I bought one from Diablew, and with that and my exhaust change night and day. Now if I can just send my data logging to him, I can get my custom tunes.

 

Works great, took off the DOD crap, and improved my mpgs

Got my dealer to fix those back lit knobs that GM refuses to fix. Happy with my dealership. Also fixed the "seat movement" in my cc.

Oh Yeah, I also finally did the footwell lights modification, both front and rear. Beats me, as to why GM cheaped out on the most simple of things, like this. My service advisor that took care of my radio and climate knobs was surprised to see them and actually really liked them. Wondering if I can do the same to his truck. :ninja:

Ive been wanting to do this...
what lights did you use, where did you tie in and where did you run the wiring for the rear ones?
I think I also want to do an ambient light that is on at night too.

Drove my '14 Sierra Denali up from Anchorage to its namesake "Denali National Park"....where we took an aerial flightseeing tour of the park and Mt. McKinley to include landings at both the climber's base camp (@ 7k ft.) and on a glacier (@17k ft.). Great drive with a great truck coupled with stellar views. Tomorrow, off to Seward to do an offshore NPS guided tour of the Kenai Fjords to include numerous tidewater glaciers and marine wildlife including whales.

 

How's that for a "what have you done to your '14 today?" or better "where did your '14 take you today" :cool:

I think I also want to do an ambient light that is on at night too.

I used the white XKglow pods (http://www.xkglow.com/60PC_Ultra_Bright_Motorcycle_LED_Engine_Neon_Kit_p/xk034001.htm)

As for the wire I tapped into, was fairly easy actually. I found another wire under the dash(driver side) that controls the dome lights. So when you unlock the truck or open any door, all the lights come on. Many members here found the actual wire that goes up to the dome lights on the ceiling/headliner, which is in the black box under the dash as well but it's hard to work and tap into it See (pic 1) of the wiring harness I used to tap into. In order to run the wires to the rear seats, I went under the carpet on the driver side/under dash to the trim pieces that go along the door frame. Continued to run the wires under the trim pieces, till I got the B-pillar to come across the driver seat frame/trim piece.(pic 2) I pushed the door frame trim piece as much as I could to show the white wire coming across and under the driver seat.

I installed the frame plugs (rear wheel housing) which came in today. It took only a few seconds. I also went a step further and took two of the (plastic) plugs I removed from my truck bed (installed the tie down rings) and installed it in the middle hole (same size as the truck bed) to give it a very clean look. There are no holes visible in the wheel housing. I had to stretch out the end catches on the plastic plug to get it over the thicker metal in the rear wheel housing. The rear wheel housing looks good without any holes and completes it nicely. Cheap update.

 

Thanks mcnwil (page 65) for this update. I always disliked these open holes.

Nice trip - something I would like to do some day.

    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
    • https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/fuel-economy-stickers-don-t-tell-the-whole-story-aaa-data-reveals-why/ar-AA26ocHk?ocid=winp2fptaskbarhover&cvid=6a4122ea3dae47e5b8dfbed5d4fd3d55&cvpid=648f6b4fc2fa4eddb4c12893aeb957ed&ei=59
    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.    
    • Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.
