    Was cleaning out the truck the other day and found this plug, it has no connector and it just sits there. Where does it go? I have a 2018 off-road double cab automatic.

    You could add aftermarket seat heaters using fused power and ground from connector(s)

    You don't have to have the buttons, the wiring harness is built to go in any version of the vehicle.

    My first thought that it was for power seating the passenger side doesn’t have the plug. But unsure.

    I drive a Miata.
    Power seats were not an option in 2018.

    I agree with heated seats.

    Take a picture showing the rear of the connector/wiring colors like caribe suggested? Or you know, just go look yourself and see if the wires match the colors in post #5…
    Cause I’m pretty sure this is case closed in record time
