Those fogs are nice, but not compatible with a ‘17 Sierra…different fog design.

I looked at their site though, has anyone tried the LED Halos for a ‘16 to ‘18 Sierra? Can’t tell if I’d like them or not.

For once I was happy to have the pre face lift Sierra solely for that reason haha.

Diode makes some of the best quality lighting products I've seen, plus their customer support it top notch. I installed their switchback DRL boards when I did my headlight retrofit and have no complaints. They are extremely bright, sometimes I think they're on the verge of being too bright lol.

Haven't done much other than an oil change and tire rotation lately. Sitting at 40k on the trans fluid and filter, got everything on order to try and save this TC as long as I can.

Finally got my vinyl plotter setup and materials are slowly starting to trickle in. Had my first customer purchase GMC/Denali decals for his custom headlight retrofit company. They will be going on the corners for his 14-15 builds. If anyone needs anything custom, let me know!

A few new mods/upgrades recently.
Thought I would share.

Man I'm really itching to get those steps. Been on my "wants" mod list forever! Looks awesome

Drove to the cabin with the wife this past weekend and explored some back roads after some fresh snow. Donuts and sliding around corners may have occurred from time to time..

Installed a Garmin Mini2 Dash Cam. Pretty cool little doodad.

How difficult was that?

I just installed a 4K front and rear cam.

It took a couple hours. Easy job.

Too many idiots that don't belong driving on the road not to have a setup like this.

I'm fixing to install my VanTrue N4 (forward, cabin, & rear), soon. I just need to tear my cab up just a little bit to route everything. The only hard part, that I see, is getting into the fuse box and the headliner.

I threw our Uniden "Witness" ($60) into our son's (use to be daughter's) Civic, took 10 minutes to route the USB cable to the DC outlet. The only downside is that every 45-60 seconds it saves the last 45-60 seconds of video to the card and misses about 0.5-1.0 seconds each time. BUT, this was our "use everywhere we go" dash cam. Shortly after getting this vehicle (April 2021), my daughter got sideswiped getting onto the highway and changing lanes to pass the SLOW truck that got onto the highway in front of her. B!TCH stopped, tried blaming my daughter, and left the scene (when her friend/co-pilot noticed that they left paint transfer on our Civic). Even CHP speculated that they were doing 100 coming out of the construction zone (single lane, both directions, 55, NO PASSING, for 10 miles), and that's why my daughter never saw them until they collided. (Beside the point: It also happened on my daughter's first day on the job at BJ's, and the manager(s) were impressed, she didn't act like she was in an accident, and it was her 21^st birthday weekend.)

HINT: Whether or not if you have a dashcam, take photos of the other vehicle(s) and driver(s), when you're in an accident (even if you're at fault) OR if you witness one (they may be shaken up enough to not think about it).

All the wires get tucked under the edge of the headliner.

My camera setup( Viofo Pro Duo 4K) came with a tool to push the wires under it. No removal needed.

Little late, but took this one leaving work the other day after getting quite a bit of snow. Drive home was effortless!

That's what I did on my Civic, but I have a painted XM antenna that I want to put on my truck while I'm installing the dashcam. Probably should have stated that.
