Looking to replace my license plate lights with these:

Anyone have experience with this seller or this product? I'm only concerned with it flashing or throwing an error code.

 

Thanks

Josh

Vled is where you go for a good quality light 51f1703a252b0c39128c34346eeb4032.jpg

My lights from day one where fine, compared to the projector style headlights. My main issue was the yellow looking color of the stock bulbs but after I changed to the Phillips Crystal Vision I can ho

Thanks again the Phillips 194 arrived yesteday and can confirm they work perfectly in a 2017 for plate lights. Eagerly awaiting the two sets of Phillips 921 and 1N4004 diodes to arrive.

Excellent, thanks. Do you think these would work well? No error codes, no fitment issues, and bright enough?

I got 7443 amber and red for the Denali (front/rear), error codes right away. only solution I know of is to add the load resistors

which I will NOT splice into the wiring harness. Maybe there will be a direct swap with 2016 Sierra, which suppose

to have both LED rear and headlights...

I have those on mine. They were actually better than the 194 VLEDS I bought.

Those will not work in the license plate lights, you want bulbs that have diodes all the way around on the sides. Below are the VLEDs you want for the license plate:

Or you can get the Astars on the other page. I have both bulbs-one set in my truck and the other in the wife's Honda. The Astar license plate bulbs were just as good if not better for half the price.

Thanks for the input. Are the Astars too bright? As in, do they throw weird shadows on the back of the truck because they're too bright for that spot? Also, did you experience any error codes when you put them in?

 

Thanks again

These work great. I bought my reverse, license, and cargo lights from this seller. Arrived within 2-3 days. Philips Extreme are great bulbs, throw ZERO errors

Hi guys, new to sight. Hoping you can help me out. I know nothing about mechanics, so in need of advice.

I have 2014 Sierra SLT, with the LED accent lights and Halogen protectors (I think). I really don't like the yellow/Amber tint of the headlights.

I understand the stock lights are size 9012LL. From my half ass research, it seems like that has more light output than the 9006. But it seems like a lot of people replace their stock lights with sylvania ultras or ZXEs.

If I switch to one of these bulbs, I will get the "white lights" i want but will they be lower powered lights or less light output?

And am I correct in thinking I can plug a 9006 bulb into my 9012 socket without any mods? Once you have to cut or trim anything, your already far beyond my skill set.

And any other lights you would recommend for me. Again just want white light without tint and no modifications.

Thank you

was changing out my cargo lamp (finally) upon removing the screws .. i dropped one of them ....

 

the odds of it falling smack in the middle between cab and bed have to small right ... and odds that it lands in that middle area that connects the cab and bed have to be even smaller ..

 

welp im out of a screw so my cargo lamp is snapped in and screwed in with one screw. Other than that the lights look good. My truck is now 80% (i would say) LED lighting. Just need high beams and fogs

Is that an LED or standard bulb? Nevermind I found some!

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.

      It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
