    Been a long while since I updated, life's been pretty crazy with COVID and all, I have lots of pics to share so I'll get to that this week.

    Watch this video: You will need this kit (shop around using the part number to see if you can find it cheaper): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NF1SK1M Follow the video, it's pretty straight forward (at least I assume it is, I still haven't done it yet).

    DIC isn’t on the steering wheel. It’s the switches on the dash directly to the left of the center vents (which you don’t have at the moment). My build thread has pics.

    Steering wheel upgrade

    If he doesn't, there are tons of them on eBay for very reasonable prices. I had no issues finding a complete leather wheel with all the controls for just under a C-note.

    Yep, that's my plan if after all I've done I still catch a whiff of Fido!

    Yeah, those RCMP Suburbans are used by their Emergency Response Teams. I'm surprised they let a 2015 go to be honest, I've never seen a newer one like that come up at federal auction - only the 07-14 models which are beat to you-know-what. The front bumpers they throw on them are crazy! This...

    Appreciate the words. Won’t be many pics/updates for a week or two; I’m on the road for work as of Sunday and my only time to work on it is weekends. The tires are Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs in 265/70/17.

    Got my 2010 PPV

    Those wheels are awesome. Any idea what they are?

    Thanks for the welcome! If I had a dog or two (life and work travel make that an impossibility right now), I wouldn't have gone to this depth of cleaning for sure. :)

    Alright! It appears my posting ability is okay again (apparently what happened is a rare bug/glitch and they're still trying to sort it out). Last pics for now. Being an ex-LEO vehicle, the driver's seat cushion was understandably thrashed - duty belts aren't gentle on seats. I found another...

    A Sticky for New PPV/SSV Owners To Re-Civilianize Our Tahoes

    You’ll need to source matching seatbelts from that generation of Tahoe and swap them over. It’s a relatively easy job, just some big Torx bolts and pulling a trim panel.

    Mine doesn’t do that either. Let me know if you figure it out.

    100%? Naw. But it’s barely noticeable now. Once I pull all the seats again and pull up the front rubber floor (I was only able to peel it back in sections and am not happy with how well it turned out), run a couple cans of vent/AC cleaner through the HVAC, and then do the cabin filter retrofit...

    Meanwhile, I ordered the proper V620 front seat socket off of Amazon (yes I know I could have used a regular metric socket, but I'm a sucker for buying new tools). It took a few days to get to me... Now that it arrived, it was time to tackle the front seats and below. As expected: more crud...
