Hi

This some pic's of my work on my tahoe I started with the front to see where it will take me,

So please I need your advices and help, more pics will follow :)

The front:
I painted the bumber only reused the accessories and I want to replace the old lights that was fitted by the previous owner (it looks chepo) the problem I very confused and the only front lights I found they are stock by TYC and they are not so clear! As this and yes I am running HID for low beam only (it was low and high beam before)

Before

The rear:
I didn't do any thing yet! I found the previous owner added few things I am planning to move out or renew,
(I took the 4X4 off too)

Now:

O ok... Yea these fans were usually available on 3500 models... They serve as a push fan... The wiring is triggered by relays and such... If ur tahoe is equipped with this feature (probably isnt), the wiring and fuse can be found in ur under hood fuse compartment marked aux for auxiliary fan... I plan on doing the same to my Tahoe for the a/c... U could trigger this fan by tapping into the a/c compressor... This way wen the compressor turns on it will trigger the fan...

Hahaha I didn't like the halos because they don't spread the light like the stok light using HID I found out by accident :rolleyes:
