Already searched and didn't find anything regarding this grille, anyone have any experience or input?

Trying to get all my add on items purchased before I begin wrapping my truck. Grille trim will be color matched to truck and I want to black out the grille. I am also retrofitting black housing headlights, possible quad retrofit depending on my mood. Lol

I have the same one. Well, not the same EXACT one, but basically the older version of that one. I have the 3160d and you have the 3160g. Main difference is yours has the bigger screen and it's a full color screen. My screen is the old ass black and blue screen. I've had mine for about 2-3 years now and I still don't know how to use all the features on it. But yes, the live data, ABS codes, and airbag codes all come in handy. I checked my Burban and even though my airbag light wasn't on, it pulled a fault code. Said something about "failure to communicate" or something. I reset it and it hasn't come back on since. And I was also able to easily pull the ABS codes on my Burban and my son's 99 Silverado. We both have the same code for a faulty ABS module. I reset mine and it is doing fine, but his KEEPS popping back on every time he drives the truck so we will have to fix his. And live data, I still don't know how to fully use it, but I have had it connected while driving and i could view my coolant temp, transmission temp, engine RPMs, and even vehicle speed. It's good if you want to see how accurate the gauge cluster is. Here's what my screen looks like. Nowhere near as cool as your full color screen. This was a code it was popping a few times right after I replaced my oxygen sensors.

What are all those bubble in the upper left? Are those the failures or possible trouble codes? Other then your P1133? Or do they show all the time? I'm not very patient when it comes to reading directions. I actually got this due to your recommendation @ScottyBoy :D.

Like I said, I STILL don't know what all this this does, or how to fully use it. That being said, I honestly don't know what those mean. But I suspect they are symbols that basically show what vehicle system the code is related to. I think that because those bubbles say things like "Fuel, Misfire, O-2, EGR, etc" and ALL of those systems are related to the oxygen sensors.
I just looked back at the picture you posted of your package, and yours has the SAME bubbles except two of them are red. But the red ones are related to the exhaust, so maybe that's why they are red? I guess we won't fully understand unless we read up more on the instructions and user manual. Lol

that is a insert, you can just slap it on over your existing grill or cut your grill out and give it a much cleaner look

picked up this tahoe a few weeks back, needed brakes bad. 121,000 on it one owner and the rotors look factory, the bracket bolts would not come out with a air gun, broke a ratchet, all 4 corners fought me on the bracket bolts, but i won!! looks las if some jerk off has been slapping new pads in only, front were damn near new looking when they came off.

truck brakes nice and smooth now.

new ish looking front pad.

all old junk, not the top edges are all rusted and not making any contact, a few of the pads were curved over the top edge.

Damn! Those were pretty bad. Gotta love some mechanics, or even worse, the diy's who don't know what they're doing. Where in NJ are you?

im up in Hackensack. no idea wtf some people are thinking, clearly they did pads only for the life time, one owner too.

my brother was looking at some of my pics, hes like where your fog lights? well crap i dont know, so i go looking and found the plugs, ordered new fogs lol

we were just talking bout the billet grills, and i was thinking about color matching the chrome grill to the red body color and then installing the new grills. seen a pic like that and it looks way better to me.

like this, might paint the bumper too to just ditch the chrome all together.

as it sits now. i cant stand the grill. hated it before i bought it too, im really a gmc fan, but yukons were hard to come by fully loaded like this one is.

the regal next to it is mine too, has a load of mods on it. its rather peppy for a little v6 with a blower on it. ill be at e town come spring time with it, finally broke into the 13's spinning like a ******. 45 degree's out at the track dont help none, even with drag radials.
