What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Got tired of the glare on the screen when I was using the backup camera, so I made a hood for it. First image is the view from the my eyeline. I may modify it a bit so it doesn't cut off the screen, but then again, that might defeat the purpose of the hood.

Looks nice, but being in FL(and the lax tint laws/enforcement), I'd definitely recommend a windshield strip of tint at the top if you haven't already, It's pretty bright in your cabin, do you have any other window tint?

I’ve got 20% on the front windows and sunroof. Nothing on the windshield. My screen still gets washed out frequently enough that it’s annoying.

My windshield is 3M 70% and it makes a huge difference but isn't that noticeable from the outside.

I can't get away with that in NC, might try something really light in ceramic just for the heat savings. Although I might wait till after winter, still have OEM glass, I'm betting it'll break this winter sometime.

on a side note Hey which window vents are those? I've been looking for the slim versions just don't know the model.

Edit: I see you are in NC as well, still don't think I could get away with a dark tint up front... I'm in the triad as well, do you recommend anywhere for the ceramic tint? I have to get the front two doors done again as well(bought used with a couple of nicks in the tint)

I have them as well. I love them. Although they hit the glass when you slam the door and people have reported that they also will hit the glass when they are driving fast.

70% is effectively clear... if you measured your UN-tinted front door glass with a VLT/tint meter it will measure out at around 70%... just FYI

I have the 70% ceramic on the windshield of my Burb with a 8" 5% strip at the top and 18% on the front doors to match the factory rear tint.

It is hot in FL and the tint makes a noticeable difference.

Yes, I know 70% is lite, but I'm after the thermal benefit more than anything else.


Oh I know FL... We lived there 7 years, our last car was 20% all around, with a big strip on the front.

70% is not noticable. I've had it inspected twice by the dealership, no issues.

I recommend Sound Solutions off Wendover Ave in Greensboro. Good work. Good prices.

The ceramic film is great for blocking the heat.

I went with Hüper Optik film...

Would there be a difference between the Tahoe/Yukon and the suburban/Yukon XL window visors? I don't see why there would be

shouldn't be, just the rear door glass is different on the bottom

They are different. I grabbed a set from another member off an XL not even thinking about it. Do not fit the tahoe. They are too long.

hmm that's good to know figured they would be the same across the top

Well that sucks for me since I ordered the first link......
I still have time to cancel it on Amazon, but I also got a used/like new set(damaged PKG) for $28 shipped so I might just keep it and see if I can modify the rear ones

Should mention that my mix up was on an NBS, not sure if that would matter or not. I guess you'll know soon enough.

It's $28, trial and error I guess. No big deal if I lose out. I can still use the fronts

Yes. At least on NBS, the fronts are the same. Unfortunately for me, I was after the rears for the contour.

So this happened today. Free travel Mod and Airlift 1000 bags. Wish I had known about these mods 10 years ago! Shout out to @NORCAL SS , and all of those who responded to my previous posts on the matter.
