    Mystery plug under center console

    I removed the cup holder and tray to get a look inside of the center console and noticed a plug that was not plugged into anything. See attached pic. Any thoughts on what this might be? I have an '09 Z71 with factory non-Bose radio set up. Thanks!

    '09 Z71 Rear End

    Anyone know where I can get information related to the model of rear end my '09 Z71 has? All I know about it is that it has 3.42 gear ratio and GM segment-exclusive automatic locking rear differential. But I am wondering what the model is so I can look up swapping gears. Thanks

    Factory mic with aftermarket HU

    Hi. Does anyone know if it is possible to use the factory installed microphone with an aftermarket head unit (Pioneer AVIC series or Kenwood DNX series)? The factory stereo in my 09 Z71 has a mic installed (used with bluetooth and OnStar) in the ceiling already and I would like to keep that...

    G4 LED tail install

    I just got my G4 tails yesterday but I am a little confused on how to install the 6ohm 2 bulb load resistor I got from v-leds. http://www.v-leds.com/BlinkerWarning-Fix/Turn-Signal-Fix/6-OHM-50W-2-BULB-LED-p4783296-1-2.html It looks like the G4 already has a load resistor. I think it is...

    Speaker size help

    I tried checking Crutchfields but I was still left with some questions. I have an 09 z71 factory non-Bose, non-nav setup. I know the front door accommodate 6.5" and the rear doors can accommodate 5.25" to 6.5". But it looks like there are speakers in the A-pillars. Are those tweeters? If so...

    5.3 swap for 6.x

    Day dreaming at work. Is it possible to swap a 5.3 for a 6.0 or 6.2 in an 09 z71? If so what is the most efficient swap? Crate LS3 or L92? Or just swap blocks and use the existing intake, harness and ecu with a custom tune? Is this even possible with the 6spd transmission and 2spd transfer...

    LED load resistor

    Is it necessary to add load resistors to the license plate and reverse lights when switching to LEDs? I know you need them for the tail lights and maybe the front turn signals due to the fast blink issue. But I am wondering about the others. Thanks.

    Check engine light due to CAI or HID?

    Installed my HID and Volant CAI last weekend. All was fine and dandy for a couple days. Today the CEL came on. Will have the error codes read tomorrow at the auto part store. Buf offhand, anyone have any idea why this might be? CAI was a pretty straight forward install. HID was installed...

    LED tails decision

    Trying to make the call here. I want to get some LED tail lights but can't make the decision to get black, smoked or red. My 09 z71 is black/black and has a stock stance with the stock tires and wheels. It will probably stay this way for the foreseeable future so I am thinking the red would...

    Best lighting settings for HIDs

    Now that the HIDs are in for the lows, what are the best settings for the approach and exit lighting to perserve the lifespan of the bulbs. I read that quick on and off of the bulbs can decrease lifespan. So disable the approach lighting? What about exit? I notice that with the approach...

    Best place to mount HID ballasts

    Hi all, Just got my DDM HID kit for the lows. Wondering where the best place to mount the ballasts would be. Where did you mount yours? I have read that you don't need to go through the fender liner or need to remove the headlight assembly. But that by removing the top 2 bolts on the...

    8" subs in rear doors?

    Is it possible to fit 8" subs in the rear doors of an 09 Tahoe? If I am not mistaken 6.5" speakers will fit but I am wondering if it is possible to do some modification to make 8" fit. I am trying to get some subs in this ride but am not really interested in box taking up space. The JL stealth...

    Kenwood DNX6140 vs. Pioneer AVIC BT910

    Both units have admirable qualities. Though the Garmin nav on the Kenwood seems a bit better. Also the boot time on the Pioneer seemed quite lengthy (35 or 40s). Any opinions? Thanks.

    2nd row radio

    I was thinking of swapping my factory head unit with a Pioneer navi/dvd combo. I know I will have to get adapters for OnStar and steering wheel controls to function the same. But what about the 2nd row radio? Is this in any way connected to the head unit or is it a separate radio unit? Thanks.

    09 6-spd transmission

    This thing is kind of a dog. Just cruising around town in residential areas it shifts into 5th and 6th gear. And when you step on it sometimes it hesitates to downshift to get going. At WOT it shifts pretty well. Even at partial throttle it shifts well. Just noticed a couple of traits that...

    HIR Headlights

    Anyone got any info/experience with these? I am mildly interested in giving them a try. Only thing is that I am not sure there is a bulb type for my 09 Z71 which has H11 lows. Only the 9005 high beams. Thoughts? http://www.hirheadlights.com/

    Tow/Haul Mode

    Hello, I am thinking of getting a BB tune for my 09 Z71. I have read that there is an option to add performance settings to the Tow/Haul mode. I tow a couple of boats (15ft center console and a 24ft sail boat) so I am not sure I want to add the performance setting to the Tow/Haul mode. Question...
