eddieo818 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 my donor truck was an 06 and mine is a 05 i think the issue is when you try to mix up 03-04 and 05-06... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben525 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 well the way i got my seats functioning 100% in my truck was i took the floor harness out of the donor truck and rewired it in my truck everything was plug and play and i have had no issues with anything my seat heaters work my seat position memory everything..... That's a good way to do it. I don't think my seat heaters or seat position memorys gonna work since I don't have everything but o well I'm just happy I got my seats but it would be great if everything worked on mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben525 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 well the rebuilder I had bought the truck from did it for me, I'm not positive exactly what he did,,,But from what I remember he just moved the wires around in the seat harness so they matched up to the truck harness,, He said that for some reason GM changed the order of the wires around but kept all the same wires & plugs,,,I think he just had to match up the colors,,,as for my SS,,,, I had bought it as a recoved theft,,,The rebuilder had replaced everything with OEM parts accept the wheels & seats, So I replaced that when I bought it,,,Then I made a stupid decision to sell it and have missed it ever since,,Thats why I'm gonna make this Reg-cab a true clone with cladding and all,,,Got all the cladding & center console from "Gasemall" just hav'nt had the cash to get it all painted blue,,,, Yea it takes time but I know your gonna love it when it's done now I just need to save up for the lq9. Hopefully next week i'm gonna order my ss 22's if I have time. How do you like your ss 22's? I'm not sure if I'm gonna like em chrome on my truck I might get em painted stock gray but well see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if I'm gonna like em chrome on my truck I might get em painted stock gray but well see well I liked the way the 22" replicas looked but at the time the prevous owner that bought them didn't allow for the 2/3 drop and got too big a tire & they rubbed pretty bad, And rather than spending a ton to get smaller 22" tires I just traded another member my 22's & some cash for chrome SS 20's & all the SS cladding,,,, Edited February 5, 2010 by miSSouriSS (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Hall Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Damn sounds like a good deal oem 20's and cladding I ended up giving $700 to boot for the SS 20's, cladding, and console. Then I paid just over $600 for new tires, but we both got what we were looking for & It'll be worth it when I finally get the cladding on, I can tell that from the pics of yours.

Ruben525 Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I put my seats in yesterday, wired everything up and they look alot better. I found about 3 dollars in change when I took my stock seats out got myself some lunch with that . The only thing that bothers me is that I feel alot closer to my steering wheel and they feel like they sit higher to. Is it just me or are they thicker and higher then my stock seats? I can't go any ferther back because of my speaker box. Also I just ordered my SS 22's I should have them on by next saturday I can't wait.
