Message:
I bought a 2000 Quad Cab new, It was a pretty nice truck, 4.7, auto, 3.55 gears, 4x4, bucket seats console, foglights cruise tilt and a/c. I got pretty much everything but the power windows and locks I was used to having on other trucks I have owned. Since I had already gotten a bedliner and cd changer out of my dealer, they offered to install power windows and locks and keyless entry for me parts plus labor for $1000.00 I was under the impression that they would use mopar parts but when I got the truck back I found out they had used aftermarket parts, which wasn't that big of a deal to me at first. I guess I'm just a picky person but after awhile I seemed not to like it as well. They did a pretty good job of it, I just don't like the switches they used and the door locks are central locking which means that if you lock or unlock either of the front doors, they all lock or unlock, which I HATE! I have saw kits in JcWhitney which are switch operated and have thought about having one of those installed. What I would like is for anyone else out there who has aftermarket power windows and locks installed on their trucks I'd love to hear about it or see some pics of their swithces and where they are installed and where they got them from. My dealer did mount them where they would be from the factory which was a pretty cool touch so maybe I am just picky. I have even considered trading it in on another dakota with everything that I want but I can't make my mind up. I would love to hear from all of you that have aftermarket parts installed on your Daks. I know by looking at the pics in the photo albums that alot of people are pretty creative and can give me a few ideas about what to do with my truck so I can figure out what direction I need to go in. you can email me at jbolling@naxs.com or just post your reply here. Thanks alot!
