RENAMED!! The adventures of Chase and his 2006 Yukon XL Denali!! Follow along on my travels!

Well..... I’m an idiot as it turns out.... I was puzzled and couldn’t figure out what the heck was going on until I actually looked at the tail lights. I assumed(and we all know what does...) that the resistors on the new tails were wired into the brake lights.... they’re not and I’m an idiot for not looking at them the right way... resistors are wired into the turn signals to prevent hyper flash..... what a moron I am...

Glad you got it figured out.

Classic mistake

Led tails - 1
Chase - 0

Like it says in my signature, “Experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.” You just got some experience!

Glad you got it figured out Chase.

Ordered new tails on amazon. Went with a slightly different setup this time. Still the same C shaped LED tube, but the tube on the new set has a red tint instead of a white cover with red LED. IT LOOKS REALLY COOL! Plus the housing is gloss black instead of flat black, so they look REALLY dark! And the border around the edge of the lenses is gloss black instead of clear. Really cool contrast against my silver paint!

I made the swap in the back lot of the mechanics after I had finished washing cars, while I was waiting for the boss to get back from an errand pay me lol.
CG just put a new product, a ceramic infused detailer spray, called Hydro speed. To go in line with their hydro line up, I ordered a bottle. Got delivered yesterday same time as the tail lights. Lol. Hit the new light lenses with a bit of that keep them protected until I can give my truck a fresh ceramic coat I. A couple weeks when I have use of the garage at the ranch.

Do you have a link to this set? They do look cool

I’ll see if I can find it. But I’ll be honest, I’m not crazy about them. They look cool but they’re cheaply made, I don’t think they're worth what I paid for them. Both the original set, and the replacement set I got from the seller have not been sealed properly and have had condensation in them. And I still can’t get my cruise control back into working order, after three sets of resistors wired into the brake lights. I wouldn’t recommend them at this point.

Forgot about my led fog lights. Lol. Before and after. Did those in May. Got them from xenondepot and I love them.

View attachment 66999[/QUOTEwhatbtype of led bulbs did you use. The fan type ? For the fogs.

Wow those pictures are old.... lol. No they were just standard LEDs that plugged into my stock wire pigtails. I can honestly say I don’t even know what bulbs they were. I just remember ordering those from xenondepot.com. But after a couple years I had to replace them as one side was starting to get bad and they didn’t have anything in stock that fit plug and play to my truck. So I ended up having to order LEDs from somewhere on Amazon when I had to replace them.
