55 watts. And about $200. A lot more than i was planning on spending but I got to the point with being so frustrated with my LEDs that weren't working that I was able to justify the price. The salesman said its the best kit he sells and I'm just glad they work and look good.

So I had my dealer do all my upgrades when I bought the truck last July, including powder coating the stockers. Well, they replaced the nice GMC stamped center caps with plain standard ones which they sprayed black and put red GMC vinyl stickers on them. At first, I just went along with it. After the paint rubbing off them twice because they weren't sanded well and no promoter was used, I told em to just give me my stock caps back and I'll figure something out. I had a local sign shop cut out some logos to scale so I could stick the stamped logo on the cap before I spray them. I sanded the crap out of em, laid the logos, tak-ragged, sprayed with adhesion promoter, then sprayed with duplicolor satin black spray paint. I pulled the vinyl pretty quickly after spraying. Think I'm happy with the results. A little of the chrome trim was left around the letters too, much cleaner and nicer than the quick cheap get it done ones the dealer did....

Found a military style water container that fits perfect between the bed and 2x8 divider. So now I have 5 gallons of spare gas AND 5 gallons spare water

I also secured a fire extinguisher to the GM under-seat storage tray I installed a few days ago...

Nice truck!

 

I like that old Chevy in the background. Looks to be a late model '49 or a '50? Without the running boards.

Borla ATAK sounds effing incredible!!! WOW!!! I am so happy with how it turned out, this truck sounds like a beast. I'm going to start a build thread soon and will post sound clips in there.

 

Also had the Airaid Jr. Kit installed. Filled up my du-ha with lots of tools such as emerg. equipment, fire extinguisher, tow straps, ratchet straps, bungee cords, etc. etc. My truck has already been put to work and has towed out not 1, but 2 dodges... friggen' things can't get out of their own way.

 

Ordered the upper cargo tie downs from the dealership and have an appt. to get them installed next week.

 

Still trying to decide on a lift... too many options.

 

Get so many looks on my truck. I really believe these are the best looking trucks on the road, GM has outdone themselves here. Bowtie til I die.

I bought mine from CARiD and my estimated ship date is this Wednesday. When I spoke with them in chat I was told they had two in stock for the K2XX double cabs.
