Just as an FYI. I just finished my 2nd console swap and on my 2016 Silverado with a console ordered from a 2016. I was able to get everything to work: console light, USBs inside and on top(data and charging), wireless charger, 110v outlet and all of the 12v sockets

 

Did you have to do anything special to get the USBs to work for data?

I am looking to buy a center console if anyone has one for a 2016. I have a 16 Z71 with Black interior and white stitching. Or if anyone has an updated list for the 16's that would be great.

If i come up with a console, can you help me out and give some quick tips to get everything to work right?

Honestly, I bought a USB cable from Amazon and plugged it into the left side(Back side Mini USB) and then applied power to the wires for the bottom connector. It takes some wiring, but they will work. I then drilled a small hole in the TOP glove box and put a grommet in the hole and then plugged the cable into there... So what I have done is made it where the inside and outside console USB ports work and use the one in the glove box to make the front console USBs to work. I did this because I can always unplug them and I almost never used the one in the glove box.

That's actually not a bad idea basically like a hub. You got a wire from a USB to a mini usb. Then just hooked up power + and - for charging.?

After doing to console swap, I've got the 3 usbs in the front to charge and play music from my phone but they will not work for CarPlay...the only one that works with CarPlay is the usb in the upper glovebox. Is this normal or should they be working for CarPlay too?

#4 ground, #6 power. 1 photo shows back of 3 slot USB outlet (front). Other shows the very expensive connector you could use.

 

Do you know the wiring for the other 4 pins in this connector? Are they for the 1/4" stereo jack?

Anyone have the leftover plastic parts for the lower Dash after your seat to console swap? (Unfortunately) I am going the other way...

 

Looking for something like the below:

      Not sure about DFM tech but i know there's a stop/start deactivation button.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Zane · Posted

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      Navigating senior years.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
