[metb4]

Looks like I will have to go this route

Looks like that product is for the 2019 classic, not the new style

For $180 I can make something exactly tailored to my specific needs. I'll add this to the list

Good call. I have the level 1 package.
Does anyone know if the trim around the wheel wells of the Laramie is considered fender flares.
I noticed the big horns don't have it. I'm trying to buy the splash guards and want to get the right ones.

 

[louz]

anybody find something for a quad cab ? I cant.

 

[laminad]

did you get the level 2 package? I'm not 100% sure but think it is part of that package... still waiting on mine to arrive so it better be!

Yes, I got level 2 package. If I remember correctly, I believe it is an option on the Big Horn, but I bought off the lot so it didn't have it. I'm confused now b/c I was in waffling between an entry Laramie vs. Loaded Big Horn. Big Horn factory rebates made that decision easier.

Seriously so dumb that it’s not standard on a $55k Laramie truck...hoping I can find a good 3rd party option.

Yep, pretty idiotic, considering how much it must cost. But then again, we get trucks decked out in LEDs everywhere, and they go and put halogens on the third brake light and cargo lights, so what do I know... )

Haha! So true! Fortunately that’s what Amazon is for, $50 and swapped out both the third brake light and cargo lights.

I would bet that if you go the RAM dealer and ask the parts department to bring up the illustrated parts drawings of the truck, they can order you the parts you need for the storage compartment... I'm going to try that option. All of these parts are available individually. They can order anything... down to a screw.

My parts department told me it is an entirely different rear bench seat assembly for the one with the under seat storage and you’d have swap out the bench seat. It’s a package deal ordered from factory. I’d love for someone to prove them wrong.

 

[Neurobit]

Doubt it, but I could be wrong.

Ridiculous

I have Level 2 with reclining rear 60/40 and underseat storage.

No part number (at least visible) on the underseat storage assembly. This is my P/N from the seat rails, it's on the drivers side of the 60% rails.

Hope this helps.

For anyone looking towards aftermarket options, I got in touch with Lock'er Down and they told me they're in preproduction for a locking under rear seat option for the '19s with soonish availability. Not as low profile as the factory option but better than nothing I suppose.

Darn... Why does it have to be so complicated? An entirely different seat assembly for a simple storage compartment? Bummer.

This is good news! I will probably go this route when available.

Not that I don't trust the infinite wisdom of parts depts, but did you happen to see the schematics of the two different seat assemblies?

I just feel like it would be dumb for FCA to have to stock multiple seat assemblies opposed to modular design. I can understand the reclining seats are totally different, but the storage box too? Ridiculous. Hopefully Husky and other players get some aftermarket options soon.

 

[Daddio]

I'm disappointed as well. I don't like the looks and cost of the Husky option. I'm going to try my dealer for the OEM part.

Here are 2 pics of the underseat storage, one open and the other folded closed, 2 different sizes/configurations

you mean there is no fold out cover for the storage box, and is this available in the quad cab big horn

Not as professional looking but here's my underseat storage. Already had the plexiglass in the garage, roll of black duct tape $4.00
