Very nice Mark! They look great, as always!

Although.. what’s with the fogged Driver head..? [emoji2959]
They’re both fogged a bit in the lower half. They do that once in awhile depending on temp changes and humidity level but always clear up in a few hours. Anyway, they’re going to be opened up soon to do the quad projector retrofit. I have the second set of projectors and black shrouds all ready to go. There won’t be no stinking chrome reflector bowls in those headlights when I’m done.
Edit: here ya go, all cleared up.

Dang, i just cleaned my passenger door latch (front) like a week or two ago and fixed it. Now the rear passenger door one is doing the same thing (doesn't turn on the dome light etc). Just had that panel off to paint the speaker grilles argggh

It takes about 2 minutes to pull a door panel on a NBS, not even any clips to break. :popcorn:

This was last week, but anyway.. I had some Lasfit fog bulbs in, and one of them died after only about 2 weeks. Even worse though, these factory fog housings just bounce and wobble all
Over the damn place and it makes me crazy...

So, just to see how this would work.. I zip tied in some small wood blocks, between them and the bumper support, to make them more solid. I know it’s a ricer / ghetto job, but wasn’t sure how they’d work, and the vibration was just too much. They’ve been on for about a week now, and I must say, I’m very happy with the results of my hackery. [emoji23] maybe I’ll pull them out, and paint black at least... I dunno.

Also, pretty happy with these Beamtech 880 fogs so far..

Sold it. Well, not today, rather about a month ago.

The plan was to buy a 2017 PPV Tahoe, but they're priced stupidly high. I could pick up an LS with the same miles and price, and at least have some comfort options. In the end I decided a truck would better suit my needs and bought a crew cab Silverado. I hope it serves me as well and for as long as the Yukon did.

Thanks to everyone did write ups and helped with questions.

Last week I installed AC delco upper/lower control arms with new centrics and bolts. Flipped the steering bar around as I noticed last time after doing tie rods that someone before me had it installed backwards. Truck drives so crispy now!
