Did you have any issues plugging the new Fog's into the fog housing..? I ordered some V-LED's and I could only get 1 bulb to snap into place and tried for a couple hours to get the second one to snap into the fog light housing, with no luck. I'm just curious, if anyone else has experienced any issues trying to plug an aftermarket fog bulb in? It looks like the little tabs are pretty fragile. V-LED is going to send me a new bulb to try..so, we will see.

 

On a side note..If I could figure out how to take out the Fog Light housing, I might be able to get a better idea why it's not working, but from what I could tell, it's almost impossible to take it out without pulling the bumper off. If I'm wrong or there is an easy way, please let me know.

 

Thanks,

Had XPEL front end bra and door edge guards installed. Very impressive.

I actually tried taking off the grill/emblem but after several clips and screws, I still think I had to remove the front painted bumper clip and maybe even the headlamps! So I just tightened it all back up and taped it off. Came out great, esp for my first time. Thoughts?

 

Wow that blacked out GMC REALLY changes the look!! It looks badass!

How easy or not is it to replace the fog lights with these LED's? I've never done any of that, is it a simple plug and play? Price looks good from what little I know about them.

 

Also love the LED drl!

Got the GM bedmat with purchase of the truck. Very nice piece! Thick, feels durable, and very skid proof. Also ordered a set of stepboards...brand is Ionic Railway's and I found them onsale for $369 shipped from AutoCustoms. Installation was a breeze, fit perfect, and they look awesome! I was very impressed with the quality for not being very expensive. Brackets use 2 bolts to mount to cab then two for stepboard. Total of 4 brackets per side. They feel very sturdy and the step pads are nice thick rubber for non-slip. So much easier getting in and out now! Especially when combined with the assist handle. Got it on as well! Definitely a must have! Pics below! Loving this truck more and more each day I drive it!

I installed Firestone air bags and Air Lift WirelessOne compressor. Then I put my new XD813 Wheels on wrapped with Cooper LTZ 275/60/20.

I'm gonna put one of the stock bulb back on to compare them at night tomorrow.. As far as i can see,it's brighter than stock and doesn't have any side affect like blinking or anything that i can see at the moment..

    • This video may not be the exact content for the joke thread but its a lot of laughs so here it is, I've only watched a portion of it so far but if anyone is looking for some light hearted good soap box driving action, its here. As a note in the upper left of the screen it shows the number out of 100 to refer back to any particular vehicle for comment !.    https://www.facebook.com/reel/1351928276956715
    • Did have to make 1 modification because of the WeatherTech rear mud flaps and that was needing 3 longer screws than what came with the install package. 😄
    • Picked up the liners yesterday. Installed passenger side WITHOUT any modifications. All mounting holes lined up perfectly. Rain is interfering today with drivers side. Very Happy! Will add pics when finished
    • As a matter of amusement I’ll leave this conversation with this. Do you beat the government average fuel estimate? Statistics are a guide to me. Not a rule. Someone once said I have to have the last word. If true and possible may be. I’ll blame that on working in a family business.
    • That is a fair point, and I agree that trying to log “everything in the truck” would be the wrong direction.   There are a lot of modules and a lot of traffic. If the product became a full-truck datalogger, the amount of data would get huge very quickly, and most owners would never use it.   I think the first useful version would need to be narrow: - powertrain-side event evidence - selected high-value parameters - communication / voltage / reset events - pre/post event window - short report first, raw log only as backup   One distinction I should make is between active OBD/PID polling and passive bus capture. If you are polling PIDs through OBD, then yes: the more parameters you request, the lower the effective sample rate becomes, and you are adding diagnostic traffic to a vehicle that is already busy running itself. With passive CAN capture, the recorder is not asking all the modules for data. It is listening to traffic that is already on the bus. So it does not consume vehicle bus bandwidth in the same way that a scan tool polling hundreds of PIDs would. But your point still applies in a different way.   Even if passive capture does not add bus traffic, the recorder still has limits: - processing rate - storage rate - timestamp accuracy - decoder workload - event filtering - report size - user attention span   So the answer cannot be “log everything and let the user figure it out.” The product would need to store enough raw evidence to be useful, but only decode, graph, and present the important parts around the event.   A practical report should probably show: - what triggered the capture - how much pre/post data was preserved - which selected parameters changed - how those values compared to baseline - whether the same pattern happened before - whether any voltage, reset, bus-off, lost-message, or communication fault occurred - selected graphs around the event - raw data only as supporting evidence   So I agree with you. More data is not automatically better. The real product is the reduction from raw data into a useful event report.
