Has anyone seen or read anything on these?

 

http://www.kbcarstuff.com/H11-h8-h16-philips-x-treme-ultinon-led-bulbs-p/12834unix2-h11.htm

 

I've done my fogs and am curious how these might work compared to the silverstar ultras I put in when I bought the truck. I don't want to have to mod for HID.

Thanks

 

 

 

 

"Have to mod for HID"?? Sorry, a little confused...I have a 2014 Silverado LT and I have HID's, I didn't have to "mod" anything to get them to work....They're DDM tuning 35w HID's.....

I've seen drilling housings for wires, mounting balasts etc... I just want a simple plug and play bulb.

pretty sure someone tried these and they were crap.

Thanks!! I'll stick with the SSUs until something better comes along

We have experience with these on the site's Project Sierra.

Xtreme HID with the Phillips bulbs. Includes two ballasts, a relay line to battery and they work very well. All plug and play and requires zero modifications.

 

Edit: I realize it's HID and not LED, but just commenting on another option.

No drilling or any modifications required?

Did you put HID bulbs in your halogen headlights? :nono:

Yeah I did, and I blind the shit out of everyone, just like the thousands of other cars with HIDs on the road. Same goes for lifted trucks with projectors that are not readjusted.

 

You got a problem with that? Nanny.

Did you get any or need any additional harness's from DDM ? Not sure if I need the error code one or either/both of them.

 

Thanks in Advance

Whoa watch out, we have a bad-ass over here. So basically you just want to be an ass-hole just because some other ass-holes do? Go ahead, be a dick to the little old couple driving towards you with poor eye sight through their thick bifocals on a dimly lit road. People like you are part of the reason I have a light bar behind my grill (the main reason is when I am down at the ranch).

 

Way to carry your self in an adult manner there Chuck Norris...

Doing it his way is the wrong way to do it and it is illegal. Do it right, not the ricer way...

All you need is the 35w kit, error code eliminators (they come in pairs).

 

Enjoy!! :driving:

 

Disregard all the little haters and nanny's who tell you what you are doing is not the "right way" or "illegal".

 

Do it YOUR way.

 

All these "nanny's" need to be doing something more productive if they really want everyone to be safe, go ahead and catch bad guys who are driving under the influence, go catch the speed racers who are lane switching causing accidents, or the people on their cell phones not paying attention.

 

I've been on the other end where cars have HID's and are aimed at me from behind or the other side of the street, let me tell ya one thing, IT ISNT THAT BAD. GET OVER IT.

 

Adjust your headlights if need be (like I did) and enjoy your truck.

I ordered an LTZ so it will have the Projector lights and I plan to adjust the lights accordingly. I don't see a erason to buy Aftermarket Projector lights vs using the stock projector lights.

Do you remember was it the BOW3 or the Capacitors you ordered for the Error Codes?

      No 12v outlets in 2026 gmc Sierra

      By PhilB · Posted

      It is possible to add your own 12v outlet to your truck.  Check out this video:   I verified via GM Upfitters that pin 31 is the same on the 1500 trucks.  The wire is GM part number 84779405.   You can get the GM 12v outlet from Amazon  https://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Accessory-Receptacle-25774623-13549530/dp/B0F1H9YRGF EWAY 12 Volt Power Adapter for GM   https://www.amazon.com/EWAY-Chevrolet-Silverado-Cigarette-Ignition/dp/B0915RRW6Q/ref=sr_1_1?   I just haven't figured out a good place to put the 12v outlet in my truck.   Some people are getting USB-C to 12V adapters  https://www.amazon.com/WYMECT-Cigarette-Lighter-Socket-Adapter/dp/B0F87WNQKB/ref=sr_1_1_sspa? Not sure if they provide the correct amperage that a device like a tire inflator would need.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
