I paid full price ($60) because that is a steal!!!! Trying to low ball to $50 was too much of a risk since the next best price I have found was over $100 and the option with the truck originally only cost $60. Win Win.

Anyone seen or install with a factory bed liner. Does the liner get in the way?

I agree 100% I was just giving you crap. I took that risk and lost it.

I know...that's why I was giving it back! I will send you a nice pretty picture when they are all installed!

Since the inside bed walls are very similar between the two generations, the lights will fit like a glove, but will require drilling the mounting holes. Obviously, the wiring will have to be modified, since the kit plugs into the module by the spare tire on the '14's. I am going to use a door jamb switch from an older GM vehicle, and the lamps will illuminate when the tailgate opens. On the '14's, they illuminate when the cargo lamp switch is depressed.

 

 

 

Was wondering how the install went with the "door jam" switch? Any pictures?

I have the factory liner with the led lights. Just make sure you have the right one. Mine was GM part number 22879299. I had to drill holes for upper tie downs but they are already marked with a dimple. That was for a 5' 8" bed so part number will be different for 6' 6" bed.

The kit will be here Monday. I will update once everything is hooked up and working.

Great, thanks. I will be sure to tune in as I am very interested in how you are going to this!

So the kit came in Saturday. Took about an hour to install. Very simple and straight forward. The lights came on with the factory switch located in the cab. Very nice addition for what I paid.

    • I have an Autel, works great for what it is. Can't do some specific things because you need say the GM tool, VCDS for Audi/Volkswagon and others of course. But those times are few and far between for me.   The other tool I'd like to try one day is the new Topdon scan tools. Seen several video's on them and many youtube people review them.    I've never subscribed for updates or payed to do that stuff on my Autel, so I'm sure I'm missing out on some of the updates but I'm fine with that for now.
    • I am in the market for a bidirectional scan tool so was hoping someone can help point me in the right direction. There are so many options out there it is hard to narrow down which make/model to choose.   I have always done my own vehicle work so looking to maximize capability with the scanner. Ideal price is $1k or less but would be willing to exceed if it opens up significant benefits.  Currently my 24 2500 is the newest vehicle but also have a few mid to late 2010s Subarus as well.    It seems that the Autel MP900 has a decent amount of features at a reasonable price?
    • There was talk over the last couple of years that the contract to build these trucks between GM and International would not be renewed.  International moved production of all their other trucks besides the companion CV model out of the Springfield plant some time ago when they opened their San Antonio plant.  That left Springfield only building the Silverado Medium Duty, International CV Series, and some Express/Savanna long wheelbase cutaways.  International also put the plant up for sale some time ago.  This all answered my earlier question as to why GM and International did nothing with these trucks since they were introduced, as they had basically become a market 'placeholder' with a finite life.    The Silverado Medium Duty/International CV trucks were interesting combination of a GM powertrain, electrical system, and K2XX Silverado cab with an International chassis that was supposedly designed for a step-van type vehicle they never produced.  They were manufactured in International's Springfield plant along with the IH MV series initially.  When first introduced, there was much talk that the Silverado Medium Duty/CV would eventually get a gasoline engine option along with other upgrades and GM and IH would work on a class 6/7 joint venture truck.  This was before VW bought Navistar out, after that happened no more was said.  Draw your own conclusions...   About the time talk started that the GM/IH joint venture was not going to be renewed, rumors started that GM would develop a new line of medium duty trucks themselves.  The story is the new trucks will be part of the next generation HD's due in 2028, and will still feature a 'straight rail' chassis design that the current medium duty has.  GM views this as a desirable feature that differentiates their truck from the competition.  A gasoline engine option is also expected.  As the current Silverado Medium Duty remains in production until September 2026 and there is still a lot of inventory available do not expect any official word for some time.   I believe GM remains committed to their successful partnership with Isuzu, and all the LCF models will still be available from Chevy Commercial dealers.  Isuzu is on the cusp of opening a new large plant in South Carolina and there is also speculation that this may result in new product for both Isuzu and Chevy Commercial dealers.
