Picked up a center console 12" subwoofer and am loving it!
However, I never realized how much I actually use the OEM center console. It keeps a ton of my tools, all my coins (for parking meters), etc.
so this setup is back up for sale already lol
but from what I can tell, they're mostly custom made by DIY folk
might have to see if my dad knows anything about welding...
either way, super pumped to get home on Thursday and finally start knocking out some stuff in this vehicle!

yeah I've never really been a fan
I only wanted them so I could fit my amps and batteries in the middle, but now I don't need that
plus it irritates me having grey 2nd row and tan 1st row xd

mhmhmhmhmhm updates
subwoofer, amps, and 2nd row are out
but I'm playing with the idea of selling the truck and getting a Suburban or Yukon XL.
almost snatched up one in Chicago today with 87k original miles for $5500, but saw the ad just a bit too late!
might be a little bit before there are any significant updates on this vehicle or whatever new one I get

After looking at several Suburbans, I decided not to get one.
I'm pretty comfortable with the size of the Tahoe, and don't know that I'd really use the extra space of a suburban.
So back to updates!
Threw my new Bench Seats back in
Still haven't hooked up an amp to see if the new RCA's changed anything, but that should come soon

I got excited since it was a nice day, which meant it was time for the $50 HD Hood!
Just 6x 13MM bolts hold the hood in place, which I never knew.

Already loving the look of it, even though the brush guard will cover most of it, I'll always know it's there!
After the hood, it was time to swap from the pretty bald Silverado rims and tires, to the brand new 285/75/r16 Hummer H3 rims and tires.

The rims came from my dad's suburban, so I have to go hit them with some more plasti-dip, but I'll do that when I do the entire vehicle.
On the forecast for the next few days:
1) Install my amps again so I have sound
2) Install tow mirrors
3) Plasti-dip entire truck
4) Potentially pay to have my rear passenger window retinted. The little scratch bothers me a bit

Yep I love it! A shame the brush guard will cover so much of it
maybe I'll drive around for a few weeks without the guard on lol

First order of business will be to call out to some local tint shops and see if I can get that done.
Gonna be restoring the Tahoe to stock and putting it for sale for around $3k.

Did you use your existing hood brackets or brackets that came with the HD hood?

I didn't receive any brackets when I got the hood, so I used the existing brackets from my Tahoe

Since it's a stock hood, all of your original hardware will work. Try to get the HD hoodliner with it. Those are different.

After probably 40 or so hours of work, I got the truck back to "stock" ish enough to sell I think.
Here was the very (mentally) painful task of removing the front tints

figured it would appeal to a bigger population of people if it didn't have the darkest tint in our state
for sale now, it looks like this:
