$50 and under modifications

I went the 10 22 route and also used just a wire to jump 26 brown and 26 pink to have the cargo lights and reverse lights on at same time.

Hmmm. 26-26... I might have to do that one too.

It helps a lot at night when you unlock the truck. Brightens up the area more.

Any more info on this?

It was fairly easy to do. The underside of the console lid just pops off, gently pull from a corner and slide a trim tool around prying it up and it pops right off. The top piece where the wireless charger is is held on by four screws, take those out and it pulls out from the rear. Lift up from the rear and slide forward, careful though, there's 2 hooks on either side of the release handle, I broke one of mine. Once you have it, just cut a hole where you want the wireless charger to sit, run the cable down and plug it in to one of the USB ports in the console. Then just screw and snap the parts back together. Really simple, whole thing took me about an hour, if that long.

Did the JDM A Star LED license plate, reverse, and cab light bulbs this weekend. The bulbs themselves were a good price, are BRIGHT, and look great! The License plate and reverse lights were super simple to install- The cab lights were a totally different story. I didn't have pliers with me, it took nearly 30 minutes and a lot of swearing and bruised fingertips to remove the cab light incandescent bulbs. For whatever reason, the "twist off" motion was insanely hard to do.

I relocated my stock antenna this morning. Didn't lose any stations and to top it off it was FREE.

I also took some left over floating floor padding and used it to line my tool box. Yet another FREE mod.

Ha ha I feel your pain! I went through the same thing with the cargo light, it wasn't twisting and I was afraid of breaking it but I got it done! I did the JDM ASTAR as well for reverse, license plate, and cargo. I want to do the break lights and turn signals too.

Here's my video that I posted of the JDM lights on my truck

Wheres ur antenna now?

10 and 22 are correct.

This is what it is very important to know what slots you are going into, color wire scheme, and schematic to verify. It can get tricky looking at a schematic and you forget that sometimes you could be looking at a mirror image or the mating connector.

Here is a better picture showing it

Radio antenna

Below: You can do this with pretty much any late model and classic GM truck. On some, the Tahoe/Yukon has a cover with no hole so no grommet required.
