Well, I finally got around to installing my 16-17 LED headlights. A huge thanks goes out to @zmnypit for fabricating the adapter harnesses.

Where are you at in IL.  I also did the headlight taillight mod with Zympit harness.  I like your LED bar above the license plate.  What brand and size is that?  Was it difficult to fit?

Very interested as well!

Joliet area. Lightbar is a 20" Chrome Series single row from Rough Country.

Not difficult to install. Rough Country gives you multiple mounting options. You can mount from the ends of the lightbar or from the slit that is manufactured into the bottom of the housing. I used the slit with the 90 degree mounting tabs to install mine. I couldn't use the end mounting because there wasn't enough room. You have to remove the plastic insert piece in the bumper in order to mount the lightbar there. I needed mine recessed, due to not having a lot of garage space, so the lightbar couldn't stick out very far. My license plate was relocated about 3" lower and it also hides the 90 degree mounting tabs. I will try and get some pictures up close for you tomorrow. Below is the link for the lightbar.

Here are the pics I promised. As you can see, pretty easy install, fits easily recessed in the plastic trim I removed from the bumper, and license plate hides all mounting hardware.

Looks good man, what did you wire it to? I was hoping to mount mine (whenever i decide to do it) further into the bumper so it seems more hidden.

Thanks. Keep in mind, the bumper is still back there, it's just recessed. The plastic trim insert that I removed fills that recessed area. My lightbar is as far back as it can go. It still sticks out approximately 1". 

I wired it to my switches that I installed in the area where the factory trailer brake would be mounted (mine came with the cubby hole).

    • Looking for help!   2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 5.3l 4x4 8l90 61k miles - truck is in Arizona, was over 110 outside on Monday when this whole situation transpired. Never had any major issues with transmission until this point:   Truck sat outside my construction office for approx 1 hour idling before I realized, ran around the job site wrapping some things up for the day and then left. Went to get food and sat in the drive through for approx 30 minutes idling. As soon as I pull out of the drive through and onto the main road, rear tires lock up and feels like transmission fell out of the truck. Shifted to park, shut the truck off and tried again, same thing happened. Was able to reverse into parking lot (truck slammed into reverse). Let the truck sit turned off for 10 minutes before trying again, but it continued to happen. Towed truck back to my house. Highest the trans temps reached was 198.   Friday, after work I start looking into the situation. Truck sat in my driveway untouched all week. Truck is now driving like normal, transmission doesn’t get over 185 degrees when trying to heat it up. Got up to 60 multiples times with no issues, no issues accelerating, only down shifted hard into first one time at 185 degrees. Does anyone have any insight? Never through a code or a check engine light. Truck has never been used to tow either. No transmission services at this point.
    • Atlas won.   I know better, but I did it anyway. I took a compressed air line with a chuck and rubber tip and jammed it in the open EGR port. The port was clear as far as I could see, and as far as I could poke with a flexible wire, but that doesn't mean it's not clogged.   Compressed air blew back at me along with a cloud of black. Oops. I didn't have the rubber tip seated in there all the way. Jammed it up in there some more and squeezed the chuck. PSI was set to 120. Poof! It blew back at me again. Third time...pfffffttssssssspffffffsssfffffff, face full of carbon, and then, kind of a thud..and the air stopped spraying back at me. It was now exiting the exhaust with a low shhhhhh sound as it flowed through the pipe. Something broke free. I pressurized the port again, and air flowed.   Made my day.   Long story short on this problem, it's fixed. Something was really blocking the EGR passages down low, and compressed air blew it apart. I don't recommend this as who knows what debris was sent where. But it's allowed me to move forward, mentally, and onto the next problems I need to get this little S-Blazer going down the road properly again.  
    • Your truck lowered, looks good. I'm happy with the stance on this. I may need the extra ground clearance given my location/situation.
    • With this new pan, do you still use the same procedure to check the level? Its a deeper pan and our trucks do not have a fill tube/dipstick. So fill till fluid runs out the check plug?
