    [SOLVED] Hauling dirty/big things in Tahoe…

    i have that Weathertech cargo liner….. It is only long enough for the 3rd seat down ( or in my ’05, ..the 3rd seat removed. ) They don’t make one for the full 8’ length. What I use is a thick canvas drop cloth, folded in half, & reaches up against the 2nd row seats folded up, and goes to the...

    I have the lid / rubber insert, that is also a fast charger as you lay your phone on it. ( it has an ‘on-off’ button, and it fits like an OEM pad. Made by Boost Auto……. Well made…. includes an EASY power / plug-into - harness adapter ( access from behind your rear control console panel ).

    Center console lid falls down

    I prefer my lid design ( ’05 )….. Opens sideways…. When open ( and stays open)….. It doesn’t interfere with my elbow when digging inside it. ( Like what Scotty says in Star Trek )….. “Engineers…… They love to change things “ :)

    ( kitchen )……. CAD of cabinets are probably a guess. Get exact measurements of appliances. THEN cabinets are sized to fit like a Lego set. Configure location of GFI outlets…. above backsplash…… or installed through backsplash if it’s high design. ( wall-hung cabinets about 17 1/2 inches above...

    I see those windows above the front door ( and rear ).. to be a half-circle at the top….. My 2-story has a half-circle above the entry and it’s a nice accent for an entry. “ Inviting “ feel for an entrance.

    Thinking about lowered. I have questions

    Contact my friend, Chris St.Amand @ FARMBOY Custom Co. ( 561)-795-2165. ( West Palm Beach, Fl )….. His shop is dedicated to truck suspensions. He’s done some wonderful work on my ’05 Yukon. ( stock height - suspension improvements )….. He will advise you.

    Ha….. If I open it up……. I always clean whatever I work on……. Common sense. Plus you can discover something that needs attention as you clean. ( Was my reputation as I ‘detail’ off-shore powerboats / engine bay before race days … It’s the little stuff that can stop a million dollar...

    Funny… You are not alone…... happened to me also….. 3 months after buying my 2005 Yukon ( 6 years ago)….. I had no idea my mirrors folded. Until i saw posts about the driver side door switches.

    I would guess……. compare wires from both type mirrors. Uh, if they are not power fold, maybe they will manually fold in your hands?

    just out of curiosity
