Is the DIC plug and play also? I definitely miss that feature, even better if its plug and play.

And those trim pieces left/right of the airbag and worm, but the rubber wheel itself has separated from the metal frame at the top of the wheel, I guess from some white knuckle driving my SHP. Sounds like I'll just order a loaded wheel and be set.

People are pretty proud of factory consoles, they are from $400-600 on eBay.....but I know I'll need to suck it up since I do want one.

I actually like the quiet/stealth of the factory system, at least for the moment. I am getting the front glass tinted 20% to match the rears, and the windshield done 40%. That will be done Sunday.

The bigger element of surprise from this questionable SHP vehicle while on the road will come when I get the train horns install. :) That might happen Saturday...

The DIC switch is plug and play. The harness is curled up behind the panel. Someone mentioned cutting a hole for the switch which is one option but I just found the DIC buttons with that whole brushed trim piece that runs across the dash for around $30 on eBay I think it was.

It's been a while so I forgot what model is equivalent and comes in the same brushed finish. It may be a Silverado part.

Keep your eyes out on eBay (set an alert). I'm telling ya I've seen numerous go for $100'ish. I don't see any black ones right now but here's a tan one as an example. Also you can always call around to the local junk yards and in most cities there are people who shop those government auctions and resell a lot of police vehicle parts. Either are good route.

We all have the kid in us still to an extent. I told a co-worker I was looking for a DIC switch during lunch. He asked why I wanted to mount a DIC to my dashboard. Stupid 10yo humor, but it produced giggles for several minutes lol

Roger, is part 22947783 the steering wheel you ordered? I'm eyeballing those now.....

Richard I got mine used off of eBay, I just did a search for 2007-2014 Tahoe leather steering wheel, some were used and some were new. I'm cheap so I got the used one. I think Samuraj on this forum got him a new one. some of the used ones are a POS, look at the pictures real well.
