Where did you find a blue lighted Denali cluster??!! I never pulled the trigger on this because I didn’t want the red!!

LOL!  What year is your truck?  2017 and later, GMC went to blue lighted.

 

Edit: Nevermind.  I just saw you have a 2015.  You're out of luck bud.

Nice looking set up. It's nice to see a fellow Mainah on these boards.  Love my Magnum Rack did you end up mounting your light with the magnum mounts? What else is that controller running?

 

Also, nice plow set up too.  I'm trying to justify one for my half ton, this photo is pushing me towards outfitting it.

I have a 15. I haven’t gone into great detail of research on this swap yet but love that Denali cluster

I don't believe you can get a 2017+ cluster with blue lighting to work in a 2015.  According to all the reading I did, the model years have to match.  You can contact Chris and he can confirm that though.

I think You’re right, that’s why I told him he’d probably have to buy a new truck to make the swap lol.

Guess I won't be doing the swap then. Oh well. One less project to worry about then

Or you could swap it and all the other lights along the dash out to red?!

Reolaced my IOB 7" with the Alpine x110-slv 10" Restyle kit and added the leather steering wheel with radio controls. Drag is the steering wheel controls didn't work with the idatalink Maestro as I was told by the Alpine tech so I still have to change the BCM.

It looks like your whole dashboard changed. Do you have more information? I have the non-navi 7” screen. I like yours better

The kit comes with the trim pieces on the side of the screen and the only thing you re use is the heater controls. It is totally plug n play with all harnesses included and although the wiring harness looks like a nightmare it is actually pretty easy to install with absolutely no cutting.

You keep your Onstar and WiFi, factory microphone and all functions i.e. Tire pressure monitoring system etc that work through the radio still function with a few added functions. It comes with a separate speaker for the chimes/turn signals that has its own volume control so they won't be loud if you add an amplifier. 

If you have USB in the glove box that one will work but the hub in the jump seat or console will not. Also, your factory satellite antenna will work with the adapter included but the module you take out has the xm tuner in it so you have to buy the Alpine tuner. 

Factory backup camera plugs right in (has adjustable guide lnes and trailer guide lines) and you can add up to 3 additional cameras.

There is an optional module available that will allow you to control up to 8 aftermarket accessories like a winch, fog lights, power tonneau cover etc directly from the headunit and an hdmi splitter that will allow you to mirror your phone or add other hdmi sources like a Fire TV Stick or rear seat monitors etc. 

Theres a bunch more I can't think of right now but if you have any specific questions just ask. 

Alnost forgot, the navigation works well and you can do a split screen with audio and navigation. 

About the only complaints I have are it will not allow voice commands for the navigation and it's a little slow booting up as well as when switching sources or functions IMG_1387.thumb.JPG.6a98e9013c41c3d0897496dd3f3a2818.JPG

Must have changed it in 2018 models then. I’ll start looking down the road here. To many  projects I’m in the middle of now 

 

Sierra went to blue in 2017. If you have a 2017 or 2018 Silverado you can use a cluster out of a same-year Denali and have a blue cluster. I believe some Suburbans and Tahoe's in 2016 also had a Denali-style cluster that could put in a 2016 Silverado and still remain blue.  Anything prior to 2016 model year would be a red cluster in a Silverado truck.

When you say adjustable guidelines are you talking about when you move the steering wheel the lines move too?

They do move with the steering wheel but you can also adjust each line separately side to side and front to back (it has red closest to the tailgate, yellow in the middle and green furthest away). It also has a fully adjustable line in the middle that you can center on your trailer hitch.  When I first installed this the red guideline left me about 2 feet from my garage door when I backed in but I was able to adjust it so I was only about 6 inches away when the red line hit the door.

Took advantage of that 20% off on eBay. Bought a new black front bow tie ( since mine has rock chips all over it ) and also got a brand new auto dimming mirror all for $51. Couldn’t beat that

    • JW2024 and Others is this site for Oshawa built Trucks as well ? Thank You !
    • Thanks JR that would be great if you could do that !!! Do you have a link to where this was discussed before ? I cant seem to find it  Thank You Again !
    • Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning. 
    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
