Just found out about this mod. To do this to my 2011 silverado ltz are the part numbers still, Heated black wheel without wood - 22947767 clock spring SIR coil - 25966964 harness - 25807858 - And is this still necessary to get?

IMO....Im not sure painting over rust is a good idea either. Once rust starts the only way to stop it is to wire brush it down to bare metal, and cover it with a NON- drying product like fluid film or similar. I personally use "Rust Check coat and protect" that come in a green spray can from Canadian tire. Dealers are putting a rubber based rust protector on from the factory that drys, and this is the worst stuff you can put on your frame. Once is cracks ( and it will happen) it traps moisture in and rust will form and spread like wild-fire because is never gets a chance to dry out. I seen it first hand on my old 2002 s-10 which i purchaced second hand with 80,000kms on it, and underneath the rubber undercoating was scales of rust the length of the frame.

My truck came with a paste like coating that rubs right off stock, but the dealers love to put an undercoating on top that dries hard and is absoute junk. It eventually cracks, lets moisture in behind and rusts out frames twice as quick. I cant understand why anyone in there right mind would use the stuff. Rust check just washes off the next time you drive through a rain storm. I use stuff in a spray can that does not dry, goes on like fluid film and tacks up. This is what you want.
