Denali looks good with tint! I went through tail light issues when I first got leds in the spring. It sucks. But mine was due to ****** made led tails, where they were each wired differently and worked differently. Lol. Gotta go name brand on leds so you don’t get problems. And tails with resistors already built in.

they said "error free" and had 2 big ballasts that came with them. i assumed they were "resisted". guess i was wrong. my new brake switch should be in by end of day. for now it's stock tails though :)

When your back window gets muddy from the slush and you can't see out of it? Michigan slush. Dirt, salt that smears and water/ice/snow... All that creates is a dirty back window that you can't see out of, to find out if someone is about to rear end you because they slid through our icy roads. I want to see my death coming lol

haha, i totally get that. i'm originally from the midwest and have had a few people slide into me on those slushy icy days. just staring out your rear view and knowing someone is coming in too hot, and you brace yourself!
different states constitute different customizable situations :)

I get snow too. And grime and mush from the roads. But Remember, I’m a professional detailer. Even if all I do is take a rag with some detailer spray, and clear the smudge, it’s much clearer to see out of versus running the stupid wiper that only covers a tiny portion of the glass, and even with washer fluid it just moves the dirt around. Doesn’t really clear it off. My trick is better than the wiper blade haha.

Don't want to share your tips lol I see how you are. I'm in damn need of a detail, but can't get that done till I fix and replace body parts
