That’s awesome on the mirror!

Added LED light strips to the inside of the topper so that I can see in the bed when it's dark.  I already had the factory under the bed rail cargo lights, so I just tapped into those.  Wired in disconnects so that I can disconnect them if I ever need to remove the topper.  They are LED rope lights from Cabelas.  Had adhesive backing on them which worked ok to get them attached to the carpeted headliner, but once the sun hit the topper and heated it up the tape started letting go so I used hot glue every foot or so to keep them up.  It's brighter than daylight in there now!

 

Next step is tap into the dash cargo light switch circuit and add a switch for the lights inside the topper.

UPDATE:

 

GMC Sierra owners stay away from these taillights. They can only be found in a few places on the internet for a reason. The Winjet company NEVER released these in the United States. The ones you can find on the internet are from china/japan where cheap sh*t isn't regulated. I spoke with the Winjet company directly and they advised me they were never released in the U.S. because of multiple electrical issues. I ordered some before i knew this, and found out the hard way. 

 

Moral of the story, stick to the lights that have reviews and have been tested.

Texas heat unfortunately has me getting up really early or working later into the evening to mod the truck. Sorry for the crappy pics but just finished my install of the new heated steering wheel, and leather shifter

HaHa - you complained about the heat while you installed a heated steering wheel!    ;>)

You have the part number on the mirror still? Is it the '13-'15 or the '16+?

I don’t recall the part # but it was something like this. I had it installed but went back since the viewable area is smaller.

Hmm...I'm already pretty limited being 6" lower than normal. Maybe I'll think on that a bit. Thanks Phil.

So my weekend was BUSY, so I'm posting now, while I'm waiting on parts for my aircraft.

 

Friday, while I was at work, can't take my phone in with me, my wife texts me, and our message exchange went like this:

"Can you wash the truck today, for a parade tomorrow?" (saw it at lunch)

"UMMMM.........." (5 minute delay)

"NO!!!!!!"

"Thought they were using Tyler's truck/trailer?"

Of course, I got no answer until I got home, and then "it's too dark out."  Midnight, with DAYLIGHT bulbs lighting up the driveway, at 66ºF?  Ended up waiting until 6am, my son and I went to the wash facility on Edwards AFB, spent about $5.  Did an okay job for being the high pressure sprayer and "scrub/suds brush.  (Picture will be posted/added at lunch tonight)  Since we were on base, she wanted us to pick up a few things to borrow for the parade, which even furthered my late arrival to the "lineup area."  Was supposed to be in Leona Valley by 0730, but arrived at 0815.  AND TYLER'S TRUCK/TRAILER WAS THERE!!!!  :mad:

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • 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?
