GoodInBlack's 2009 Suburban Build.

Does anyone that have these think they're too bright? Mine light up the ground quite a bit :s ill take a picture when it's dark

No flash or any lighting anywhere near when the picture was taken. The more I look the more dumb it seems that they light up the ground

Mine are that bright but I kinda like it and I'd be willing to bet money nobody else will notice

The funny thing is I paid $10 on eBay for them. So how can I get a cheaper / not as bright one lol.

There are so many things we do to our trucks that nobody ever notice or care about.

I'd be willing to bet that anyone that doesn't own an Escalade/Yukon/Tahoe couldn't tell the difference between an escalade rack to a stock non denali rack if they were side by side

I'd be willing to bed that anyone that doesn't own an Escalade/Yukon/Tahoe couldn't tell the difference between an escalade rack to a stock non denali rack if they were side by side

X2 Point well made. This is the reason why I don't believe in doing a ton of Escalade upgrades.

People who own anything less will always be upstaged by one.

I think it is better to preserve the original trucks personality.

That is why it is better to get a Escalade if you really and truly want one, I never did, I just wanted all the LED's off of one........

and the power running boards.arty28:

I still do them for my personal pleasure though and I know most people on here appreciate them! I out to make the drive from Canada if there was ever a big meet.

What's next on your suburban to do list GIB?

Exactly. Who cares if other people like it. It's all about what floats YOUR boat. For example, there are aspects of the escalade I like, such as the rack, but I didn't want the 6.2, and AWD. It's nice to be able to mod our vehicles to each of our own tastes!

 

[Goodinblack]

Oh yes. ^^^^

I agree, you guys are preaching to the choir......This is a Build thread..... remember friends?

Okay so update.........

The LEDs pretty much look EXACTLY like David's picture.

The only positive I can see is the Large Heatsink the VLEDs have.

They are brighter than I was hoping for, I certainly would NOT want them ANY brighter at all.

Now that I have them I can;t see my self going back to dingy yellow........ever again.

I will post my own tomorrow, as today was crazy at work.

I am sorry for not being able to.

I am really digging the look.

They look like 98% like this in real life.

Oops!! Hehe.
Well at least I'm considered a friend!

Yours were from vled?

I wonder if I could tape off part of the lenses to keep the light on the plate and off the ground.

You better have pics by the time I wake up!

^^Nice Lee!

Regarding your LED's do you think not having heat sinks on the lower powered bulbs will be fine?

I have non-heat sink LED's on the exterior of my avalanche and escalade so that's 12 total for both vehicles and so far only one of them has gone out since I got them installed.

Looks GREAT Lee!!

Good to know. Thanks Felix.

Lee have you ordered your tails yet?

 

[Goodinblack]

Re: GoodInBlack's 2009 Suburban Build.

Sounds great.

Thank you for Jarin and Felix.

I suppose it is all good. With or without the heatsink. I got it because it was available.... for 8.99 shipped.

A little tid bit.......

So out of curiosity I call CG Distributing..... Maker of CG Lights. I ask are these the lights the same as Eagle Eyes brand, thinking he would say heck no...... he says yes, they are our brand.

I said alright, so Anzo is a different company though right?

Person replies, well who do you want to talk to, Anzo or Eagle Eyes?

I said well ANZO, thinking he would tell me to call them and say this is not ANZO, he says hold on......... transfers me to a VM and I hung up.

So Kirk was right all along. Whether you buy EE, Anzo, or CG.......ALL G4s are I would venture to guess are indeed made in the same China factory......

There seems to be NO reason to pay $350.00 to Summit vs. less on Ebay.

I was looking closely at the link you posted on Burbs thread. And after seeing mine (EE g4's from Revotec) in person I can confidently say they look IDENTICAL to the Anzo's.

Funny you posted your 'tid bit' bc I was going to mention that to you anyways.

 

[Goodinblack]

Okay so, I JUST ordered from CarId.

Woohoo! Most excellent Lee. Yes, and I'm excited to see what you think when you see them in person.

 

[Goodinblack]

Hey Jarin? How much did you pay from Ebay?

---------- Post added at 02:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 PM ----------

Hey David...... I answered your question about the next modification?

Sorry Josh. I will explain why I choose these over the ones you listed in a bit.

Re: GoodInBlack's 2009 Suburban Build.
