Just bought my CC all terrain last week and the mod list has begun.

 

Installed:

 

Weathertech digital fit floor mats

Weathertech window visors

Belltech rear levelling kit

Bakflip g2

Installed painted molded mud guards

Vinyled front and rear gmc logos

Morimoto hid for fogs

Hardwire passport 9500ix with flush mount leds and mute button

Installed powered tailgate lock

 

Not bad for a days worth of work lol. Im waiting for my leds to come in for footwell and extra bed lighting. Also, im waiting for my caplink from the retrofit source so i can do a retrofit with a set of FXR projectors

I give up...as good as it looks I can't figure out what it is. Could you please enlighten me? :D

Just a button to turn the cargo light on and off from the tailgate. Have them tired to the reverse lights is nice but the cargo light button turns them on for 10 minutes.

Any pics of the switch and where did you get them?

I just tinted the fronts out to match the back, add EGR in-channel visors and had 3M paint protect on the hood done.

Installed Husky Weatherbeaters front and rear today.

Where'd you get the GMC door sill plate? Mine is just black plastic. Wouldn't mind getting one like yours!

Shopchevyparts.com, they have cocoa and black. The picture on their website only shows the insert but these are molded into the trim pieces so you replace your current trim pieces completely.

They do have a zebra pattern, but I'm ok with it, I'll be installing rigid flood lights soon under the tailgate

I have those same bulbs. They work really well! The zebra pattern is from the reverse housing itself. Still wish these bulbs were able to get rid of it.

Used a piece of this furniture 'gripper' to make an anti-rattle pad for the keys. This material is thick enough to provide good cushion and pliable enough to apply to the steering column trim. Have used this product before and am well pleased with it.

1st oil change. Mobil 1 0-20w and Mobil 1 filter.

 

I use Mobil oil and filter too, but I took mine in Friday for the tire rotation and oil change. I never let anybody do something I can do myself, but I figure I might as well use the 2 year service warranty lol. I did check to make sure the drain plug was tight from hearing stories of people not tightening them enough.

I did mine in the driveway. The dealer I bought from is 100 miles away. I wanted Mobil 1 in it and don't much care if the oil change is free, if they don't use Mobil 1.

I bought one of those GM exhaust tips. The factory pipe is a razor sharp hazard to my dogs that dang near hit it daily. The add on GM tip has a nice rolled edge. If one of my dogs had hit the factory pipe, the vet bill for the stitches would pay for a few tips.

    • I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.        
    • This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.
    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
