MACHO's 2011 Tahoe Build Thread

[Jmat]

Thanks bro! You were asking about the LED pattern of the g4's in the other thread-- they aren't the same as OEM. All the rows light when using the turn signals unlike OEM where half of it lights. Check out the video and you'll see what I mean

Thanks for pointing that out Macho. Checked out your vid and also found my answer there. So are you going to finish off your LED treatment with LED plate lights?

Oh sweet. I almost think I'd go darker or keep them red. Hmm, decisions decisions. I kinda like the idea of red calipers to accent the brake lights too.

I would like the g4 more if it lit up like the esky light

Hey Bro..... how so do you mean?

[Blazed]

The entire g4 lights up all the time.
On the esky light the outside row lights up until you press the brake then all three rows light up

 

[Goodinblack]

Ohhh right. Hmmm.

[MACHO]

Yup exactly Blazed. I like that on the g5's/esky OEM too. It just wasn't worth it to switch out appliqués and install resistors on the OEM or get the g5's for such minor differences. Plus I'm not trying to make it look like an escalade. I just like the LED look. The g4's flow really nice with the Tahoe look IMO.

 

[Goodinblack]

I don't like this thread any more.

JK.

[Blazed]

Oh yah by no means would I ever change out my appliqués or get the g5s I just wish the g4 lit up like them because I think it looks classier

 

[Goodinblack]

X2 ^^^^

However, as I wish not to get new appliques....... and want LEDs ......this is it.

I also considered long and hard about buying smooth Yukon lights and putting LED bulbs in them......

However..... after buying the lights, smoking them, and buying 60.00 worth of vleds in them.... the back of the truck still would not be lit up bright, and I would still have close to what G4s cost.

Dang it Jarin.
