Where would you put the trailer brake controller and the Transfer case Knob?

I don't have trailer brake, I only need the 2 that are already there.

came black from factory

i'm not a big fan of Chrome so i bought a WT (because budget and black things)

also i love modifying and customizing my things so options are selfmade :)

if i was richer i would buy a higher class and it would come all black too but full options:)

Thanks for the info

Well I don't even know what type of switches I would want haha. I was thinking I would just cut whatever hole I need for the switches as long as I have a solid piece to cut through.

d85f813943e9ef65d854ecb4783a0a92.jpgsomething like this, but factory look, and I would just cut out whatever template my switches are.

yes it's can be done.

I hardwired in my lightbar since the wireless switch I got took a shit on me. Here is where I put the switch.

I put mine infront of the over head light switches one on each side.

yes it's can be done.

I would be interested in buying it if you make it, there's other people here who are also interested.

I'll let you know by the end of the week.

So I have installed the video input module from kodiakz, but I cant get it to work at all. It ins installed, powers up by the looks of it with a red light. The OEM screen still work as is, instruction says hold left side of the screen to use the system, nothing happens.

 

To whoever has this installed, I could use some help, kodiakz is on a holiday trip right now, so he could not help me :(

What is this "video input module"?

What is this "video input module"?

Part number is iNav-Link GM404, but the version I got is that except only with video input. It allows you to have RCA video signal displayed in the infotainment 8" screen.

 

I am trying to get a forward camera in the truck and also a hidden dash cam recording unit with phone wireless mirroring all together.

Ok those are stock lights. What all did you put in them? Where did you get these items? Where are you pulling power for the u bars? Are they on all the time like a daytime driving light? This is the first ddl that doesnt look tacky on a sle.

Heres some more info for ya Crooks, all the running light and signal pull there power and input from the oem signal harness, just spliced into the light harness and added the plug for the tubes, and yes they are on all the time when its in drive. As for the projector drl, its now hids and i added an inline switch so i can control when they come on.

 

Heres the links for the stuff i added

It's the idea that counts hahaha

 

Guess what!? I got it working!! no thanks to kodiakz, useless guy seriously. called the manufacture directly and got it all sorted out in less than 10 minutes. working as what I want right now.

 

Waiting for the nose camera to arrive then I will move my current dash cam to my canopy as a rear view mirror display / recording and the nose cam will have a splitter to a recording unit and also a signal to watch what is at the front.

 

This is going to be badass!! I dont know if I want to mirror my phone over, going to have a lot more wiring,.... need RCA to HDMI, need that powered. but if I do this, i can also have a HDMI toggling switch to have more inputs.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
