I just did this last week.. I found a kit on eBay.

I was looking at those, but didn't see a kit for the Suburban. That and with the set that I bought I did all the regular domes, puddle lamps, and had one left over for the dome in the 81 rabbit.

I did manage to give the truck a bath today.

Well I drove it back home from Florida and was lucky to have to change my driver side hub assembly in Virginia. Drove through North Carolina with the hub in 2 pieces untill I noticed that it sounded like my caliper had seized and my brakes were gone. Luckily for my wife and kids I always carry a toolbag with stuff I would need, pulled into an autozone and was able to buy and change out old hub and check brakes on both sides in about an hr and a half.

Hey, at least he did not try it and say opps and come in and say we have a problem. Honesty that i would respect from them. Here forget it, they would of pulled it right in and then blamed me for the damage.

What did i do.

Looked at all the brown sut all over my tahoe. Looks like it rained mud. (suppose to be from mexico volcano or something.)

Changed out both seat heater pads for the denali drivers seat......and still don't get any heat! BIG OL CRAP!!
Thought I had figured it out when I pulled the back rest one and it had a burnt up spot in it, the bottom one looked practically brand new!
Looks like I'll be checking some more stuff out now that I know which plugs are the seat heater ones!

Well I had to spend the Christmas Eve under the tahoe laying on ice and snow cause my control arm relocation bracket bolts seamed to work there way loose. Santa didn't help. Come to find out all 3 bolts on passenger side were gone and 2 on drivers side were also gone.

Finally finished up replacing suspension. 2" bt drop spindles in front, 4" lowering springs in rear (with spacer for 3" drop), bt shocks all around, front and rear DJM sway bars, new moog ball joints, new moog outer tie rod ends....think that's about it. Gonna wait and see how it settles out and may remove spacer. Now have to get an alignment and the resistors to stop the code.

Thanks to Tony for getting the parts to me and for helping out with questions!

cleaned the insides out of the headlights using denatured alcohol and DI water. stupid things had hazed over inside

of course didn't get all the water out unfortunately, so blew a DRL in 1 side, and a blinker in the other. $13 later and now I have all working bulbs and re-dried the heads

much brighter light now though with the haze gone

x2 Ive heard it's pretty easy to do the headlamp lenses, but the DTR/turn portion seems glued together....

super easy to clean the haze out...not so much to get all the water out. I had to use a blowdryer for 10-15 minutes each headlight.

I can't believe GM/Caddy made such a convoluted headlight! WTH is with that design?

That sucks Boozer. Good thing the one side didn't fall off, that would have sucked. Crazy the bolts fell completely out. Glad to hear you caught it before something happened. I almost had the same thing happen 2 months ago. Even with nylon lock bolts, they managed to come loose and started making all kinds of noise. Used some locktite on them, hopefully solves the problem.
I was thinking about writing a thread letting others know to possibly look out for that. But really didn't think anyone else would have the same problem, just me. Lol, some reason they must like to work loose.

Tinted the amber section of my headlights but I don't think I like it. I need to give it a few days and decide.
