  1. I am curious to see how this goes. I have a FAC G4E. I like it. I have some leaks that I can't seem to get rid of. But luckily it is mostly car wash issues. Since we don't get a lot of rain in PHX.
  2. I did it the Chevy CAI for the same reason. I am happy with it.
  3. I am at a year and 3 weeks. I am coming up on 16K
  4. I didn't on mine. I didn't see the point. I just cranked really good on the stock ones. I really haven't had a issue. I went through 3 different phone mounts (mostly crappy vent clips) when I saw another member here with the Panavise and ProClip set up and decided it was the way to go. I am very happy with it.

  5. I did it to install a Panavise mount also. It is very hard the first time. Make you have some of those plastic trim removing tools. The clips will be very tight to break free the first time. It feels like you could crack or break the bezel at times. And if you aren't slow and patient you just might. It was scary when the tougher clips finally broke free. Upon subsequent removals to make adjustments some of them were much easier to break free. Right tools for the job is key. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I have had mine coming up on a year for mine and I am very happy with it. Even though I get some leaks after a car wash. I can't get it totally sealed up for some reason. Luckily in PHX we don't see a lot of rain so I can't really complain.
  7. Set up an account on camelcamelcamel.com Then copy the link for what you want on Amazon in CCC and set your desired price and wait for the email when the price hits your criteria. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Love my Amp Steps! There when you need them and gone when you don't.
  9. He must have a great claims adjuster or one that needs glasses. Where is all the white paint on the front damage?
  10. There are some large gaps in the front of these K2 beds. I filled mine with weather stripping and then covered it with a black water proof calk or epoxy. I had some bad "car wash leaks" after installing my F-A-C G4 Elite. It helped a lot.
  11. So the 3 hole is enough to get a good grip to close them. The site recommends 4 hole for larger vehicles and trucks. Thanks in advance.
  12. Nothing too exciting. I have been looking for this type of solution since April when I picked up my truck. My previous vent clips/mounts that worked on my Avalanche horizontal vents didn't cut the mustard on the 2016 vertical vents. Plus in Phoenix in the summer you really need your FULL VENT!! So I will be ready for summer next year. Thanks to pgamboa for sharing his similar project a few pages back.

  13. May I ask what Brand/Model it is. I have been looking for something similar. Price? Thanks.
  14. It is just the Chevrolet "Performance Exhaust" - Part # 23462045 I thought about doing the Catback Duel out the side but just decided to keep it simple, and not void warranty, but get a little more growl.
  15. Did the first oil change. While it was in I had the Chevy CAI & Performance Muffler installed. Sounds like a truck now and not a Prius. Love the growl it has. It is gonna be a trade off or wash on the 2 mpg that it is suppose to help. I love putting my foot in it a little more now. So the increase will probably be non-existent. ;)
  16. This is for the right to left shift and clunk that happens when turning.
  17. The seat can still be adjusted any way you want. It does not affect the rails/tracks. The clamps just keep the seat in place horizontally.
  18. I'll make it easy for you. But it is pretty much mentioned about every 3rd page.
  19. Redline 60" That sucker is bright. I picked Opt7 because of a recommend here. My accessory dealer sold a couple of other brands and thought he could get me one. He couldn't so I bought it on Amazon and they installed it. I have seen a few trucks driving around with LED Bars and I have to say I don't think anyone can touch the Opt7. Clean and super bright!
  20. I really like my G4 Elite. I am still having a little leakage in the front also. But much better than right after the install. I don't think my installers had very much experience with that cover, so I might have been able to do a better job, but they were doing my AMPs and Opt7 so I just let them do it all. Since I am in Phoenix my biggest issue with leakage really is a car wash. Not like we get more than about 15 days of precipitation a year. So I just live with the way it is. It is probably 90% water tight.
  21. Very true. I find myself washing my DOBM '16 all the time. Curious. Which Autonation did you buy yours at? And you have already swapped out color matched door handles?
  22. I am curious, did Chevy/GMC dump time shift in the 2016's? When I was researching and configuring my order I was very excited when I read about this technology as I was coming from an '07 Avalanche. From what I can tell I do not have this capability in my LTZ.
  23. Yes. I got some weather stripping and stuffed it in those holes and then covered it with a black silicone sealant. Since I have a factory spray liner you can hardly notice my fix unless you are used to seeing daylight through those holes. It has worked out good for me. I still have a little leakage with my G4 Élite, but this cut down on A LOT of it. I have added some additional weather stripping on places where I could see light around the rails close to the cab. It's not perfect, but I live in PHX so rain in not my major concern, it is more the car wash run, and even then I always wash it when I am not hauling cargo back there so it will be dry by the time I need to use it. But like a said a little weather stripping and silicone will seal those holes right up. I'll get a picture an post it up. The passengers side had a bigger hole or gap on my bed to it took a little more weather stripping to fill the hole.
