Upgraded (IMO) my dash to two-tone black and tan this weekend by installing a Coverlay dash cover. Also replaced the clips on my Metra double-din dash bezel from the ****** aftermarket ones it comes with to new OEM clips I ordered. It fits way better now–much more tight and sturdy. I walked through both upgrades in a video:

No change. Nothing that I can't attribute to random variance anyway. Misfire counts, long term fuel trims, and idle feel remain unchanged. So my takeaways are: either my injectors are fine, or they aren't and the tank added fuel injector cleaner is ineffective. Couldn't say without pulling injectors and measuring flow / pattern and I'm not going to do that
Something wrong with that mileage? It’s twice what I getNo change. Nothing that I can't attribute to random variance anyway. Misfire counts, long term fuel trims, and idle feel remain unchanged.

Now can you replace the 2015 keey flob with my old 2006 keey flob ? [emoji849][emoji15]With factory remote start.. because my originals look just like yours.
Let's say they have some serious miles on them lol.
I know I can open doors and start with app on cellphone using my obdlink adapter.

Put a LOT of time into the Tahoe this weekend. Permanently installed a battery maintainer with a plug mounted on the bumper, painted the passenger airbag cover, installed a Coverlay dash cover, installed a custom switch panel where the cassette player used to be.. This is a quick write-up on the battery maintainer.
So I've been having a TON of trouble with my Tahoe battery. I have a bunch of equipment that draws on the battery at all times and I don't drive it on a daily basis. In fact, I go out of town at least once a month. So three batteries have died on me, including my hella expensive XS Power D3400, which not only died, but is damaged an unchargable.
My plan is to eventually install a second battery for accessories, isolated from the starter battery (already bought the mounting tray), but for now, I made my owner extension cable:
I have an aftermarket Hammerhead flush-mount rear bumper that already had a 1.75" hole for access to the key cylinder for the stock spare tire release. The outlet fit in there perfectly! I mounted my battery maintainer directly on top of my battery and ran the cable to the rear bumper. Here's a video of the process:

I'l try to cut together a video(s) of the dash cover and switch panel later today.
Great mod, that's my next mod. My SUV is not a daily either and I'm having the same battery issue you have.

Nice! What kind of battery are you running? After the XS Power battery died I just ran to Advanced and got whatever they had on the shelf.. turned out to be that Duralast.
