So are you going to order it and try it out?

 

my only real question would be if the rear defroster would work correctly, I would hope it still just plugs in like the stock one piece glass does to work. If this works I would be really tempted to put this in my truck.

rear defroster shouldn't be an issue, its only one plug in the same location I believe, I have to wait to do mine, i'm currently working on another project, but I plan to do it, I figured I would throw my research out there to bounce off people. First i would do all the electrical and test power to the rear. If successful motor next then window since its the most expensive part.

Let me know, I know from speaking with the chief engineer over the GM truck division that my truck has all of the wiring hardware in place as well. Hoping since it is nothing more than a on/off and not a function controlled thru the BCM that it is nothing more than putting the overhead panel in, removing the rear seats and cutting out the rear glass and then have the new slider glass bonded in and then finish up the wiring in the rear.

 

I would think worst case you could hardwire in the wiring if needed as well.

The right fuse box doesn't have plugs for the fuses and the overhead console doesn't have the slider switch pigtail.

Hmm, the engineer told me the pigtail is up there as long as you have a LTZ (highest Chevy option package) or a SLT (highest Sierra option package). I've had the panel open before when I was trying to wire in my radar detector, but I don't remember what is up there. Sounds like we may need someone with the over head to open it up so we know which wires to look for and how the factory harness is setup.

How do you open it up?

Yes you could be right with those upper packages, I was speaking on just my SLE, to access the pigtail, open sunglasses holder and pop the middle trim panel with led light down.

Thanks, I may have some time later on, if I do, I will check and report back for the SLTs

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
