The corner lights were purchased off of Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/99-06-GMC-S...HTS-/170830615596?hash=item27c64c542c&vxp=mtr

The headlight bezels were painted by using a heat gun and carefully heating up the glue and separating the lenses, that amber reflective part on the corner will pop out once the lense is removed.
You just have to take your time and slowly separate the lense little by little until it pops apart and then use a good adhesive to put them back together after your done painting the chrome.
Here is a closer picture.
Good info on the headlights.

I got around to installing the bumper lip/extension from an 05-06 Tahoe. Also installed some LED 3157 bulbs in the high beams, they are really bright and almost create a weird halo effect. They had zero light output when installed in the low/projector side.

It is about 24 degrees today but I really needed to know if all the mag chloride and dirt would come off and didn't destroy the Vinyl.
I had to use a microfiber wash mitt to clean it while spraying with the gun and almost lost some fingers but it was all worth it lol.
The vinyl doesn't show any signs of damage or stains, it was caked on for 4 days so that's pretty impressive.
I would highly recommend Avery vinyl to anyone planning on wrapping a car!

Looks good after that wash. Wrap seems to have held up well. Nice one.

I was bored at work today so installed my rear view camera, have it set up so I can view it while I drive if needed as well as turning on when I reverse.
I mounted the tiny camera in the middle of the license plate.

That is a pretty sweet set up to view behind you while driving. How does that link up to come up like that?

I have constant power to the camera while the radio is on so my head unit gives you the option of viewing the camera while driving and the radio still plays iPad music If you bypass the e-brake wire.

It was dead at my shop so I detailed the Denali inside since it's so cold and took a picture of where the camera is mounted, in the middle of the license plate. It's just a cheap $15 shipped camera off of Ebay but works for me.

Thx man. Looks clean sitting in the shop before the snow slop. At least it felt good for a few minutes before mother nature had her way. :waytogo:
