Are the 2014 and 2015 Sierra 1500 using the same bulds? I looked at the chart above at the beam High/Low Beams - HIR-2 (9012 LL) but most web sites do not list this part and I do not see a cross reference. What am i missing?

I am looking for these. Anyone know where I can purchase them? I have not found these diode LED fog bulbs. I am interested in trying these over the cree led bulbs.

You can buy from the link you posted. And I'm pretty sure there's some in the marketplace.

There is no "Add to Cart" like with other bulbs. Guessing they are out, I would have to call them.

I was able to add them... I am using Firefox browser and clicked the cart button below the little airplane and truck.

Thank you! Your right, I must need to update my Safari browser. Just ordered those fog lights and the phillips X-treme backup bulbs. I'll start with these before upgrading to HID high & lows next.

Yes the 2014 and 2015 Sierra use the same 9012 head light bulb. It is a combo Hi/Low beam bulb.

Does anyone know if the 2016 bulbs are the same? I would like to convert the rear license plate and reverse lights to LED.

For the standard tails (non LED), the specs are identical to the 14 and 15 models.

 

The new LED tail lights though might use a different reverse bulb, I'm not sure.

Hey guys, long time reader, first time poster. Thanks for all the info in this thread. Came in handy a few times.

 

I really like LED upgrades. For my daily, I bought a cheap kit for the interior online, then found what a difference a good quality brand makes. For my new truck, I had a head start with knowledge.

 

So, I opted for the Philips Xreme 6000k ultra white. For my first rounds of upgrades, I did the license plate lights, the cargo lights, 3rd brake light, and reverse lights. These bulbs are around $27/piece, hence why that's all I'm doing for now.

 

Very happy with the results. My truck has the factory bed lights, and the upgraded cargo lights really set it off.

FYI: For those interested these are really good bulbs. They can now be had for ~20 for a 2 pack or ~38 for a 4 pack from Philips direct. Or my local pep boys carries these 2 packs for ~20 bucks too.

I'd just like to do the cargo and reverse lights. So 3 bulbs, correct?

The cargo lamp houses 2 bulbs. In conjuction with your backup lights you will need 4 bulbs.

So I bought these.

Are they as good as the ones in the picture above? I could not find any other 921 Philips LED's at the local Lordco and just not sure if they will be as bright as possible. My intent is to wire the reverse lights into the cargo lights (with the diode) so I have more light when hitching up the trailer in the dark.

 

Thanks.

    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
