Any way to add audio controls to steering wheel on 2020 Custom?

Can this be done?

On some of the older trucks the wiring harness was already there. We just needed to purchase the buttons and plug them in. That's how it was on my 2007. Not sure about the newest trucks. Maybe take the cover of the steering wheel and have a peak inside?

If anyone wants to revive this, perhaps with VIN/build info that would tell if we have the harness and just need the buttons, or part numbers I think a few of us custom owners are watching. I myself wouldn’t mind getting a heated steering wheel for the winter, but not sure if that is plug and play wheel/harness only or requires computer mod/programming... anyway, just bumping this...

they weren't able to do it on 1500s......tons of custom trail boss owners wanted same thing and it wasn't possible

Yeah I think I read the whole heated seat system, steering wheel, likely a bunch of other controls are computer controlled. Guess it just comes down to how much you want to pay to have all new ECU just for a few things. I myself if I had part numbers would just look to accumulate stuff a little at a time until you have everything you need to pull the trigger and pull the whole thing apart... but, I think it all requires reprogramming to your VIN when you get that deep - that’s what scares me away...

not huge price difference between LT and custom.....think $1600, obviously if you start adding to LT it gets pricier....

None I saw, looking all over Michigan, were nearly that closely priced. Even right now with twice the customer cash and a couple more thousand off employee discount and the closest I'm seeing to want I paid for a CC was about 3-4 more for an LT DC or another 7 for an LT CC.

I opted to give up a few creature comforts to get a 2500 with a great towing set up, over a 1500. Figured d have a comfortable payment established and add extras out of pocket (rather than more interest to pay)as budget allowed. Haven't bought new for a few years and wasn't expecting everything to be locked out. Anyway. Just got upfitter switches for fogs and some other lighting. Only thing I really miss is volume control on the steering wheel instead of taking my eyes off the road. Nav is better on the phone.
