Great look. Great install. I've been wanting to do this for awhile but not sure about which brand/size of standalone LEDs to go with.

 

Where did you get the "1000 lumen" spec from? His website doesn't list output. Guessing they're 500 each, so 1000 total for your setup?

Also... is there anyway you could post night pics, with truck parked about 20' from solid wall, one with only stock reverse bulbs lit and one with accessory LEDs lit? I know that's a big request but I found the wall test better shows the light output improvement. Thanks.

That's an impressive install and write up. I think I might have to do something similar, I love having really dark tinted windows and they don't help with visibility at night haha.

Here is the ice cream nook. Lol eza3y9an.jpg8utubaqe.jpg Believe it or not they are on... On top pic the stockers

Wow, that's a huge difference. Thanks for adding another item onto the investment for the truck. These things end up costing more than a girlfriend haha.

Yup. I NEED this. Thanks for the write up. Is the green wire powered when in reverse only or did you wire a seperate switch?

The light green is power only.. You can use a dual pole switch and run a hot to turn on.

I just need it for reverse lol.. And if i need it on I'll lock e brake and in reverse haha.

Might add a power on for when i get pesky tail gaters

      Forward collision and lane keep assist still a problem on 2022 refresh?

      By kr477 · Posted

      I am sorry if this was misleading. That was a document attached to our most recent work order number (Doc# 7105804) that summarized all the current updates. These programs were ‘redone’ in the past but these versions dated 4/1/2016 were the ones that actually made all of the problems disappear. These programs were relayed to the dealer from the technical services group at GM. Here is the exact wording on the last work order:   “Front view camera reprogramming with SPS. A new version of FCM software was released to the service dept. In addition to providing general robustness and stability enhancements, this update includes all enhancements from previous software version releases. SPS camera and calibrate camera. OLH to perform extended camera relearn procedure after camera calibration. Would not take with first GDS learn. Front camera SPS – BDYZ333157450 GDS2 – camera road calibration performed 2810835 Front view camera reprogramming with SPS LT 0.6 OLH – extended camera relearn procedure OLH LT 1.5”   I got the truck back on 4/8 – since that time it has been great no problems whatsoever. The lane keep assist, active cruise control and AEB all work very well around town and at highway speeds up to 80mph. During this time I had been away for a week and purposely let the battery sit without a batter tender. Even with the battery a bit lower there were no problems exhibited. I really think this one has it fixed after dealing with these issues over a couple of years. These new programs and relearn process when completed seem to make all the parts (and newer replacement parts) ‘talk’ to each other without any glitches. Hope this helps

      I turned 72 today. My day began with a trip to the pharmacy to pickup meds for me and the dog and then a stop at my chiropractor before heading home. Once home I started the job of replacing the rear brake pads and one rotor on our 2018 Silverado which will probably end up taking me 3 days to finish, gotta pace myself you know. Sometimes I question myself on why I still do most of my own repairs but if I wasn't then it's more than likely I would be sitting in front of the TV all day. It seems like the list of things I need to do gets longer no matter what I accomplish. I'm not complaining but being retired was so much easier when I was 62.   Peace

      google "bathub failure curve". Basically, any part of the vehicle can fail at any time.  It starts off as being more likely (early failure), then the failure rate goes down (but does not go to zero), then it goes up over time because it wears/ages out.

      I went from every other day to about once in five since the rain abated. I'm not unhappy about that. Took most of the month for the ditches to dry enough to mow.
