Ok, I just can't deal any longer with the stock bed being bare. I have used the search option and found some good stuff but I was hoping maybe someone out there had a picture of a silver birch metallic GMT900 with either stainless steel/chrome bedrails and or the plastic gm bedcaps. Personally I think the rails look great on the darker colored trucks and I had them on my Pewter 02 silverado. If anyone has any pics please post them up. If not I'm open to suggestions as well. Thanks!

I had the side bedrail caps installed on mine and then had the sprayed in bedliner "under the rails" as I liked that look much better. Not sure this pic is going to provide as much detail as you want. My 2005 Sierra came with the plastic bed rail covers as standard. GM has finally realized they can cut some of this off and sell as accessories and make more $$.

The GM bed rail caps are nice. Worth every cent. Nice truck Ryan. I need to get my Tractor Supply toolbox on my new truck but I think the hook points are a little different than they were on my 2005 Sierra due to the change in the GM bed.

Thanks for the pics so far, it has definitely helped. All the trucks look great but after seeing the pics I'm kinda leaning against the bedcaps. I load 99% of the stuff I haul from the rear and rarely reach over the side of the truck. I'm not a big fan of the GM bedrails b/c of the black pieces on the ends. That being said I also don't like the putco brand rails b/c of the metal difference. I had ICI rails on my 02 and they looked good as new when I let her go in January. I wish I had taken them off the truck but it's too late now. If anyone has any pics of just regular chrome of stainless steel bedrails that would be great. Also, has anyone seen the new westin oval bedrails? I haven't found anyone locally that has them and the only pic I can find online is with them on a Ford :dunno:

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
