Cluster came out great.

 

[SteveB]

Yeah it looks good in there. Need to do leds in it. Notices I have a couple of bulbs out in my havc too. Thinking about doing blue leds in all the switches and cluster.

Here's mine with blue leds.

Yeah have seen lots with the blue upgrade. Only thing I don't like is how the odometer and dic is greenish. Read on here that someone used blue tint it change it to blue. Then I have to see if I can hunt down some blue needles.

I agree about the green. That was @iamdub who used the blue tint. He was kind enough to send me some. I put it on mine. Good enough.

Cluster looks good! My Escalade platinum edition cluster has blue LEDs and and blue needles. It already had the blue tint over the info center and the gear selector screen. It looks really good! Digital dash solutions has the blue needles! You can pick them up from eBay. That’s what I did when I did my cluster upgrade.

Personally I like the red needles, but read the blue leds would wash them out.

So I decided not to use the flares. I like how the chrome on the door mouldings kinda flows with the rims. Still need to paint my bumpers , and quarters as they have the paint beat off the bottoms from gravel. Plus the passenger side has a couple of dents and some nasty scratches in it. Need to get rid of those ugly tail lights also. Most likely just night shade the amber part for now ( cheaper than aftermarket lights for now).

Trying to decide if I want to do the console shifter or a nnbs shifter. I really like the console idea but having to lift my coffee over it all the time I can see coffee being spilled. But every truck or suv that the wife and I have owned or own has the console shifter. I have access to either shifter. The only part I might have to buy would be the column plastic covers.

Keep the shifter on the column and do the NNBS shifter! It looks rad! I did it in the spring. It’s an easy swap and looks good!

Here’s my NNBS shifter. I’m fairly picky about color so I matched the center part to my lighter tan interior with SEM leather dye.

Is your's leather wrapped like Tony's?

Sorta. Lol. It was out of an LTZ suburban, and it’s made to feel like leather but it’s not actual leather. No stitching on the one side. The Denali/Escalade shifters are wrapped in leather. But then it’s dyed in sem leather, so yes I made it leather haha.

I like the smooth look better ....lol
