Makes me think about just how dirty things can get. I'd really like to have a full set of 4 of those. But, I don't think my wife likes the way they look.

The ebay spacers I bought were made from a custom aluminum extrusion and milled on both mounting surfaces. They were supplied with grade 8 bolts. They were manufactured by a southern California machine shop who sells directly on ebay. I paid about $40. The most popular high priced kit uses plastic spacers.

Link to said spacer?

Where did you get the handle?

I didn't find much on here, but does anyone have any opinions on hood-bug-rock guards. Do they work well? I personally don't like the look of them. I have a black truck so it wouldn't stick out too much if I got a smoked one. I'm just wondering because I'm driving cross country in my 6 month old silverado. Last time I drove across country was in a Nissan titan. I noticed a lot of nicks and scratches on the truck especially the hood. I've looked up a few brands. Not crazy about the ones that attach with clips. So I'm just wondering if people have had good luck with any? any certain brands?

 

Thanks

I did it per my post #9 here. http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/162734-foglights-on-with-high-beams/page-1

 

The method I posted gives full control of the fog lights any time the ignition is on. The exception being that the fog lights will come on with high beams regardless of whether the fog light button is pressed.

 

Others have taken the method and tied other circuits to get "always on" fog lights.

I ordered it with the iridium surround and ran with that for a little while to see if I liked it. Then I popped out the inner grille and put it in my chrome surround like I originally intended. I haven't ever seen another one like it either. I get some head scratchers in other Sierras that obviously haven't seen one before either.

 

I bought mine a year ago when they were only offering them with the painted surround. Couldn't just buy the inner AT Grille. Now they come with an unpainted surround that you have to get painted, for a bit less money I hope? You might be able to just get the inner AT Grille without the surround through a body shop now? They were not available that way a year ago.

Find the hardwire radar detector thread and you will find your on with the key pin. wire both together. Also do the reverse with cargo and bed lights

Jake, in that thread somewhere, somebody came up with a way to do it.

 

But it seems to me, someday you're going to want to start the truck without the lights coming on, and with D2's being 3000 plus lumens, and not street legal, you would want to control them with a switch of some kind. Oncoming traffic might be blinded by those.
