Black housing lights for sure. I would say, match the fogs too. Another small upgrade that I’m sure you have looked into would be black factory Escalade door handles. Big difference
Just got one of these for $1,000 from a good friend, interior and exterior in perfect condition and everything is stock. Ive been watching all of your videos, ready to copy all of your ideas! lol keep em coming!
Cant wait until im done with upgrading my 04, new bumpers, front with a brush guard, new tailgate with tailgate cap, new headlights, new tail lights,new radio, remote start, new battery, 2nd battery, new cold air,
You should pick up one of those tailgate struts. Pretty cheap and simple upgrade but really nice especially when youre used to the soft opening on the new trucks
100% regular WD40 is one of the worst things you can use on truck hinges and door latches. There is a reason GM recommends super lube, it’s a silicone based lubricant. WD40 also makes some silicone based lubricants. WD40 won’t last more then a week keeping that hinge squeak free, and because it’s oil based it will attract dirt and can actually damage the latches and hinges.
Super clean setup man. Just a suggestion for future content on this truck would be a black logo, maybe vertical or mesh grill with black and milled snowflakes. Color matched flares and chrome handles only. Not critiquing, just sharing the passion man. That black gmc in that body style has always been one cleanest trucks to me.
The little light you said you was gonna unplug jus buy a switch back LED they're marker lights, you can buy a fuse thing from Fleece that'll turn on all the lights at once
You should definitely look into the fleece light control for the 4 high mod I think they make them with a 6 high mod for these trucks with the fog lights
don’t unplug those amber lights in the front just buy some pure white ones to replace them. i have switchbacks as well and it looks sick when it blinks
I only wish I could add WD-40 to everything on my old truck. Problem is I live in a desert and the oil only collects more dirt which makes it squeak even more. PB Blaster works better as it cleans up nice without any oil residue for dust to collect on.
Those orange corner lights are t10 bulb size, the same as your tag lights and door lights. Put some white led ones in to match the switch back and it’ll look so much better
Spray the door on bottom where the water drains out of door should have 3 on each door. How is the head lights at night any difference? Fog lights keep as same
Might consider a good grease on all hinges, bit messy but the hinges will last forever. Squeek control and last forever. I get the tubes from any car place and load it on. The truck might one day be gone but the hinges will still be perfect. lol
I like the black housings on the front headlights better to be honest. I run them in my 92 OBS Chevy even tho people tell me to put chromes in. Just my personal opinion.
Truck would look even meaner at night with some pure white rock lights to tie in with the leds, I had mine all decked out with the led lights and the relay to turn all the lights low high etc on at the same time
Super sharp truck by the way! I've had from the 97 z71 (2 of those), 05 crew cab z71 smoke grey years ago that i kick myself for selling, a 09 z71, 2014 z71, 2017 denali, to a 2018 duramax, now a 09 duramax and a daily 4x4 06 tahoe, Those 99 to 06 models by far are the best, comfortable interior, easy to work on and the best motors by far! Wouldn't sell my tahoe for the world. Y
I like the black look. Have u thought about half and half. My 06 sierra denali my bottom one is smoked or black and my headlight is clear. I did it to five a more black and chrome look since I have a black sierra denali.
Bought my 2000 with a cracked windshield, i was surprised to be able to get a brand new shield for about a $120. What a difference a clean new shield makes! Its like there is no glass at all without all the little chips and scratches.
Do you have a list somewhere of the lights you installed? I put in the LED flasher unit, but the switchback LED's I got won't work with the running lights on. Maybe I need cheaper ones to work with the LED flasher?
Do your map lights work off the push buttons with the LED bulbs? Mine work when the doors open or when you roll up the dial to turn on all interior lights, but when I push the individual map light buttons they do not come on. They slightly flicker and that's it.
Can you tell me where you got the slt badge? Seems all o can find is aftermarket, and is done in block lettering...meaning the "T" looks like it way off to the right because the T starts where the L ends..no overlap.
I always spray all my hinges and latches with WD/40 when I buy a new (to me) truck! I like the chrome look personally, I have a 2018 F150 magnetic gray and all chrome… actually just added chrome mirrors over the weekend! Chomper looks good with the black/chrome combo for me… keep up the incredible work 👍
