    HD grilles are about 30% taller than 1500's.

    Western...you are right about plug and play. You have the existing wiring for power seats....so drop the new seats and go. The heating function will require some improvising. I too would try to use the oe switch panel. Keep us updated on how you got the heated seating resolved. Good luck

    A local guy has power leather seats working in a Reg cab WT...I do know he did wire off of the bcm for power function. His WT has retrofitted steering wheel with controls, leather power seats with console and signal mirrors. Not sure if his WT came with OE power window and locks..but he has them as well.

    They will work

    unfortunately not...but it is about 3/4" off the ball joint bolt end. It is pretty much now flush with the ball joint nut.

    THis....had to cut end off to run 17" cookies.

    Shiro, Your list is spot on. You will need to remove two metal nut tabs (not sure what they are called) from your inner grille support and place them on a new spot on same support. The new 2016+ grille lower bolts to a different area. Just unclip and place in new spot. It already has a provision for them. Also...you will need the 2016 bumper brackets...hopefully you got them with the bumper. Fogs are plug and play. Headlights will require re-pinning the OE harness onto a 2016 connector (ebay).

    What is the current issue? Have you been using HID can bus/error eliminators?

    Sierra X, Since you have existing AT/SLT led lighting, you will not need a Gen5 harness. You will need new 2016 style connectors (see ebay link in thread) to fit the new 2016 headlights. After you buy the new style connectors, you can take apart your 2015 headlight connectors and repin (re-arrange) the wiring into the new connector like Zmnypit did in post #135 in this thread (see his picture). Reassemble and you should be done...Note, the issue with the DRL not cutting out when signaling is still being sorted out.

    You should be good with just new 2016 style connectors ( ebay link in prev posts ) and a repin of your existing headlight wiring....and a set of new headlights of course.

    Nixon, I am diggin your grille. Did you just have the face of the grille painted? I see some chrome in the inner area..or is it just the light reflection?
  12. ricker6869
    Dbeto....Thanks for the schematic. looks pretty straight forward to me now.
  13. ricker6869
    zm, Could this be made to work on an SLE model? Do the SLT harnesses have additional wiring for the LED DRL,s? Dbeto's silverado conversion basically went NON-LED headlights to 2016 LED DRL headlights with only repin correct?
  14. ricker6869
    Fishlessam, can you give us a little more detail on your conversion? Thanks

    Looks great... I will be doing the same to my 2014 sierra.. I am waiting on the fog lamps and a bit of time. Sierra upgrade to 2016 is less involved.... just bumper, grille, headlights,fog lights and radiator cover.
  16. ricker6869
    They are out there...search every day...I did....I did score a near mint set for $605. I also picked up a 2016 front end for cheap to swap for an updated look. I am still on the hunt for some 2016 fog light trim pieces.

    For those still looking. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sierra-2016-Headlamps-Pair-OEM-/272285226362?hash=item3f6576d57a:g:AWIAAOSwiYFXFQ6B&vxp=mtr

    I agree...it was a cop out from the dealer.

    Its a risk we all take when we mod or tune. The saying goes...you gotta pay to play !. I along with many have done these mods...no issues yet..I did not use diodes..just jumper wires. I feel your $$pain..but the true mistake was not removing the diode before going in for electrical issues. Goodluck.

    Looks awesome !

    The cargo lamp houses 2 bulbs. In conjuction with your backup lights you will need 4 bulbs.
  24. ricker6869
    FYI: For those interested these are really good bulbs. They can now be had for ~20 for a 2 pack or ~38 for a 4 pack from Philips direct. Or my local pep boys carries these 2 packs for ~20 bucks too.

    Never understood this decal....Folks...you did not build this ..unless you work all positions at the GM assembly line.
