Do you have a photo of how yours looked on the truck?

 

Not acting up right now but the 5th from the right is tempurmental and the 1 led on the right lower step pad is out. But as you can see I like the anzo taillights as well and haven't had issues with them.

Yours looks amazing. I’m sure ANZO will replace if it’s faulty; there amazing to deal with.

How did you wire it in?

I used a jumper that goes in between the factory 7 pin plug and wiring behind the bumper that gives you a 4 flat behind the bumper and just t-tapped the reverse wire in that harness so none of the factory wiring was compromised. It's not the fact that I can't get it replaced it's the fact that I'm tired of having to replace it plus my bedrug velcro strip doesn't stick to the tailgate anymore because if having to replace it.

Does your truck alert that you’re connected to a trailer since your tied into that harness?

No it doesn't and the nice thing about using the harness is the light bar has a 4 flat on it so it makes it really easy to connect it without losing the factory one if you need to tow a small trailer. Picture is the part number and brand I used. As long as you have the factory 7 pin setup,you simply unplug the factory harness from the bumper and it's goes right in between.

After hours of searching for an under seat storage system that would work with my factory sub, I finally decided to make my own storage box. With some 5/8" scrap plywood, "L" brackets, automotive carpet, and a couple hours of measuring with cardboard mock ups, here are the final results.

Thanks WesternMike,

I know I threw away the cardboard mock ups. But I believe I still have the dimensions for the cuts. Give me until tomorrow to try and find out what I did with them and I will be sure to post them.

Been far too long since I could list something I have done to my truck.  Today I received my Vitesse Throttle Controller and got it installed.  It was later in the day so I was limited in how much I got to play with it.  My first impression is that this thing really makes the truck accelerate like I expected when I bought it.  No more hesitation.  Nice acceleration which is obviously bad for my gas mileage because I can't keep my foot out of it now.

I love this setup. Just weary of the little glow cubes. How are you adjusting to them?

I just put it in yesterday afternoon. I’m bout to drive about 7 hours today so i can give a more definitive answer for you. So far though it’s a smooth transition for me. But I’m no stranger to alpines interfaces

    • I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here. 
    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
