Default Overhead console

Im interested in installing a overhead console into my truck. I found one for 20 bucks it came out of a 2007 Dodge ram 2500 with a 5.7L. Would it work for my truck? How hard would it to be to wire it and is there already mounting spots under the head liner?

Your's doesn't have one now? I think the wiring is already there. It should be a plug and play deal.

Should work on yours, but if the pigtail isn't there you're going to have to get a wiring diagram and DIY.

the wires exist on all ram's i believe, it goes up the drivers side pillar. will be a connector dangling there. if you get an overhead, just make sure it has the pigtail on it with it's own connector. otherwise get ready to splice a lot of fkn wires.
