By far the BEST video i have seen for these generation of trucks of installation of headlights. I just bought a 2006 GMC Sierra, needing headlight work done. Thank you so much too for putting the amazon links in the description.
Thank you for the nice compliment! I think you will be happy with these headlights on your 06 GMC. I am still enjoying these headlights and really like the refreshing look it gave my truck. Thank you again! Cheers!
Parking lights are also referred to as marker lights, they are not lights that go on while your vehicle is in park position. You definitely want to tap the parking/marking lights. Like OP said, DRL will only come on in daylight.
Third solution for the hyperflash: they make replacement relays for LED bulbs. Much easier than in-line resistor and no heat on a resistor that you might have to worry about
I don't really like the look of LED lights. Can I use a regular halogen bulb with these headlights? I like the Sylvania Silverstar Ultra that I have in the stock headlights- I just hate the pattern of the OEM.
Can I make the drl flash with the turn signal? If so how? I plan on doing it myself for the first time just don't want to mess anything up Great video!
Thanks for the video. I have a 06 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4X4. We have Spyder lights just like yours coming in tomorrow. How are yours holding up? I think I may silicone around the housing for added insurance.
On the light fixture yes I did was there are 3 small screws on the back were the conector is you can screw tight or loos the screws an them tight the small screws.. if you ever need to help you on the moisture help..
My daytime running bar does not light up. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? I connected the negative to the negative and the positive with positive wires by using the T tap splicers.
They are brighter but a little more fainter on the side of the road. The stock seem wider like a flood light but didn’t have the same distance as these
I used 18-14 awg for the wire tap size. Hope this helps! www.acehardware.com/departments/lighting-and-electrical/boxes-fittings-and-conduit/lugs/34566?store=15648&gclid=Cj0KCQiA-eeMBhCpARIsAAZfxZCmfFkHBDIV0lCML26o_uJDMCwIpMPpuVAFDjQPVvuIwLS9l7NlT6kaAp2lEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
@@joelwallisadv yea possibly getting em exchange but thanks dude did exactly as you did with the quick splices followed every step truck looks clean other than that hoping new one works then I’ll upgrade all bulbs to leds or hids havnt decided yet
I used 18-14 awg tap splices. Not sure by what you mean how to use it as they are headlights and pretty straight forward. Let me know what you were referring to and I’ll see about a video if it makes sense 😁🙌
@@fitcardYT these are what you’ll want to use. Same as the ones I used. www.acehardware.com/departments/lighting-and-electrical/boxes-fittings-and-conduit/lugs/34566?store=15648&gclid=Cj0KCQiA-eeMBhCpARIsAAZfxZCmfFkHBDIV0lCML26o_uJDMCwIpMPpuVAFDjQPVvuIwLS9l7NlT6kaAp2lEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
I just ordered these lights but the turn signal assembly is different from yours even though I clicked your link. Yours has a crystal design over the far right bulb. The ones in the link must be a newer generation or something because they are completely clear. I like yours a lot more but I don't think I have any other choice from Akkon unless I go with the clear with amber. That sucks but either way it'll look better than what I have now. Thanks for the video. Very informative
I actually kinda like them better but I think I found the version that I have in the eBay link below in case you can return them. But either way it’s gonna look better then stock imo 😎www.ebay.com/itm/382227549507?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Oy-oQhUTQ1q&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=W6vwhT2_SAG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
