks like we will just have to wait for Steve White to provide some insight...ugh!

Yee haw, let the orders begin. I've inquired as to the discount available to forum members so as soon as that info is provided I will post it here.
Looks like we're good to go with this part...I'm stoked!
