If it is of any interest after selling my 2015 LTZ with the non-Bose and getting a 2016 Yukon with the Bose setup, the Bose system is MUCH better. After 6 months of the non-Bose going to the Bose is a huge improvement. I could see sitting in the dealer lot for 5 minutes not noticing it but after living with this the Bose is so much better. Not trying to ruffle feather, just my opinion.

Question on the Katzkins. Did they get any "tighter" than when you first installed them? I am looking considering some but they seem a little loose. No offense meant.

In V4 mode the sound was very tinny, like ping ping ping. It is gone now. I hope it is gone for good. It is crazy how different the truck is now. The truck is running like a sewing machine. I am nervous to jinx my luck. I have my radio off most of the time waiting to hear the crap some back. But so far so good.

They first adjusted my exhaust and the vibration went away for 300 miles. This time they replaced whatever amount is needed to replace the flap valve in the rear. I have a little more than 300 miles now with fingers crossed it stays fixed.

2015 5.3 LTZ I have a tread but the search engine here does not seem to find it. I have what I quickly tuned tuned in as an exhaust vibration. GM tried to fix it early on but it came back. My complaint was a noise and vibration at 30-40mph under light load. What I did not realize is how much vibration I was feeling at all other speeds and loads. GM recently replaced my exhaust. Holly crap. I did not realize how much I would recognize the improvements it would make all ALL other speeds. I cannot hear or feel the difference in V4 any more. I don't feel the throttle pedal vibrate at all speeds. When I accelerate hard I don't feel like an injector is bad past 3k RPM. Seriously the engine shook. Honestly I keep looking at my dash to see if I am in V4 or V8. The truck is smooth like a new truck is supposed to be. The drone is gone, small vibrations that I would not have tried to complain about are gone. I have no idea what is different about the new exhaust. I posted this because in the Yukon forum they say a new exhaust is coming to fix the vibration problems. I used to hate this truck, it is really nice to drive now. I keep my radio off in disbelief of the improvement.

I have been looking into this. Since the 10 inch was released Maestro also released the i-data link module and it seems you can use it on the X008U. So you could also retain much of the integration functions. At the end of the day the only reason I can think to install an aftermarket HU is to get clean pre-amp outputs without taking the factory speakers outs and converting them. That or if you had a 4 inch screen. I love how nice the 10 inch solution is, the price is just too much.

Can you buy replacement brackets for the 6 inch rectangular factory steps? Does anyone know if this would allow 2500 steps to work on a 1500? From the looks of it the passenger brackets are different to accommodate the diesel exhaust. Thanks

Craigslist. The place to be is So Cal, tons of take offs. Waiting for my next business trip... Those are clean looking rims. They also came on Suburbans and Tahoe's, seems like mostly in 2014.

I just removed my factory power folding tow mirrors, including the original door harnesses, and posted them in the for sale section if anyone is interested. They were factory optioned on my truck. Thanks

How long does it take to change the settings on these? Do you have to remove them or is it simple?

Seems the introductory street price is $3500 at multiple web sites. I love this in dash solution, price is just crazy, nearly 10% of the truck. That is hard to swallow. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/alpine-10-built-in-gps-cd-dvd-built-in-bluetooth-built-in-hd-radio-apple-ipod-ready-in-dash-deck-black/4774904.p?id=1219817781962&skuId=4774904

I noticed this driving home form the dealer with 10 miles on mine. I just figured there was a snap someone forgot to put in. Interesting to see this is an issue... I forgot to mention it during my recent warranty trip. I wont make a special trip for it though.

I cannot confirm these are the correct Bose dash speakers but they seem to be. It is not my listing. http://www.ebay.com/itm/231750900417?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
