I have a 2017 diesel unit in stock

Have you had any luck making it backwards compatible for a 2016 yet?

Posted

Nope not doable.

Dang. Guess I'll keep waiting for my Tahoe cluster.

Are the Tahoe clusters still on backorder?

As of last Thursday, mine still is.

I've had similar experiences with him (the same eBay seller) in the past. Seems to come up short on the personality/customer service side. I got a "sorry, no" when I asked about doing one of the knew Denali clusters in my 2015 Yukon. He's good at what he knows, but won't entertain or help you understand why something "outside the box" for him wouldn't work. Years ago, I was able to convince him to add a trans temp gauge, Denali bezel and needles to a 140mph police cluster for my 2007 classic Sierra.

Yeah this is the same company that was selling 2014 clusters and stating they fit 2014-2016.... All he has to reply with is ONE part number for the correct model year and we can handle the rest. My suspicion is they are 2014's.. These are factory plant overruns so literally all he has to do is walk out and look at the P/N on the crate or the build dates or simply the back of one of the units in a crate; I guess he just doesn't want to sell you one?

I'd hazard a guess its because he cant do it. He apparently tells our customers all the time that what we do is impossible won't work etc from what I've been told (I have no problem with the guy at all, it's just hearsay IE fighting customers on purchases). Yet we still get quite a few from him so I don't know?

 

It could also be because his fiancé/GF/whatever was posting here posing as a customer and I called her out on it and she left LOL

That's what so disappointing about it. Just because one person may not have the knowledge to do something doesn't mean someone else cannot. Seems like a poor business attitude.

 

That's why I'm glad for guys like GTPprix. He has the patience to hear the same questions and their variants at nauseam and still give explanations.

Oh I have my moments believe me LOL The thing I don't understand is I guess he's refusing a sale to begin with basically but he literally has to do less work (doesn't have to program it etc) just box it up and ship it? Dunno but thats too bad since he could potentially be selling a LOT more of them.

I'm wondering where he sources them from. Quite a few are marked as "new".

 

 

Factory overruns, salvage yards typically bid on them but other businesses can as well; maybe I should start LOL

    • Some clarification may help with some of these issues.   - Rev Industries is/was the division of BAK (now Realtruck) that makes covers under the OEM names.  So if you see one with a Ford logo on it, or if you are buying the GM Accessories cover, you are essentially buying a BAK G2 cover with different branding.   - Rev Industries now markets under RealTruck "Advantage."   - As of May 1, 2025, the Advantage covers now have a 5 year warranty.  Anything before that was a 36/36K warranty.   - Parts for the covers are available from Realtruck or BAK.  The email address to reach them is [email protected] or you can call them at 818-365-9000   - If the entire cover has to be replaced, you have to go through your local GM dealer.  Service dept opens an RO, notes the damage and submits it as a warranty claim.  Keep your paperwork handy so they can confirm when you purchased it and it's within the warranty timeframe.  Once the warranty claim is approved, Parts orders the replacement cover.  When it arrives at the dealership, service will remove and install the new one for free as labor is included under warranty.   - The Advantage covers are not the latest and greatest Gen 3 covers.  They still use the old school clamps, elevator bolts, etc...If you want the newer technology, consider buying your cover in the aftermarket world.  That way, if you have an issue you can deal directly with the manufacturer.   - Finally, RealTruck has a program with many of their authorized dealers that doubles the warranty to 10 years if the authorized dealer does the install.     Hope this helps.
    • Welcome to the group!  My '22 just crossed 150K miles.  Runs perfectly.  Oil pump belt will be done in the next 30 days or so and onward hopefully for another 150K.  Love the truck.
    • Still looks like a rivet to me in the pics, I don't see a nut and none of the pics show the head of the screw. But if you says so.....
    • Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!  
    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!
