Yeah it might be the 'correct' way but I've done that way in the past. Just skin em' back and use some electrical tape and PRESTO-your done. The true audio guys would frown without solder or shrink but hey......

Soldering would be ideal but I would advise you to at the least crimp them. If you just twist them together that just adds more resistance and could cause the load resistors to get even hotter.

Well got my 2 packages from FedEx this am and installed the rest of my stuff. The popcorn should be gone by now fellas.......

(1) Installed new LED's in front parking lamps along with load resistors. I went with these because with the clear housings and filament bulbs--they had a orange tint to them from the bulbs so they didn't look as 'clear' as I wanted them to. Problem solved.

(2) Installed new 'smoked' LED tails from x3 racing.....the ones everyone else has. Was gonna originally tint my stockers but went with these-it gives the rear a whole new look-maybe time for Esky vent caps next ;)

(3) Picked new carpeted front floor mats with 'DENALI' stitched in them. They are from a company called Lloyd Mats.....great quality. Also grabbed a keychain cuz' what the hell ;)

Onto the pics:

Highland Park, IL. Transplant from SLC, UT to redu
Oil change with Wix filter, synthetic oil, and Lucas oil stabilizer. Installed Sylvania Silverstar Ultra bulbs in high and low beams. Reunited to install GM Accessories auxiliary trans cooler. Cooler is mounted, bury lines are not attached. Won't be able to continue tomorrow because the wife wants to go to the car show. Maybe next weekend, and I'll do a complete trans flush and filter replacement at the same time too.

Thanks man.....yeah I like the 'new' look......can't believe I waited this long to get them....

I agree on new vent caps-just trying to decide between the Esky and the smooth SS ones.....

For me, definitely ESKY. I think they just look classier then the smooth ones. But that's only my opinion.

Windshield wipers and seafoamed the Yukon. Nice smoke show! Not nearly the smoke show that my brother's tundra had for us though. CRAZY amount of smoke from his.

Biggman sweet!!!
And failed with my hids today

You know what, the ones i recently reviced from DDM for my buddy sierra, does that same exact crap. The headlights come on sometimes, but not so bad, the fog lights come on for about 5 seconds then go off and one side flickers on and off. One side i got working, but the other, is just like your vid. Only one side goes wacko

Wonder if they have a bad batch of ballasts/wiring, (which i have got before, and had to rewire thier stuff)

if you get a fix, let me know.

If you're not running a relay they will do that sometimes. Mine did this until I did relays.
