Kenny D's Tahoe To Go thread

[Kenny D]

I am basically going to start this thread as a way to keep track of maintenance and mods for my 09 Tahoe.
Join in with your honest opinions if you like, give advice is you want, and steal any ideas if you need to.

For starters, I purchased it Feb 1, 2017 with 130247 miles.

11 days later I did removed the door trim that was curling.

March 25th, I did a complete brake job.

Then you guys gave me some more inspiration.

Today I installed my LED reverse lights and underhood LED lights.

This is the stuff on the agenda today.

The under hood light install went easy. I started by locating my switch. I used tin foil to set switch height.
Then I closed the hood and measured the height.

Then removed brace and installed switch.


Then I built my wiring harness. I tapped the power from the junction box by the battery.

The finished install both day and night pics.

I couldn't get good pics of the reverse lights, but that install was pretty easy. Probably will add 2 more LED strips under the hood at a later time.

Good start to the build thread man. Nice work on that under hood switch.
