Per Fondupot's DIY video on the PNL install, note that installing the C-clip so the open part faces the hinges of the tailgate seems to do the trick.

Just finished installation. Took me a little longer due to being very meticulous about routing the wiring harness. I used a different method of connecting the wires though. I routed my wires all the w

is that grey (green stripe) brown (yellow)

just want to be 100% sure... sorry if its a stupid question

I did what he said above that post - "Then I connected the blue and green wire to the grey/green and brown/yellow coming from the x6 bcm connector(pink) just to the right of e-brake pedal."

Blue wire goes to grey/green and green wire goes to brown/yellow.

 

Dont recall if it is a stripe or not but they are the only two with those combos on the connector. If you are using the door sill then these would be the fattest ones if there are others with the same colors in the sill.

Great mod. Very doable. Does anyone know of a constant power supply wire I could tap into while I've got the door sill plate opened for another mod I want to do? What are the wire connectors called that come with the kit?

My tailgate has become kind of hard to open lately when it is unlocked. Anyone else experience this with their pop n lock installed?

Still gotta be easier to open than when it's locked though, right? :D

 

Mine is still working well, but it's only been on for about 8 months.

Mine did that. The striker for the right side of the tailgate came out of alignment. I loosened it and adjusted it back to the original spot tightened it back up and it been fine. Look to see if your tailgate is closing flush.

      Uh yes, that's the name of the package. It doesn't quite bring it up to 1 ton specs unfortunately and imagine they have to do that for a numbers reason rather than a physical one.    Am I correct though that the Max Trailer Package and therefore the 12" rear is only available on the Duramax and not on any of the L8T 3/4 ton trucks ( and that the same 11.5 rear axle center section is used on the 3/4, 1 ton SRW and even 1 ton dually gas version ) ?   I'd also be curious to know if the wheel bearings are the same on a SRW configuration between an 11.5 vs the 12" diff as I assume parts would show that up but may not explain what the difference is if indeed there was a physical difference.

      Mobil up another dime this am , $3.89, others will probably go up later. Any ideas on the reason for the increase other than greed? I've been working 14 hour days and haven't caught the news in a few days.

      AMSOIL SS is about prevention and it is very good at it's job. I've never seen it claim to be a cleaner however like Valvoline R&P. Almost any oil that has some Ester or Alkylated Naphthalene in sufficient quantity will do a good job at keeping the rings functional.     I see the market splint among these types in two groups; those that use the same tech in every weight grade and those that reserve the tech for the EPA (EPA) friendly grades. Mobil 1 for example keeps the Advanced Clean chemistry out of the SAE 40 and up weights. Other like HPL (top shelf group and No-VII), Red Line HP, TORCO, MPT30K use the tech in all grades. Just not something the Wally World oils are into.
