The crash avoidance module in the pickups is not capable to HUD info as you would need to replace the crash avoidance module with the SUV's HUD unit. There are atleast 2 different p/n's for the HUD as GM has made revisions of which I don't what the changes are from my research though but a big price difference between them with the superceded p/n. By the looks of everything, there will be some needed modifications to the pickup dashes to get this to work and look decent. I haven't been able to test stuff as I'm still waiting on my cluster as it's still on backorder. The SUV defroster vent panel and cluster visor MAY work WITH modification of the pickup's dash behind its cluster visor but again haven't been able to test yet. As for where to mount the switch, I'm still looking for ideas since I have the trailer brake controller, there is limited space for a clean install.

I agree..it appears the defroster panel has nothing to do with the hud system. There are separate part #'s for the defroster showing w and w/o crash avoidance. Same goes for the visor. So hopefully there will be room to mount the hud module. There is a chance the cluster visor from the SUV's would fit but would need to take a chance on ordering one or study it closely. I personally could never cut the existing visor to have it look 'right'. Then there is the wiring and switch problem to figure out.

Thanks to Mr. Chris White I now have a Denali gauge cluster in my 2016 Sierra SLT. Once he did his programming it was plug and play. Everything works just like it does in My wife's 2016 Yukon Denali

You’ve been asking and we’ve been listening. Granted it took longer than anyone would have liked we are changing up our operations a bit to hopefully make things easier on everyone; especially the con

Here's pics of the area in my Yukon with forward collision alert and without HUD.63c88b37fcc992f26e1d45080fd78499.jpg

Here's where the switch goes in the suvs. On the silver trim under the vent.

That's very helpful thanks..Does the dash pad to the defrost panel 'step down' at all. On the trucks the visor stops short of the actual dash then steps down to the defroster grille. I'm afraid it would make for a very tough retrofit...to look right anyway. The switch looks to be an easier mod.

 

To clarify..The crash avoidance in the trucks is actually in the defroster grill, not the dash visor as is the case in the SUV's.

The crash avoidance and the HUD are in the same location which is why putting the SUV defroster panel in the pickups should work theoretically. Getting the SUV cluster visor to fit is where the modification needs to be made to the pickups dash pad is my assumption.

Yes, I would say it steps down.

My crash avoidance hole appears to be in the same location. It may only be a matter of making it larger.

Anyone have pics of the HUD cluster visor? If its the same as that one, all you would need is the truck defroster panel if you don't have one.

That's only if the the truck defroster panel and SUV defroster panel are interchangeable..as well as the cluster visor panels. It'd be great if they were...

So ideally if putting hud in a truck you'd need to order the defroster panel and cluster visor from an SUV and hope they work.

What I'm saying is

1) The dashes appear to be completely different. You would need the whole dash to make the visor look right from the suv.

2) The HUD/crash warning hole appears to be in the same location as the truck.

3) If the size of the hole is the same we should be ok

4) If the hole is larger it would only require a little massaging of said hole.

5) Anybody have pics of HUD defroster panel?

I think GTP said mine was a '15.5 based on my VIN. I do have WIFI. How much is programming? I don't need HUD.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Zane · Posted

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
