Does anyone know if GM makes illuminated door sills for the Sierra & Silverado? I know they made them for the GMT900 bodystyle & I found some for the new Yukons & Suburbans but couldn't find any illuminated ones for the trucks, just the standard logo ones.

Or does anyone know if the Yukon sill plates fit a Sierra?

I've been wanting something like this for a while now. It would go so well with my floor lights. I'm actually looking at getting some of the non illuminated sills and cutting out the areas I was to light up and putting some frosted acrillyc or something. It'll take some work and time (maybe, or maybe it's a lot easier than I think it will be) so I'm waiting till I have time to be able to do it.

EDIT: I would actually wire mine to work with my floor lights and change colors as well.

Ever since I saw it for the GMT900 I hated myself for not getting them. Now I don't know if it's possible to on this bodystyle, at least not yet. I have a thing for lights, I still need to do my whole interior and under the truck too but this'll be a good start. Very clean imo. If you can get that worked out I'd be very interested. Colorchanging would be badass.

 

edit* Ryan, I'm not sure if those would work they seem to be for Camaros or Corvettes?

If you do anything under the truck keep it at a rock light kit for the wheel wells and under the center of the truck. I plan to do that but not till its lifted.

 

If I can get the color changing thing worked out I'll let you know. I'm a light fanatic as well. Check out the beginning of my build thread and you'll see my old Yukon that I only had for 2.5 years but did more light mods than anything haha. I told myself I wouldn't do any to this truck but that was several mods ago lol.

I'm really hoping I can get the door sill thing to work. Also hoping that they come out with one for the rear doors so I can put something can there too.

 

as far as your interior. Get the same kit I did. I highly recommend it and have never had a problem with it in my truck or when I had the Yukon. Its $104.97 but does ALOT of different things. Definitely worth it

Hey guys I started my own search cuz I had the same idea and the only thing I could find is for a suburban. When I compare they look really similar but who knows, here is the link

Is anyone available to be a guinea pig and buy them and let me know if they work or not :P

I'd bet money that the ones from the Tahoe/Yukon would fit. It's the same platform and the same doors. It may take a little work to get the wiring right, but I bet they're the same fit.

I'd be down to try it but for almost $300 I'm not comfortable buying something that may or may not fit.

The front doors are not the same between the Silverado/Sierra, and the Tahoe/Yukon anymore. If the sills match though I don't know.

I called the dealership listed in the eBay listing, but he said he couldn't say for sure if they would fit or not... might be one of those things where you will have to get your hands on a pair to know for sure. I gave him my VIN, and he did come up with part # 23114162 - Which are pretty much basic door sills with a little nicer insert.

 

Cheapest place I've found so far is ShopChevyParts - There was even a thread on them here a few months ago, but the pics are gone....

Just need to find a buddy that has a Tahoe or suburban and try to fit it. Our go to a dealer and take a look and you may be able to see just from looking at out if they might swap

GM Parts catalog DOES list illuminated sill plates for 2015-2016 Silverado/Sierra. Group 21.506. I don't have access to P/N's anymore so I'll have to check at work tomorrow

I've installed them in Suburbans and they look way cool! Expensive!

      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

      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.

      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. 😉
