I’m new to this site. Trying to get ahold of PGamboa about plug and play harness for console swap. 

If you click on his picture on one of his posts, it will take you to his profile. There, click the envelope with the arrow to instant message him! Or maybe he can PM you if he sees this @pgamboa Good luck :)

Huge shout out to everyone in this thread for all the leg work and effort. Especially @pgamboa  The harness worked flawlessly and all the info found here was crucial in getting everything I needed for this retrofit.

Hey Phil,

 

I recently purchased a 2014-2015 console with the 3 usb hubs. I have not removed the center console yet as I just got the console on 2/21/2019. I have a few questions id like to ask you about this install and of course purchase your wiring harness. I currently drive a 2016 z71 1500 LT. I think the 14-15 have a different harness for the jumpseat under it. Ive watched all your youtube videos and you seem to have the same truck as me. I sent you an email before inquiring about this as I didn't know if I wanted to spend the money but I found a killer deal on a console so I pulled the trigger. I left a comment on your youtube video as well. Looking forward to your reply!

I just made the transition to the full console using pgamboa's pnp harness. This particular harness makes life so easy in that things are just as it says plug and play. His youtube video was very informative and step by step. Ya'll check this guy out if you havent already. Hes the man and knows his stuff!

I appreciate all the feedback posted by those that have purchased a harness or console from me. I enjoy seeing the upgrades come to fruition and seeing all the pics! Keep them coming!

For anyone looking to perform this upgrade, please be patient with me. I am working around the clock to improve lead times for harness builds with hopes to get caught up. My response to emails, PMs and threads are also longer than usual... so please don’t think I’m ignoring ya :)

Thanks everyone!!

@pgamboa customer service was beyond this world. Answered every phone call, every text very helpful glad I decided to upgrade to center console . So far I have done the console, changed my emblems, added a sunroof and added a switch blade under the tail gate pictures will be bellow.

You added a sunroof?  I have to ask, was that a big ordeal, both cost and overall?

WOW! I installed one & it cost me $1500. Your roof looks larger also.

@Rmiles2314 it only costed me around $600 I don’t remember where at but they did an amazing job. Not a project I would want to do myself.

Yeah mine would not be square if I did it myself lol!  Looks great!

    • I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps. 
    • Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.
    • 10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O. 
    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
