Judging from this eBay listing I would have to say that mine is reverse tartan.

Do I need to order the extra USB cable? I'd like to get the three USBs in the front to allow charging and connecting to the radio, and the inside USBs to just allow charging.

Great topic. While sometimes I wish I had the extended center console (as opposed to the seat console), I barely ever use the three 12V ports, or the three USB ports that I already have, as it is. I even put a 4-port USB hub inside the armrest ... never used it yet, nor have any guests in my truck, including several long road trips. If you work on the go a lot and need to charge multiple devices, then that would make sense. In my case, not so much. I drive a total of about 15 miles per day, since I take the train to work everyday.

 

The other thing is, in all of my previous vehicles, that area to put stuff in the center console, just seemed to always get filled with dust and crap, always was a pain in the arse to keep clean and looking nice, etc. - I'll just stick with my seat console. With three cup holders, I usually just use one for my drink, one for my dip cup, and one for my phone - works out fine. In addition, my wife likes to put her purse on the floor up front, center, which isn't possible, if the extended center console is there. She agreed to let me get this truck and she handles the finances ... gotta keep her happy, lol.

to do this you need to plug the 3 usb with connectors and usb that normally plug in the center socket (under armrest)

and no you won't need extra usb except if you want the center socket as charger

 

for my part i keep the 3 usb only for charging because i'm always afraid to broke a usb key in socket because its location........the one under the armrest is safer for me and also because i have sd car reader in it too ..........i use only sd card in fact for music........more little

I think it's fantastic that you guys are all helping each other out with all of this shared information on how to do all this stuff, that's great. This forum is second to none. One lesson I learned when I bought my truck (and my salesperson even told me this) ... the less stuff your truck comes with, the cheaper it is, to add other stuff later. She showed me the invoice on a few other vehicles - if a Tahoe comes with the GPS Navigation - the added cost to the vehicle price, is over $2,000. So, I went back a week later, and had it put in my Silverado for $750. I don't know what the center console part you guys are adding, costs on the invoice of an LTZ, but I guarantee you it's a hell of a lot more, than if you buy it afterwards.

 

Personally, one other reason I like having the jumper seat console, is because you can move it forward a bit, which you can't do with the full center console. My armrest was a little bit too far back for my tastes, and if I pulled the seat back, gas pedal was too far away (I'm 5'10"). So I simply removed the bolt covers on the floor, moved it forward about an inch and a half, and now it's perfect. No one will ever use that thing for a seat, anyways.

Well my bracket showed up today. Still waiting for the others. Wasn't sure if it all would be shipped together or separate.

anybody know the difference between denali and w/o denali?

 

The Denali says "Denali" on the console I believe is the only difference.

So the console itself and the two side pieces also came in. Now just waiting for the top piece to come in.

 

I see two wiring connectors: a big whitish connector and the brown USB connector.

Dumb question but does the cup holder come with the top piece or is it separate?

Should come with the cup holder. The trim piece seems to always lack the cup holder on the ones for sale on ebay.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.

      Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.

      Multigate electrical problem

      By Another JR · Posted

      The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.

      Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.

      I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
