Yep, lol. And that picture is in a VERY well lit parking garage at my work. I should take a pic of them in a really dark area. They light up the damn ground like reverse lights, lmao.
Here's a link to the lights I bought. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07JH7LH3C?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

I don't remember. But I also just realized that there's two or three other sellers on Amazon selling what looks like the same exact lights for like 3 bucks cheaper. Oh well, I'm not gonna worry over 3 bucks. I'm satisfied with them for the $20 I paid for them. Now I just wonder how long will they last?? If they crap out in a month or two then no they aren't worth $20 then. The last cheap LED bulbs that I had in the dactfac housings had a few LEDs start flickering or burn out after a few months. But I paid basically a little over a dollar per bulb. You get what you pay for.

Factory radio took a shit. We were on our way to my mother-in-law's house and the sound was cutting out.
"What the crap?"
"Oh yeah, it's been doing that", my wife says.
"Uh... for how long?"
"I dunno, couple weeks?"
(You married fellas can relate to this next question)
"So uh... when were ya planning on telling me?"
"I don't know, I thought you knew.. you drive it too!"
"It's not done it when I drive it..."
No sooner did I say that, than did the sound cut out and not come back at all.
Ordered a cheapy chinese made double DIN touchscreen w/ nav, bluetooth, backup cam, and all that jazz off of amazon for 169. Had like 4.5 starts with about 500 or so reviews. Figured it couldn't be that bad. At least she'd have some tunes until I can afford to get the radio I want for it.
Got here today. Gonna try and knock out the install tomorrow.

Curious to know if this installs without cutting the support bracket in the radio compartment, as well as your eval of the quality.

This what I got for the yukon. I plan to change it a lot sooner than what it’s recommended for. Went with it mainly for the cleaning aspect. Got the oe for the impala

Yeah I've had a lot of good experience with Sony. Been curious about their Android HU's. This is really just an interim option until I can get the one I REALLY want for it. After that, this one will probably just go in the Ram. I'm giving the wife the good stuff.... for me... well, I've been bumpin' along to cobbled together systems for 20+ years. Doesn't bother me much.
I would imagine it would as it's much "shallower" than even the factory HU. There's no DVD/CD drive, so it's about 2" less deep than a traditional HU.
I'm planning on an un-boxing/review on my YouTube channel. I'll post the link once it's up.
I got those also. Got mine from eBay. Love them

Did you buy all the necessary extras like steering wheel control adapter, wiring harness, antenna adapter, mounting kit, etc?Factory radio took a shit. We were on our way to my mother-in-law's house and the sound was cutting out.

Hey, I just ran across this video. I'll still probably do one for my own channel, but for some instant gratification, this goes along with the reviews I read on Amazon. Pretty kickass little unit.

Link is in my sig, but here ya go! https://www.youtube.com/basslicks82
I already have a metra harness for it. Installed an old Kenwood unit that finally bit the bullet, so I pulled that out and replaced it with the stock unit. Saved the harness because I knew I'd be installing an aftermarket unit.
I believe I have an adapter laying around somewhere too... but I didn't need one with the Kenwood, so I don't know if I'll need one with this or not.
The unit already comes with mounting brackets and I'll make my own shroud for the gaps. Did that for a pontiac that I had and it looked pretty killer.
I don't have any steering wheel controls, so I won't need that, but it comes with a harness for the interface... so if any of you are looking for that, you'll be pleased to know that as well.
Comes with external mic, GPS antenna, WiFi antenna, USB extension cable, and a cable that is used for 2A quick charge connected to the back of the unit.
Planning on adding a dash cam, backup cam, OBDII bluetooth, and ATOTO's steering wheel control to it down the road.
Sylvania ZEVO 194 are ridiculously brightI got those also. Got mine from eBay. Love them

The brake lights are factory LED that is running lights, the brake lights are quite a bit brighter... I just bought some Zevo projector 4157R signals rated at 2.2watts @ 14.2v for the signals
..if those don't work out i might get some G6.35 base 35w bulb (50 watt rated output osarm 860lm)
those bulbs sure to make people pay attention maybe even light up the whole back of the street behind me.. there is no limit to the lm output on the signals just the brake lights them selfs
