Then a couple weeks later. (moved all my old mods to the new Tahoe and got the white rims)

Off to the body shop! Removed lower handle and wiper along with the bowtie.

This is how it came out. Also raised the rear up because I hated the sag look it had.

The Tahoe has come along way but it's got a lot further to go.

I am not the owner of any such rachet wheels!

Last week I met with the most devastating of bumps and bent my wheel the point of no return it's unfixable.

So naturally I rush to Discount Tire as the air is leaking out and proceed to order the LAST 24" KMC Brodie at the warehouse in Miami. How lucky was that!

gorgeous, less the rim damage.

So maybe a dumb question, I assume you can still pop the rear glass, but how do you open the entire rear door without the handle/electronic pop release now?

I'm not sure how Blazed has his wired both others have wired the button to lift the entire gate rather than just the glass. I know for me there is rarely a time I even pop the glass and I almost always lift the entire gate. Plus, there's always the buttons on the fob as well so as long as your fob works you really don't even need those buttons on the gate or handles

Not quite burb. That's how modded did it. Q

That in the middle is the button for the entire lift gate.

Still planning on the new rims?

Yah man that busted rim set me back a bit tho.
It's just a matter of time.

Yeah modded is who I was thinking about :waytogo: I hadn't seen how you'd handled it but looks like you still have full functionality with the buttons :)

Obviously it doesn't match and I didn't to good of a job but do y'all like it?
If it's popular I'll redo it professionally obviously.
