  1. Your easiest fix would be to roll your window down prior to turning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. If I recall (its been a few years ago) when I got my truck it came with a dealer logo plate installed up front, I removed it and added the filler panel when I got home. When doing so, I noticed it looked like they had to drill the two holes out for the plate. There was leftover plastic roughings around the 2 screw areas, so I figured they probably had spots marked for the holes if you needed them, but weren't predrilled from factory. plate holder seemed like a standard plastic one you could probably get anywhere.
  3. Mine goes out in the same spots every day, and some new ones every year. Basically, any season the trees have leaf-on conditions, the signal is getting denied by these thin vascular plants. I can drive down the interstate beside a mountain and it will go out, or sometimes start faintly playing another station simultaneously in the background combined with some static. Driving down a country road, signal will fail longer than it works for the most part, unless there is not any canopy covering the road. I also had it go out once and never come back on until the truck was turned off and on. I don't blame any of it on GM though. I have not had the best reception with sirius or xm radios throughout our state for years, not just GM vehicles and both aftermarket and oem radios alike. I think I got the best signal when you had to buy an actual sirius or xm radio to add in your car, before the service came built into them. Those worked in the house and in the car just as well. I've just grown to accept that the satellite signal is sh** in the West Virginia hills.
  4. My flapper put out a high pitch squeak sound when it would go from v4 to v8, it got louder and louder as time passed. A lot of guys remove it or pin it open. I got a tuner and turned afm off, no more flapper to listen to. The ticks from the driver side don't seem to be as frequent as they had been prior to the tuner. Sent from my kayak
  5. I got my set of billys on all four corners for a steal a couple years ago bc another member was running them with a spacer on top of them. Said the ride was horrible, took them off after less than a week. Adding a spacer with the billys above stock setting kind of defeats the purpose of them. Sent from my kayak
  6. Am I the only one that likes the DRL to stay on with the signal? Sent from my kayak
  7. Well, it made it in one piece. Pretty much pumped after that deal! Sent from my kayak
  8. These are the ticket. Worked great for me when I didn't screw a dustcover back on completely. Can bake and reuse them as well as check the meter to see when they're no longer absorbing. I keep them in my gun safe, they work well there too! https://www.amazon.com/Stack-SPAD-60-Desiccant-Long-Gun-Cabinets/dp/B002V3CHKA Sent from my kayak
  9. Scored a brand new oem grille for my 15 with a painted surround, somehow for $260 and free shipping. Time to wait it out, it's coming from Hawaii lol. Sent from my kayak
  10. Haha I don't know where I got Michigan from. Sent from my kayak
  11. nice truck bud, you yakn on the great lakes?
  12. Valentine's Day got me haha. Got busy at work and didn't have time to bid again, got home and went to dinner. Driving home from dinner I remembered I needed to counter, and someone else had already swooped them by then. I would have taken them on a deal but the tails aren't at the top of my list right now. I really want some new wheels, just change my mind from day to day on what I like best. I also struggle with the lift bug, and then I start thinking about lifting and needing wheels to accommodate the lift instead of the level. It's a never ending circle I go through lol. Sent from my kayak
  13. I hit him with 425 lol, countered me at 580, my Move again with 2 offers left lol. Sent from my kayak
  14. I started watching these tails this morning myself haha. EDIT- 1 set left, I might as well send an offer and wait for your harness to come out! Edit Edit- 2 competing offers, I lowballed lol, so I doubt I'll win out.
  15. 10-4, misfire on my part. I'm glad you cleared that up! I'm no lift expert, have been following this thread to educate myself on what route I want to follow, and it kind of confused me as to why it said 33s when you can fit those with a small level.
  16. I Used the 3m 1080 in gloss black on the front gmc emblem and plasti dip on the back emblem about 2 years ago to see how each held up. Obviously the front is going to go through the ringer compared to the back. The vinyl has held up great, no loose edges or bubbles. I have got a couple chips in it now from rocks or pressure wash I'd imagine. The back is fine still, I'd hope so lol only time it gets any action is hauling stuff with the tailgate down.

  17. He's wanting to run 35's, that kit says 33's are the max. Sent from my kayak
  18. Went to adjust and looked through the top hole, I'm not seeing the white adjustment screw where the 2015 was, where is it on the 2016 lights? Sent from my kayak
  19. Took her to the river to fish, no luck, so I took a few skunked pictures of the truck and the crazy warm weather in February. Sent from my kayak
  20. I haven't adjusted any yet, I'll need to go down a touch for the level I have on I'd say. Is it the top screw toward the middle you use to adjust the height? I remember reading about adjusting them a year or two ago but I can't remember. Sent from my kayak
  21. After a closer inspection, I feel like my cutoff line isn't quite as "crisp" or "straight" as some of the pictures I've seen. I'll take some pictures if my phone will show it tonight. The line seems somewhat jagged. I realize here are steps in the lines and it won't be a straight line from side to side. In between the steps it seems like there's some light scatter. Maybe I'm just paranoid and trying to find a reason I got the used set for cheap still, maybe not. Overall performance seems excellent, no complaints there. Sent from my kayak
  22. I signed up for freedom's mailing list, now I just wait for those email deals and it's on! Best prices I've found as well. Sent from my kayak
  23. Any of you guys running a light bar on a Silverado near Princeton West Virginia? Pass a guy almost daily heading to work with one, figured Id see if you were on here lol. Sent from my kayak
  24. So with these you don't need to add a fuse or run the wires across from one side to the other? Just plug in to factory harness and new assembly on either side? Edit* Forgot to mention, Nice work on those! Wish you had made these 2 weeks earlier! Sent from my kayak
  25. I'm going to add some felt in between the seat and the center console, I get a good bit of squeak where that rubs. Sent from my kayak
