Sick pics guys! Question.. I have a 2015 Silverado Midnight Z71... What are my options? I heard someone say that only single row in the grill would be effective? Is that true? What would a 40" curved look like on top of the bumper?

 

Thanks for the input!

Where are you guys running the wires for light bars into the can and what power are y'all tapping into?

99.9% of the people use the battery with a relay.

What wire is the High Beam Positive? I want to use that as my trigger wire for my relay. What kind of power is going to the headlights Amps wise.

New set up behind RaceMesh Grille. 40" flat Rigid Industries fits with moderate trimming to clear the way. Mounted using Rigid Industries 40" Cradle Mount.

I wanted the Amber/white combo by ridgid. It's not curved. Curved would look better I'm sure. Uhhhhg. Any ideas.

Yeah I'm holding out until they make a curved Amber bar.

Hello,

 

That bar looks sweet and was wondering where you got it or what company it's from?

It's from infinite off-road

Just bought a 32 inch led bar and doing some mock ups and it will fit perfect in the lower part of the grill! Also just ordered the rigid industries wiring kit. I don't like the switch so I think I wanna get another one. Hopefully the electrical side of the house isn't too hard.i would like to have it hooked up to my my high beams but it seems to hard for me since I don't like to mess with electrical stuff.

Really easy to hook up to the high beams, all you need is a diode and connect it to the wire going from the switch to power the bar and also to the hi beam wire. As far as switches I like what otrattw.net has to offer.

I guess I'll have to do more research on how to do it. If its that easy I'll try it out. And yes those are the switches I like.

This is my video, I show How to use a diode to use reverse led lights with a switch and with reverse. In your case instead of taping into the reverse for power, you'll tap into the hi beam but the rest will be the same.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
