A double row works well behind the Denali grill. Here's my 30" curved Totron:                 The LED's are 1" appart and the rows of holes in the grill just happen to be 1" ap

The correct term is "illegal commodities broker" thank you!   I actually work for an oil company, which is similar because both businesses provide highly desired products at artificially inflated

Im not sure if thats measureable but regardless the light still shines thru. Only reason i didnt go double is because it will for sure cover up some of the bulbs/lights (w/e u call it) but the light still shines. Not sure if im making sense there .. ill grab a pic really quick of someone elses

 

 

 

Update:

 

 

Ok not my photo, this from the SS forum who helped me out deciding what to get. He had the RC curved dbl, switched to the single.

 

Here is his dbl row. You can that the top row is blocked. It will still shine but light will just go up n down rather than forward

I went ahead and ordered up a brake controller panel and diced it up for my switches. Here's a few pics:

Where did you get the brake controller plate from and how much? Also,

how did you get the power for your switches to light up, like the words on the bottom part?

I chose to wire the bottom led off the parking lamp circuit. The top part comes on when the switch is rocked active.

 

Plate was off amazon. Find them all over the place right now on ebay, gm parts direct, rock auto had 2 in stock last week for 5 bucks more and :

Thanks. I actually did some digging in the forum and found a previous part of this thread that listed a part number for just the plate, minus the factory brake controller switch. $14-16 depending where you buy. Here's a link to it with a price and picture https://www.tascaparts.com/oe-gm/22830877?origin=pla&gclid=Cj0KEQiA_eXEBRDP8fnIlJDXxsIBEiQAAGfyod40NB5-yy5_xqk7rDII1vX9DUu0DDS8Jp4EgpJYjisaAvlq8P8HAQ

Can you guys recommend some underhood locations to mount 2 relays side by side? Pics would be appreciated as well.

So I don't have the light bar installed yet BUT I installed the switch that I wanted to use today LOL. Here are the pics below.

Keep in mind that my truck did not originally come with a center console, I installed it after buying the truck. I was able to get the USB ports to work. Prior to installing the center console, the truck had only one cigarette lighter so when I put the console in I left the second cigarette lighter alone with the intent of using it for a spot to install my aux switch. I had to remover the lighter and trim the switch a little but I think it turned out okay. The cover doesn't close completely but it's damn near close.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Atlas · Posted

      On the subject of OLM, Gm's OLM tool may be more "informed" than others brands. I recall OLM's in mid-2000's Chrysler products literally counting down a set number of miles. That's all the OLM appeared to be.    I would actually expect GM to be able to explain the parameters that their OLM takes into account from a high level. No, I would not expect them to disclose their software coding or data analysis around their parameters.   So we're talking about two different topics, so to continue the subject on the other one, I'd be curious to know how much "standard particulate matter" in fresh oil is able to be filtered at first start by a fresh oil filter. How much particulate matter is enough to "matter"?   I.e. how much of a "lever" do we think this equates to (variability in particulate content, in fresh oils, between different makes/brands, some which filter less, and some that filter more).   We can say that more particles = more wear = shorter engine life as a logical statement and use that data with a little marketing to scare people into selecting a more refined/filtered oil. Using a similie, is this like deciding to forego two alcoholic drinks in a lifetime because we're worried about the potential impact on lifespan? Are there numbers which translate the ISO test results into a quantifiable increase in wear for a given engine/use case?

      I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually recalibrate the speedometer it just changes the wheel speed sensor inputs to the computer. The truck still thinks it has stock tires.

      I apologize, I missed this post, at risk of going off CURRENT TOPIC.   I'm not saying it is BS, I'm questioning how much information is being held back. GM is NOT going to spell out exactly every parameter in the algorithm. Liability, intellectual property, etc.    I'm not naive enough to believe that it is as simple as revolutions, coolant temperature, miles, time; are you?    I don't do irrational either, and boiling the OLM down to four simple values that I could code in an afternoon (I'm not a coder) is irrational - unless it suits your agenda to ignore it.

      Chris 21 I appreciate your constructive response. !!  😉😉😉   The 6.6 is gas.  Correct me if I’m wrong but by recalibrating the speedo you’re correcting the shift points of the transmission on these trucks.?.

      That is a huge misconception.     Bigger does not always equal safer.  Modifying does not make it safer either, with exceptions.   Think of this.  Your truck in stock form is capable of emergency maneuvers, proper stopping distances, its handling is designed around the factory wheel/tire packages, etc.   37s and a lift?  Now you've affected your braking distances, handling and ride control.  You've raised your center of gravity higher.  Your front visibility is now obstructed more than stock, same for your rear.  Does it look cooler?  Yes.  Does it now work as good as it did from factory on road?  NO.       As for my mention of exceptions?  Say you had a sedan or crossover.  They typically come with all season tires.  If you swap out for a performance all season or a summer tire, you improve your car by lowering its stopping distance (better braking because of traction) and improve the handling (regular and emergency) of the vehicle.  That is an actually improving modification.  My old 2019 LD 1500, I ran UHP all season tires on 20in wheels in a factory offered size.  It improved all aspects of how it drove over the Duratracs it came with from the factory in the stock 18" tire.
