Yea, my bad.

Tbarn, you seem to be very knowledgable regarding the console swap. Can you explain to me the purpose of the mini sub cable needed for the hmi module to wherever it needs to be ran? Thanks in advance

I always wanted a RCSB with buckets and a center console...   Received and installed mine yesterday. Very straight forward, thanks for all who posted instructions and part numbers.   Possibly to h

My experience is this. Upon applying 12v and ground the the front usb ports they did nothing. I added the usb cable and now they will charge but not communicate. Seems as though the outlet is turned on via the usb cable. Anyway that's how I remember it from over 1.5 years ago. I don't think I have ever used any of the front outlets. Usb, 12v or 120v. 2 usb and sd in the console is plenty for me. Plus I added wireless charging to the lid so I don't need charging. http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/169848-3-coil-wireless-charger-install-in-2015-sierra-denali/

As far as the mini usb cable, I have seen tbarn and other members say that they have used this, http://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-19303328-Original-Equipment-Cable/dp/B00S0ERKIS, as the cable connected to the hmi, but the connectors need to be trimmed to fit. Although at this point, I am still unclear of the purpose of the mini usb cable that plugs into the hmi. Maybe someone can explain it.

Yeah that's the one.The online GM parts sites have it for around 13-14 bucks

Edit: they seem to want as much for shipping as the cost of the cable,Amazon it is!

I am close to ordering the parts needed to do the swap. Before I do, would anyone in the Mid Atlantic area be interested in trading their black center console for the jump seat w/console? I have the bench seat in black leather. My Z71 dbl cab has 350 miles. Let me know soon if interested.

I like it, More info on what you did to make this work, please...

 

 

Im assuming you are using bluetooth to send audio signals? did you make the iPad bezel yourself?

Yup bluetooth. used an ipad slide in kit from fifieldfab.com and glued it to a double din kit from amazon. Used body filler and kitty hair then the ususal paint process. Opend up original screen and glued it to the thing that holds the ipad. (Ipad is removable) charges from the plug that was in center console. All original functions are there.

Can the rear part of the console be removed easily? I want to mount my DVD player module in there if possible.

So,I struck out with gm parts direct,everything in stock but the console.Same thing with gm parts online.

Just ordered with gm parts headquarters,good prices too.Thanks for the tip nolabell

Hopefully it works out this time.

I was told by gm parts online that the console is a discontinued part even though it's sitting on the lot in a brand new truck and my dealer says gm has them in stock in Lansing Mi.I hate to pay what the dealership wants for it though,

 

Sorry for the rant

I am curious how hard it is to remove the rear panel facing the rear seats as in the pic below:0f180e3eb13be1e11eabd77e41e5e8c6.jpg

 

Part 22 is the one I am curious about.

Don't quote me but I think it is just snapped on like other trim pieces and secured with two screws in the lower recess,Someone else could probably give you a definite answer though as I haven't tried removing one,

      Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do like it. I wonder if they'll bring back Smokey Quartz Metallic? 🤔 https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/06/here-is-the-all-new-2027-gmc-sierra-1500/

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.
