I wanna see the difference with these driving wise. They look brighter but I'm concerned because these dont even have ignitors so I might return them and go with another set. These do have all 5 stars on amazon....
Let us know what you think about them after some night time driving.

Scored these at the local pick and pull, I’ll most likely sell it all minus the rack caps

Jealous need to find some of these. Everyone down here wants full retail price and the local pick yards don't have many ecalades. :okay2:

After seeing @95escahoe post about his junkyard find. I went to a local one today with 0 luck. They had an escy but it was picked apart.

I did find a couple Z71s with roof racks and good fender flares. If anyone in the Woodbridge VA area wants them

Got the old "service air bag" on the dash. My bluedriver code reader said left (driver) impact sensor. $65 or so from rockauto and a few minutes to swap it out while i drained the oil. Problem solved.
I have the same thing except my stupid sensor is 160 bucks.

Which app are you using to read airbag codes? Mine lit up this morning...

Imo leds are so much brighter and cleaner looking then hids. I did the swap over a year ago--what a difference it makes at night.

Depends a huge amount on the optics and quality of components.

A $50 chinese HID kit in a halogen housing is gonna suck. And everyone will hate you.

Man you guys either have great pick it yards or people don't see the potential in some of those parts!

I was talking to the guy at the counter and he was kinda shocked about what I grabbed off the Escalade he pretty much said that Escalade owners don’t bother fixing them up they just get rid of them and get another one, which I understand but at the other time there are plenty of NBS trucks out there that the Esky parts would look great on, it’s listed on there site it’s not like it’s not out there, and it’s been there for awhile it was like 4 rows deep against a wall, was pretty much all there minus the door panels, just sucks it’s an 02 I would have grabbed more interior stuff parts.

Nice, I look online at some of the local pick it yards and their inventory. There was only one escalade out of the 3 and it was bare bones. Went to get some photos off the site and its gone now.

Oh damn that sucks, there’s honestly a lot around here but most are at yards where they show you the truck but they pull the parts so it’s a lot more so if it’s something you need it’s not too bad but in terms of selling the stuff your kinda screwed, and there aren’t many pick and pull yards around anymore due to insurance bs I’m shocked this place still does it honestly
