Switch Question

Ext cab vs crew cab....are the rear power window switches/mechanisms the same size

 

Before I trade in my ext cab all terrain I want to swap the "brushed alluminum" dash and window switch peices with the cheesy "wood grain" pieces from my new avalanche.

 

The only pieces that I am not sure if they are the same are the rear window switches

 

thx

To me, one faux finish plastic panel is as "cheesy" as the next.

Yeah, I'm curious too, why are you trading already? Didn't you just get that AT and doesn't it have the 6.2 6-speed?!?

didnt realize how non baby friendly the back seat of an ext cab is and the massive discount on a new 09 avalanche was also hard to pass up

Well its either wood grain or brushed alluminum...what would you prefer? The wood grain to me look so cheesy and cheap

Yea Id have to agree with you there.

Ahh both my kids grew up in the back of my extended cab. I always thought there was plenty of room. Also the truck was lifted and was super easy getting the kids in the seats due to the extra height.

 

But if you can swing the trade, then more power to ya... the extra room is nice.

That was the reason I ended up buying my Suburban. I was looking at many ex cab trucks, but a rear-facing baby seat would NOT fit in the back of an ex cab. I was looking for a crew cab or Avalanche so I'd have more back seat room but ended up getting a great deal on my Suburban. I do regret it every once in a while since I don't have an actual bed. But I can still tow just as much, and I can use my trailer if I ever wanna haul anything that you would haul in a truck bed.

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
