Well I finally got my color matched parts and 22" rims installed today. Esky 3rd brake light, Yukon rear bumper and repainted the front bumper. I think it looks like a whole new hoe now! The new rear glass that the brake light was attached to is missing the tabs for the rear defroster connectors. What could I use as donor tabs to solder onto what's left of the exposed tabs? Ideas on what donor metal from hardware store might do the trick?
Forgot to install one more thing....

PICS :yuno:

$100?? Sweet! Should only need to purchase the tune. $200.. IIRC

ETA: I think the tune is $325..
I see that now , I swore it was a little cheaper before too. I noticed the core charge was for the pcm which is not what this is for.

I installed my new to me(used) 22" rims, and tires. What do you think? I like the way they show off the red calipers more. I also installed my old chrome bumper for a body painted Yukon Denali bumper, reinstalled the repainted front bumper that had rock chipped badly, and swapped my 3rd brake light and glass for the Esky 3rd brake light! What a day! I need to come up with some conductive tabs to solder onto the Esky rear glass for the defroster, as the old ones were somehow broken off.

Any ideas on what would make a good donor piece of metal? I was thinking some aluminum gutter flashing cut into tabs might do the trick.

I thought you could buy new tabs.. hmm

Here you go: https://www.frostfighter.com/defroster-tabs-uni-clip.htm (2300-URX is the one you want I believe)

This is who you need to order the correct material from anyway. This stuff works! Not that useless crap from the auto parts store.
