Yes, somewhere. They are posted in the other thread that pertains to that as well. Ill search and post if I can find them.
I think its much better with the lighter interiors. I didnt mind the wood, but wood looks best with dark interiors, I think this with the lighter works best

^ do you have the part # for all them pieces? Looks great!

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

This is my first honest attempt at vinyl wrap. It's nowhere near perfect, but by the end, besides it being dark out, I got way better at it. Here are some shots of when I picked my truck up and the in progress vinyl. Will give it another go possibly this weekend

I can't see it in person, but from the pictures it looks like an incredible first attempt. If you wouldn't have posted the pic with the bumper being chrome, I would've been fooled into thinking the bumper was factory painted. Also, if I were you, I would give a crack at doing the air damn. See how it comes out. I think it would look good if you can get it on there properly

How did this work out for you?

Are they any brighter?

Same bulb for both cargo and backup?

4 bulbs total?

What about the center brake light?

 

I've been thinking about this because it looks inexpensive and easy and the stock back up are not very bright.

Worked out great..REAL bright!! Yes they're the same 921 bulbs for both. I didn't think about the center brake light and honestly don't know if it's the exact same bulb. Since it has a red lens I don't know if there'd be enough difference to mess with. But I recommend the others for sure.

I used the same basic bulb except I got ones that were rated at 50W, they are very bright and much better than stock because of the white color and it is brighter than stock IMO. Also I found mine matched the color of the interior domes and the LED DRLs.

 

The 3rd brake light/center stop lamp, it is the same bulb, but I would recommend using a red bulb because if it is white then it may cause the light to look lighter than it should so it will look more pinkish than it is now.

These are "projector bulbs" (what ever that is). I guess 10W is enough for them. I don't see how anything could be that much brighter. I turned on the cargo lamp after I had installed one and left the stock one in to compare the two and the stock 921 actually looked brown next to the bright white LED. The backup lights are blinding in the dark too.

Here are a couple more in the daylight. The flaws are more obvious in these. I will look into removing the fog light deletes for my next try. I'm not so hot on doing the valence, I like the way it looks, but I do want to try doing a matte green plasti dip on the tow hook surround

Did you need load resisters to stop the missing light bub warning from displaying due to low current draw?

Do you have a link to the bulbs you used?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      So, do I go elbow-deep on this thing or list it for sale and play dumb? Seems to "runs good."   I'm about $1200 away from having: -a rebuilt injector ($300) -a new cat ($250) -a new cat back exhaust (OE style) ($300) -a new AC compressor ($200) -AC refrigerant charge ($150)   In theory, this should rectify the obvious detracting issues from its value and operability. Cold AC with a non-squeaking AC pulley both sounds and feels good. An exhaust that isn't cut/hacked in 17 different places and doesn't vibrate on a crossmember would make it sound and feel less janky. A working cat would help the stink, and will save the earth, but *if and only if* the fuel system is working properly, which would also address the intermittent "rich" CEL.   Heard a good one... CEL for "Rich condition" means you haven't spent enough money on the truck lately, and it's letting you know.   Rebuilding the injector would seem to be the most important part. Replacing the cat would be secondary. I don't think mine is plugged or overly restricted, but it might be a little restricted? I have no good way to tell other than seat of the pants feel. I hate the smell.   The current theory is I have a rich idle problem: A bad fuel pressure regulator, or a leaking injector(s) being the highest probabilities. I already replaced the FPR but that doesn't mean its replacement isn't also bad. It was a new part from Dorman, but the packaging looked like it had been sitting on a shelf for 20 years.   This is the (single) upstream O2 sensor shown at idle. I'm getting a lot of "rich" it seems. Sometimes it stays high like that and doesn't drop down. That makes me think it's processing injector leaks or a partially stuck open injector.     Other times it looks like this. Nice oscillations between rich and lean, which is what I think it should be. Under load and at speed, the oscillations are nice and tight and uniform looking, high and low.     Fuel trims suggest the PCM is compensating pretty hard at idle to pull fuel out. But it's not enough to trip a CEL. Something about slowing to a stop: brake vaccum booster, EGR, or the EVAP purge is delayed, or there's pooled fuel in the intake again that's draining into a cylinder is enough to set the CEL. Of course, in two days of driving, it hasn't set. I was hoping to actually look at the freeze-frame data when it sets. IAT is high because it's idling on an 83 degree day here.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      Gas fill door

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
