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.

 

 

Fat fingered, and shot from the hip.

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.

    • 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 
    • Common Sense Assembly   Your driveline is forgiving of the occasional mistake. It will even often forgive the random serious blunder. But it will not forgive a continuous bad habit.      What? Not everything needs to be a five thousand word essay.       
    • We drove about 15 minute east today to visit a friend and saw a steep increase in price in the same county. About 50 cents a gallon steepper. 
    • Sure about that? A degree wheel and a dial indicator would lower your degree of assurance in that statement. 😉    It why we have offset keys and dialable timing sprockets. Just say'n.... I've built a few and have never seen one "On the money". 
    • I will admit I haven't experimented much with pressure drops beyond the numbers I put in and part of that is that the numbers I used are fairly low and then found out it would trigger regardless at that 35 psi. Having said that I had tried before had changed the placard pressures and being that I have a 1 ton set to 80 on the placard for the rear I believe it triggered close to 60, the front I don't recall now for sure but thought maybe it could get close to 45 from that factory 60 placard pressure. So I never did figure out if it was a number of psi from placard pressure to the alarm or a percentage of the total placard number as some figured it was like a 25% drop from placard pressure would trigger it. So as to try and answer your question, I believe I set the placard pressure on the front to 47 or so and while I run the front tires at 40, they have dipped below that some if its colder and I haven't put "winter air" in yet and never once have had the front alarm go off. I would say that the answer your looking for is no, that if you set your placard pressure to 45, you have a certain amount of room to drop below that pressure before the alarm will go off.    The pressures you decide to run in your truck, that ends up being what makes sense to you based on what your carrying in your truck or if towing, then have to bump them back up to something that will carry the load in the rear and the fronts typically left at the same pressure. It all comes down to that chart I put the link to and using an accurate roadside scale to be your guide, both unloaded and then loaded to know your minimum safe pressures.    I just wish GM would allow a person to change the readings for the tire pressures to the English system of pounds as I have to look at that goofy metric reading that will never ever jive in my head and will go over and change it just to figure out what they are if need be and then change it back.
