I waited a long time to do this upgrade on my truck because I didn’t want to have to cut and splice the wiring in my truck and wanted everything to work as if the console were factory. So when I saw t

I am looking for help with building/buying a wire harness for a 2021 GMC 3500 HD center console. My truck came with the jump seat but I swapped for a center console. I am looking for help with what harness to buy and if there is a connector under my dash somewhere to make the wireless charging and bose subwoofer work? My jump seat harness came from under the passenger seat. Please help if you can. Thanks.

Hello all, I have the 2018 silverado 3500HD turbo diesel with the black interior.  My question is for those that have performed this swap, what part number did you all get for the console as i have tried and they say it was not an option, so if someone can provide me this part number i would sure appreciate it and thank you.

Is your 4wd a floor shifter?  If it is, that is why they don't have a part number. Otherwise, this VIN is from a 2018 3500HD with a center console: 

  • VIN
    1GC4K0EY7JF244270
The parts department should be able to look up the center console parts from that one.

@pgamboa recently purchased a T1 and I'm sure he's in the process of developing a harness to streamline this (if he hasn't already) as he did all of this for the K2s.  Reach out to him via his website.

Regarding the factory sub, unlike the 900 series trucks with the Bose amp in the console, the T1s have the Bose amp on the rear wall like the K2s.  Since that is the case, I assume the sub connector is part of the body harness that runs all under the carpet.  If that is the case, to add the factory sub, you'd just have the add 2 wires from the connector at the amp and run it under the seal plates/carpet/passenger seat to the console, just like on the K2s with you sourcing the opposite sub connector, the corresponding terminals for both connectors and obviously the wiring.  I don't know if they made different amps though, i.e. one with a sub out put and another without.  If they did make different amps in that aspect, then you'd need a different amp as well. 

IMO, if you're going to go through all that work and depending on your end goal(s), I'd recommend adding an aftermarket sub as it will sound and perform better than the OEM sub any day.

Most parts guys aren't smart enough to remove filters to find parts.  If you gave them your VIN, they won't find it without removing the filters.  Just as @Chris Stierman mentioned above, as long as you don't have the floor 4wd selector, you should be able to get one unless they are still dealing with backorder issues.

I was wondering if there is a way I could upgrade the USB ports in my 2014 silverado 1500 High Country to better charging ones? 

Because they cant keep up with charging my phone while im using google maps, the charge still goes down when connected.

Phil, just wanted to say thanks for the harness and video.  I swapped out my jump seat for the center console over the weekend and worked like a champ.  Also added the blue LED lights along the side as another user did and those look great as well.

I have tried to message you, Phil, but it will not let me. I know I have read that center console are on back order, but how much do you sell them for? Looking to do this upgrade on my truck and can’t find out what parts I all need. Thank you.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
