    $1 each? *kicks self* I'm curious why your trip meter and odo are still white. Mine glow blue from the gauge lamps.

    2 door tahoe/blazer/yukon if you got one show it off

    Didn't see 'em on the street back in '97, either, which is why I bought mine :rocking: ---------- Post added at 07:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ---------- Dig the color, Pro-Mo!

    Yes, it is the pulse module. But before you buy one, you might want to pull yours out and look at the circuit board. There's a thread on FSC.com I believe where the guy says that the vast majority of bad pulse modules are due to a cold (bad) solder. He claims to have repaired several simply...

    2 door tahoe/blazer/yukon if you got one show it off

    The only hidden hitch I've ever seen on a 2-dr hoe required replacement of the tank with a smallish fuel cell. With the mileage we get, I can't imagine it's too practical for a DD to shrink the fuel capacity. But that one hoe I saw was also a pro-street custom with big tubs and meats and other...

    Looks great, Malibu! It sucks that we don't have a ready option for a hidden hitch on ours but all things considered it doesn't look too bad there. A nice round tube Curt receiver might clean it up a tad--I've been considering that for mine.

    HELP: how do i remove dome light covers?

    I just got on to the forum to ask how to get to the dome light bulbs... What I don't know is if you have to remove the entire domelight assembly from the headliner, or if you just remove the offwhite cover from the center section.

    That's strange. I have no idea but something you might try is swapping one of your new light/twistlock combos with one of the OEMs you still have in there, and see if the problem switches places. At least you'd know whether something is screwy with the light/base combo or if perhaps something...

    Gang, How do you get the dome light assembly or lens out to replace the bulb?

    Lotsa hotspots there. I've been reading some other threads on fullsizechevy and think I'm going to go with superbrightleds HP5 model. It's the high power surface mount type LEDs and has a forward facing LED as well as 4 radial ones to shine outwards. Pix with those show very uniform lighting.

    Same as your dash, the "cool white"? Interesting that the doors actually look white while the gauges look blue. Hmm.

    Hmm. I think I may go with the SMD (surface mount) type LEDs instead of the WLEDs on mine and for my dad's '88. I was actually looking to do blue on mine but he just wants a brighter white for his. Not sure that cool white is what he's looking for. Maybe their "Natural White" would be...

    Is it possible you got one LED in with reverse polarity? Which brand & model LEDs did you use for the dash and in the door panels?

    Wondering about the 3157 back up lights. I'm not sure why GM used dual-filament bulbs in those lights. Do both filaments light up or just one? If just one, it seems the 3157 would not necessarily use all of the LEDs in a back up light application. I'm looking at the 25-LED replacements...

    Which High-4 kit?

    I installed the Painless kit. My folks got it for me for xmas, and found it at a local shop for just a bit over $20--so the price ended up being about the same if not a little less than the cheap kit (after you add shipping on from Stylin). Works great, even with HID lows and halogen highs...

    Ahh, gotcha now. I'm just a lil slow sometimes :sleepy10: Yeah, I won't bother with it unless it's reasonably easy to get to. It's just one of those little nagging things that would be nice to fix while I'm there for the gauge lights, but isn't necessary. (Well, the gauge lights aren't...
