    This truck is incredible

    Amazing, the front of your truck looks horrible but every other panel and window look fine unlike the Ford. My father was giving me an earful about how $70k dumped into a truck like his old 87 Burb would result in a more durable, capable and powerful rig only at the expense of not having a...

    Rear bumper lower trim piece?

    No, it will not work. The pipe diameter on the 6.2 is larger, studs on the mounting flange are spaced further apart as well. A good exhaust shop can chop and weld anything you ask for!

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    I considered mapping the mounting depth relative to the edge distance but it seemed more trouble than it’s worth since most drivers do not include the dimms of the magnet. The TW3 has a very wide magnet compared to other 10’s I’ve worked with so maybe a more traditional design will fit better...

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    Don’t think that one will fit. I did not measure the mounding depth of the enclosure as it will depend on the width of the subwoofer magnet. The box follows the contour of the wheel well, shallow at the corner and sloping down towards the center. The TW3 had to be clocked precisely so the...

    Rigid SAE Fog Lights as DRLs (23 Denali)

    Working great for me as well, wired up just as jgraves advised. The LCM triggers a solid state relay mounted in the cabin which triggers a standard relay up near the light bar. Three way switch allows OFF - Full ON - Follow High Beams. Does exactly what I wanted without all the craziness I...

    Rigid SAE Fog Lights as DRLs (23 Denali)

    Sweet! I would have never thought to run a relay with the PWM signal, glad to hear it works! Would the high beam signal on X5-16 you tapped be the same as on the headlamp connecter E13LA Pin 4? This may be an easier location to get the signal from.

    How do I keep my engine running in my 2021 Tahoe LT?

    if the above options do not work you can place the vehicle in drive or reverse and engage the parking brake to disable the 20 minute auto shut down. Would be a good idea to point the truck in a safe direction and bring wheel chocks. Its the solution the diesel guys came up with.

    Rigid SAE Fog Lights as DRLs (23 Denali)

    Probably should finish my install at some point.. Your installation looks very nice, I may use it. I did not check in that location as I mainly utilize the automatic Hi/Low beam feature. It does appear to be a good spot to pull a ground based on stalk switch position but I assumed that the BCM...

    Rigid SAE Fog Lights as DRLs (23 Denali)

    I was unable to come up with a method to decode the logic from the BCM to the headlamps but it does seem like a simple task for a an aftermarket company to create. My work around is to measure the amperage draw of the headlamps to determine if the high or low beams are activated. Each headlight...

    Bose 9 speaker system

    Ive got the same stock system, I agree its terrible. Coaxial speakers in the top deck was a huge upgrade in mine, I also installed the Esky 10" subwoofer into the cargo area. Having the highs and lows extended a bit really helped bring the system to an okay state. I suppose the next step would...

    CarPlay connectivity issues after software update

    Similar problem, I couldn't get either of my two Android and Apple devices to connect over WiFi or cable after the latest update. Disconnected the battery for a minute and it all worked after reconnecting. This is turning into a standard practice with the truck - it's the same thing we do...

    Intermittent A/C

    Same fault noted in Houston on a 22 model, cooling effectivity is reduce when cornering or braking hard. Dealership had the truck 5 days and advised pressures are all correct and system is meeting GM published cooling targets. They recalibrated the blend door and also advised that in automatic...

    Relay Trigger to High Beam

    Just to update this thread... progress has stalled. I wanted to install lights as member StevenLynaugh however I found that in the Z71 grill there is not enough space for the lights he used to be installed flush to the bumper. I did a test fit and found the light bar would actually be mounted...

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    Easy. Google "PICASOU 2 PRO Carplay AI Box" It basically turns your screen into an Android tablet which you can also wirelessly Apple Car Play into to replace the GM system if desired. It has USB and HDMI inputs for your rear seat camera and you can load a radar app from the Play Store. Any...

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    Damn, sorry dude. That hump for the stock amplifier is really what kills the possibilities for this box, on my install you may notice the woofer is not mounted square in the box. That was to allow a vent in the basket to straddle that amplifier hump. You know, if someone wanted to relocate the...

    Serious electrical issue on 2021 Z71. Anyone had this?

    Their first resolution was total BS, they were hoping the problem just wouldn't show back up. I would be skeptical of this shop. The bad battery cell didn't cause the battery to go dead. The battery going dead is what caused the cell to fail. - Common sense for any tech... They are on the...

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    I used gmpartsdirect.com as they will ship FedEx for only a couple buck where other wholesale online sellers billed for freight only. You can also order from parts.chevorlet.com and have shipped free to your dealership. The ladder only works out if you order enough to qualify for the 20% discount.

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    Well it hasn't rattled itself apart. I did have some vibrations at the mounting points which had to be adjusted out with some firm foam. The frequency response is kinda funky with a huge spike around 80hz and drops off rapidly after 50hz. I was able to use a DSP to turn that out. I'm not...

    Got a picture with with the bike installed, am I correct in assuming you lay it flat and clamp the downtube?

    2021 Escalade aftermarket sub amplifier issues

    You should have a subwoofer in the LH rear sidewall panel just Infront of the fuse panel access. For an easy way to bypass all the gadgetry I would splice the wires going into that sub to run line level signal to your amplifier. There is an Input Voltage switch on your amp. Should be set to...

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    Stock amp, just those two for now and mine is the 9 speaker Bose.

    What did you do to your 21+ T1XX today?

    Replaced the deck speakers with some coaxials. I strongly recommend this even if you barely care about the stereo. I thought it was ehh okay for a stock stereo but after some A-B testing I can't believe how bad the Bose fall apart at anything above casual listing levels. Whole job took maybe 30...

    My 2022 Tahoe Bose Audio Mods

    FYI the JL 10TW3-D4 does not fit into the esky stock box unless you are stubborn and used to making bad decisions like I am. The cutout diameter is 9 1/8" and the maximum size of the bezel is 11". The JL exceeds both of those dimensions but I do own a router and Dremel. The mounting surface...

    Relay Trigger to High Beam

    Here's the plan. The switch with an astric is the current sensing switch which can be adjusted to trigger at whatever amperage value is needed. I also purchased the Rigid Industries DRL light bars which have a high and low setting. The tuck's side marker light activates the first relay to...
