What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[pwtr02ss]

im really tempted now, that is seems its a clock spring and 2 wires to have a warm wheel. Ive done wheels before and they arent too bad, hardest part will be the airbag without it exploding in my face

so denalis have heated wheels too? not sure im sold on the wood surround of the esky wheels

That's it. I bought the harness from @cmatt and I highly recommend it. It looks factory and makes it a plug and play. Shoot him a PM for the cost if you're interested

Also, Denali's have wood trim as well

My 2012 XL Denali has a heated wheel and it's nice. But it's a wood-trimmed wheel on the front, so only the backside of it heats up. There are also hot spots that get uncomfortably warm where the wheel spokes meet the rim. It's still really nice to have on a cold day, but I think a non wood-trimmed wheel would be more comfortable.

if any of you are using onstar it sunsets 12-31, active subscribers will still have app access but onstar in the vehicle will cease to function
this is because 2g & 3g are adio's

well that parts a bummer. the ltz silvy im driving is all leather and the whole thing gets toasty warm. i love it.

I swapped out my heated Denali wood wheel for an all leather one for an LTZ a few years ago when new one's were still available. It feels so much nicer. It's thicker also. It has all the same buttons that my OE Denali wheel had.

I really like the heated leather wheel in my 2015.

I really want a heated wheel. I see RA is out of stock again. And I have empty pockets.

Does anyone use a wax or spray protectant on their wheels to help protect the finish?

Figured I'd start putting something on them to help protect them since they're new.

The only stuff I've ever used on wheels was for polished aluminum wheels. Mother's product in a can, a paste I'd put on using one of those sponge balls on a drill. Mostly a polish.

My new wheels seem to be powder coated with a machined face and have a clear coating over it.

If they have a clear coat there’s nothing to do except keep them washed.

No wax or ceramic coating applications?

I use Wizard’s Mist n Shine on the truck and my wheels often. Just keeps everything all spiffy.

maybe

Or maybe they only work in certain temp range?

no pretty sure they work anytime you press the button regardless of the temperature, they are on a timer which I believe is 10 minutes and then they automatically shut off until the button is pressed again

Yeah sounds legit. I would think that would be mentioned in the owners manual which it isn't. So I did some testing and now I def have the driver side working but not the pass side. And for sure for future reference for anybody the marked wires in the attached picture are on the mirror plug and for the heated circuit. The pos does come on and off the the rear window defogger switch. And the neg is a constant ground.

Freezing my ass out there tonight so hopefully tomorrow I can check the pass side circuit.

TAG heated, mirror

I mean if you wanna you could. The instructions from intro on my billets that have a brushed and clear coat on the centers say to just wash them carefully with a microfiber cloth so you don’t haze the clear. It’s pretty much the same as the clear coat on the paint so I guess you could treat them the same. I’ve heard good and bad stories on ceramic coating wheels depending on the brand of ceramic, how it’s applied either pro or at homie, the type of wheel finish etc. -enough that I’m not willing to chance a bad experience because no matter if it’s good or bad, the results last a long long time. Maybe if I paid someone that guarantees it I would. Then if they ruin my wheels I know where they work.

That’s not very nice calling the black wire a piece of shit.

I put wax on my wheels. Chrome or coated. Helps for a little while.
