  1. I'd really like to thank TinkeringFox for the awesome video and information. Have everything installed and functioning beautifully. 36,000 lumens on that light bar. I had purchased the OEM Sierra's RED switch by jumping the gun , but I actually think the Blue & Red match the instruments cluster pretty well. I'll take some pictures of the buttons illuminated later and where I installed my relay. I had a slightly different install.
  2. Another brilliant idea, Definitely looking into wiring some additional lights, and the high beam option sounds like a great idea as they should never be on during traffic anyway, unless someone forgets to turn their high beams off headed towards me, which they are in for a surprise lol. I also plan to hang two rear facing LED ORLs for additional reverse lighting when trail driving / out in the dark. Pondering on how I desire to have those controlled , as I don't want them to be on the reverse circuit and turn on in my local grocers parking lot , and blind the masses. Thinking of using the spare locations near the traction control switch. Anyone know where to purchase those Aux switches, proper name / terminology for those switches?
  3. Once I've accumulated all the components, I think I'm going to tackle the OEM switch with BCM and aftermarket relay integration wiring first. Then get the lighting feed completely in place and leave fuse out. Then install my fixtures. Hopefully all goes well. I greatly appreciate all the input and knowledge here. I attached a few images on the trucks current state. Doesn't appear to have much done, but it's been a busy month. It was a 2016 LT Z71 crew cab. Already replaced headlights and taillights with LTZ, Weathertech Floormats, Weathertech mud flaps, removed silverado rear and side emblems, replaced side with Z71 emblems, replaced both bowties with black, replaced oversized antenna with 4", K&N intake filter, new black hitch pin, repainted hitch , had the hood, fenders, grille, front bumper, and tailgate repainted, Z71 license plate frame, Go Rhino sport bar, every exterior lamp replaced with LED. I have Weathertech window visors / deflectors in transit, as well as (5) Rigid Industries Q Series LED fixtures for the sport bar [ (2) diffused , (3) flood]. I know I've names some dinky items, but it's all added up, so I thought I'd mention them. Hopefully I'll have an update on the sport lights shortly. Thank you
  4. I appreciate the response, I went ahead and snagged a set , doesn't hurt to own a pair for the future. They are eerily similar to my MC4 crimp tool, which is for photovoltaic installation connectors , so I may already own a tool for the project, duplicates never hurt. I found the exact part number for the crimps on Amazon (25 pieces) , no image though, hopefully they are the correct female ends.
  5. The picture I posted was simply my existing switch, I believed it to be slightly different than others existing switches on this thread, prior to replacement. I do have fogs and did purchase the switch from TinkeringFox's video.
  6. I believe I answered my question about the Delphi crimps. Is the second image the correct tool , used in the video?
  7. I've run through a few pages on this thread, and watched the video a few times. I have a few questions if you don't mind. First simply being what is the part information for the Delphi (hopefully the correct name) crimp / ends, I have the number for the JST from the video being SAITS-A03T-M064, is this correct? Are they the same for the Delphi? Also, is there a link or part number to the Delphi crimp tool, or will any crimp tool be sufficient? Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I jumped the gun and purchased the Red surround switch and later verified mine are Blue (2016 Silverado 1500 LT). I wanted to attach an image of my existing switch as it doesn't resemble most on here.
