[Tahoewhat]

nice pics, are those 6000K HID's?

well the fogs r 5k and the lows r 6k but i have ordered another set of 5k h11 for lows and going to put the 6k's in the reverse lights. i am just wondering when i get the new kit can i just put the new 5k bulbs in the lows or do i have to replace the ballast as well.

Nice truck man, when did you shave the handles?

well i bought the truck in late october of 2009 then 3 weeks later put it in my buddys shop n got it back 1st week of jan. also u cant tell by those pics but we repainted the whole truck with an artic ice in the clear so when the lights at night hit it or the sun hits it looks like a bunch of diamonds r in the paint. gets more attention then i could even explain. also the 22 inch rims have the artic ice in the lip we painted white as well. i will try to get some pics up soon once the sun ever comes back out here.

[iwaslowr]

Truck looks clean.

How do you get in?? Lol, I like it and especially the sound of the arctic white paint. I wish I could get mine custom painted. I did take it off-roading in the snow yesterday though!

But seriously, how the heck do you get in your truck if you shaved the handles? I guess I'm missing something lmao.

... But seriously, how the heck do you get in your truck if you shaved the handles? I guess I'm missing something lmao.

Typically shaved door vehicles have the locks welded in an unlocked state, and the doors are opened by remote control activation of a heavy duty silenoid which simulates pulling the door handle. An additional spring loaded door popper can help with pushing the door out from just beyond it's closed position.

Perhaps the OP will post a vid of how he enters the Tahoe....

 

[jdub5256]

pretty much just like iwaslower has stated except i just removed door locks all together and pretty much the truck actually thinks that the woutside handle is being pulled everytime i get into the truck. what i did was took the handle off then used a solinoid and attached it to the the part that the extirior handle pulling rod used to connect to and the solinod is a 2 wire lead one for ground other for power. so the power wire i just tapped into the unlock wire on the driver door so everytime i hit unlock once on the remote the driver door opens did the same on front pass door so if i double click the remote pass door popps. now for the back doors i just reach my hand to the back and open myself. yeah i will get some video up soon when weather breaks its 16 degrees out right now burrrr.

That's ******* sick! haha I have never heard of such a thing. The closest I have heard to that is automatic lambo door kits but those are insanely expensive.

 

[macky]

looks good. as much as i hate the snow, it is fun to drive in sometimes. lets see some pics of the paint too

 

[Zed 71]

Looks good and the shaved handles are sick. I like driving in the snow.

From the pics your lows look like 5000k and your fogs look 6000k. Are your fogs higher wattage?

 

[DwDrummer]

Looks good, love the snow cowl hood!

 

[jdub5256]

haha yeah snow cowl hood r the cheapest way to go too.

actually the lows are 6000k and fogs are 5000k

oh and by the way this is my first HOE and we ended up having in some areas 1 foot of snow and i never took it out of 2wd these trucks are awsome. i was even going through my side field just rolling through it with no problem l love a hoe that loves to play in the white stuff
