I see several that say 2015/2016... weird because WAMS says it needs to be year specific.

They are year specific but there are a ton of bad Ebay sellers marketing them as fitting both hence why we won’t start an order without confirming fitment.

Yep! I wouldn’t buy without confirming first.

I took the chance of snatching mine up with plans to resell if fitment wasn’t correct.

2014 is weird because it's really a 14.5, so people might be labeling those 2015. Seems like it's going to be pretty hard to get a 14. Am I incorrect in this assumption? Would a 2015 work since the 14/15 are basically the same year.

Well, huge thanks to Chris White @ White Auto and Media, rcvd & installed my Denali cluster after work today.  Super easy - 2 tools:  15 Torx & 7mm socket.

2016 Denali cluster GM part #84254168 for 2016 GMC/Chevy,  approx $400 new + programming cost.   Best money spent on coolest mod to our trucks.

Contact Chris @ White Auto & Media for programming costs (each one is unique).   My application, total cost (cluster & programming) including all shipping came in @ $700ish.  I purchased a new cluster instead of trying to find a used one.  Just shy of 3 weeks from ordering cluster to installing in truck.

Escalade clusters do not fit in the opening for the trucks or non cadillac SUV's. They also have a grey/white color scheme to them.  The programming is also VERY labor intensive I caution anyone to contact us first prior to even considering putting an escalade cluster in; its a BIG project. 

 

Also please dont let the total price deter you from doing this modification, get a quote from us first as the pricing varies wildly depending on how much you pay for the cluster, if its used etc. I'd say average for this mod with a Denali cluster is $500 total including hardware and I think thats pretty reasonable given its something you'll literally use every time you drive your truck :)

That's strange that they aren't the same.  But good info to know.   Thanks

If you are emailing regarding this service please make sure you are sending 1. Your VIN 2. The clusters you are looking at (we are not suppling part numbers there may be 20 per application so there could be 60 per truck) and we will confirm fitment 3. The condition of the cluster you are looking at so we can quote the pricing. 

 

Thanks!

FAQ – Please read before contacting us – thank you!

 

Q: I have a base model truck will this mod work?

A: Yes we can retrofit program the Denali or smaller color cluster for your application. See the thread from pgamboa regarding the steps needed to make this work properly on your end.

 

Q: I already bought a cluster will it work?

A: That depends on MANY factors, we HIGHLY recommend you contact us first with the part number you are looking at to confirm fitment.

 

Q: How much does this whole shebang cost?

A: We only do programming and the cost varies depending on what cluster you get, the condition, any special requests etc. Typically most people do this mod for around $500 total including cluster.

 

Q: I bought a cluster and plugged it in and now some things dont work, can you program it?

A: We have posted multiple warnings to not plug units into your vehicle until we program them, if you plug it in prior you own it and the tamper flags you created; we wont touch it.

 

Q: Whats the average turnaround time?

A: Typically one weekend or less depending on work load.

 

Q: What part numbers should I be looking for?

A: You want the Denali part number for your EXACT year and specification. If you have a 2016 diesel you need a 2016 diesel cluster. 2015 has two model years effectively 2015 and 2015.5 as always ANY part you are looking at please send us the part number to confirm fitment prior to purchase!

 

Q: I want to move ahead what info do I need to send you to get a quote and check compatibility?

A: Your VIN, the cluster part number you are looking at and its condition.

 

 

Thank you!! :)

    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death. 
    • In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them. 
    • I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.     
    • Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
