I think they redesigned some stuff when they went to the different BUS setup. That part number comes up as being from an HD Chassis Cab.

You mean they changed in Mid-2008?
Is that the EVIC unit (that I referenced in the last post)?

My friends '08 is a 2500 (actually the Power Wagon) and it doesn't look like that.

Hey,I've got a 2006 Ram crew cab sxt and just bought a console # 56045574AD.My truck has no wires running to the area.You seem knowledgeable,any suggestionz on how to make it work and whaf else I will need?

This likely won't work because Rams went from a PCI Bus data/electrical system to a CAN bus in 2006. Once you get the right module and console, you will need a harness, either a junkyard one with enough length to splice in, or if you make one. You would need either this, this, or this.
