Leather wrapped shifter swap?

[country_09]

 

I don't know if this is the one that he used but here is a brown leather one from an Escalade:

Bringing this back up.  Has anyone tried to put the NNBS Escalade shifter in the +14's?  I really like the chrome trim and like the stitching facing me.

It's been tried, and the switches do not interchange. The handle will bolt up, but the transmission will not shift with the GMT900 lever. I've been contemplating getting a chrome handle and see if I can use the tip on the correct handle.

It physically won't shift out of gear, or the buttons wouldn't work?

Buttons didn't work

That’s easy then. Lol. Just cut off 14+ plug and splice to the correct wires on the esky shifter.

Nice. 

 

It looks like the older escalade shift levers have 4 wires while the new ones only have two.....

[2017SierraSLT]

The original shifter from my 2017 has 4 wires. Two black, two white.

Anyone install the leather wrapped shifter on an 8 speed? Doesn’t matter if I buy a Yukon leather wrapped shifter vs a Denali truck shifter?

When I look on GMPARTSDIRECT it shows that the part# 22857352 comes with the Chevy LTZ or GMC Denali trim.  I have an LTZ but no leather shifter so whats the deal there? Is this part# the leather one for sure?  It also shows that this number fits the cadillac as well so its probably leather but why would they say an LTZ should already have it? I bought the truck new so I don't think it was messed with.  Maybe it is some kind of appearance package...

My 2018 6.2L 8-speed needs the 4 wire leather shift lever. 2 white wires, 2 black wires.

I just performed this upgrade on my 2017 SLT with the 6 speed trans. using GM part number 22857352. Wholesale cost of $69. I was able to get this done in 20 minutes, and without removing the steering column shrouds. Mine has the tilt/telescoping column. I did have to remove the large panel under the column to access the connector at the base of the column. A T-30 Torx bit, used with a 1/4" ratchet removed the lever screw, which is a tight fit, and is fully Locktited from the factory. As stated before, I kinda wish the tip of the lever was chromed as with the GMT-900's, but it is far nicer than the base lever. It's the small details that add up.

Do you recall how many wires on the leather column shifter? My 2018 8 speed has 4 wires, 2 white 2 black. I was about to order same part number but not sure if it will work with 8 speed.

FYI - Installed leather Denali column shift lever part number 22857352. An eBay sell has it for $50 shipped. 

 

Install was easy. Shift into L to access T30 Torx bolt. Pull knee kick panel under steering wheel to access 4 wire (2 white 2 black) connection. 

 

This works fine with my 2018 and 8L90 transmission. L or M mode changes gears as intended and tow haul button works as well. 

 

The leather is nice and matches my steering wheel. This should have come factory with leather wrapped wheel. 

 

If your truck has a 4 wire connection for transmission column shift then the above part number should work.
