Thanks so much. I just placed an order.

Does anyone know the part number or where I can source the countersunk, Torx drive mounting bolts for mounting the lift gate striker plate? I can find plenty of the plates themselves but none of my usual OEM sites even show the mounting bolts. From all of the photos that I can find online, the...

The install went fairly well. Lots of wire fishing! I decided not to install the foot kick switch. Once I had all of the wiring run and the struts and brackets changed I held my breath and connected the power wire. The LED in the control box blinked about 17 times or so and went out. I pushed...

I ordered the kit on Sunday and it was delivered on Thursday. Not bad. I just unpacked everything and all of the parts and bits arrived in great condition. The packaging was great. They even included a drill bit for mounting the rear switch. However my kit (V3) did not include the screws for...

For my wife, the heated seats are more than just a novelty due to the lingering effects of an accident many years ago. Besides, who doesn't enjoy a challenge? :becky:

It Works!! Let me begin with: Old Red is, indeed, THE MAN!!!! We talked through several possibilities, I connected TechStream and found no codes, lost communication or anything obvious. It turned out to be a missed ground strap connection at the driver side kick panel. All function is...

Update: Well, I got the heated seats working perfectly in the wife's SR5 but I am still having problems with the lock system and I have run out of ideas. To recap: I added stock heated seats to my SR5. The passenger side was already wired for it and works just fine. The driver side needed the...

The plastic air duct for the vents on the back of the console are on the driver side inside the console. If your heat was on high then you just had more hot air moving through the ducts making that side feel warmer. Nothing to be concerned with.

Update: Adding the missing wires for the SR5 driver seat harness is NOT going to be a project for the timid or inexperienced. At least, I am not timid:rolleyes: The 12V+ wire has to be added from the FO1 connector at the driver kick panel to the Ob1 connector at the driver seat. The switch...

Alaska, sorry I did not take any pictures of the install. My wife's truck is a 2017 SR5 Yes, I ordered (and used) the list of parts compiled by Ezekiel2222. If you have ever taken automotive seats apart there is nothing special about the process. Just do not be afraid to push/fold/bend the...

Heated Seats added to 2017 SR5...almost. First, thanks to Ezekiel2222 for creating the complete parts list. After a bit of research I decided to pull the trigger on the OEM parts to add heated seats to the wife's SR5. As a part of my research, I examined her truck and found the 20A fuse...
