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

[Tide]

Any tips on removing this trim around the window? Tried getting a flat head behind the clips but that didn’t do a thing.
If I mess with it much more I’ll break it.

pretty sure the door panel needs to come off and the window needs to be rolled down and then you should be able to see the metal clips inside the groove

 

[Doubeleive]

assuming you are replacing it then if you look at the new one you will see right where the clips are

Thanks. I’ll give that a try.

All for LED technology but they're too bright for my eyes for the interior and my wife doesn't like them either. Maybe if someone were to make them more subdued to emulate incandescant bulbs. I know they do make such individual LEDs because I've done this with RC Tanks.

Same here. My interior lights seem bright enough for me, I can't imagine them being brighter without being too annoying. Who knows, maybe the previous (original) owner put LEDs in there, I should pull a couple lenses and take a look.

Tried to do the same thing for the same reason based on a YT video. Finally gave up when I thought I was going to break it.

Please do. I'm somewhat of a fanatic when it comes to trying to quiet the cabin as much as possible (cheap and within reason).

if you cant get it off go by a body shop and ask them how it's done, I seem to recall one telling me they are a PIA

Yup. I love the bright LEDs for the exterior bulbs, but a bit glarey for me for interior. OTOH, if I end up doing my cluster in LEDs... I’ll likely be replacing other interior bulbs as well...

I’ll Probly pull the trigger today on something to blackout some of the chrome. Thinking I’m going to start with the long door pieces, window trim, and fender “vents.” Leaving the rack, handles, and running boards.

I really like those tail lights. They aren't factory are they?

I believe they are factory. It’s a 2013 if that matters.

If I can find a removable film or spray I’ll give them a light tint. I don’t want anything permanent on them.

I've used VHT Nite-shades spray on another vehicle years ago. Just one coat was enough to reduce contrast between the black paint on the truck and the bright red of the lenses. It didn't seem to dim the light output, either. I masked off the reverse lenses, which were clear, so they'd have full brightness. I never tried to remove it. But it shouldn't be that hard to polish it off with a little compound.

Replaced a rear window switch from switchdoctor on ebay. These are made in same factory in Mexico as ACDelco for 1/3 the price. Paid $8 delivered.

Installed a new black mesh grill and a newer 2015 Escalade style emblem on the 07. Covered the chrome hood trim piece with gloss black vinyl and it came out terrible. I'll re-do it when i get some time. I'm gonna black out the headlights and tint the fog lights as soon as it warms up here in Austin and maybe black out the chrome on the new emblem.

Hope this hasn't caused you any heartache. You should start a Go Fund Me.

That vinyl can be really tricky. I had to learn using small pieces. It's probably a little easier when it's warm out. Still, it looks great in the photo. I like the mesh grille.

Messing around with cars/home improvements over the years I've learned that there's 3 things I suck at... spray painting, caulking, and any kind of vinyl application. Maybe I'll get there one day

And thanks btw
