Which one is that? How is it installed?

It is an Aeroskin  made by Lund part # 322168, smoke in color.  $48 on flea bay. It is held on with 3M tape. Had one on my TB and never had any trouble with it.

First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

I know you didn't ask me, but I have the Borla S-type as well, and LOVE it.  Perfect deep tone, without being to loud.  It's loudest at cold start obviously.

I got rid of the dealership logo’d rear mud flaps and installed the GM molded splash guards. I also removed the vinyl letters on the tailgate that the dealer installed. I also stopped by the Xpel dealer to talk about PPF and ceramic coating.

Get the ceramic coating for sure. Best to have it done while truck/paint is new.  I had mine done in November when I bought my truck, and it still beads up every time it rains. I got a 2 year coating, and will get it done again after 2 years.  Worth every penny.  Truck looks brand new every time it gets washed.

was this easy to do or do you have to pull the entire console out to get wire underneath?

You could've bought a multi port usb

Got the fog lights programmed this morning, everything seems to be working as intended. Dealer never charged for the service either.

Tech had to call GM and give them the activation code that came with kit. GM then sent tech a text saying that what ever they have to do is done. Tech then connects computer to the OBD port and goes through a series of prompts, after that everything worked, fog lamp icon on dash also comes on. Took longer for GM to text back than anything. I already had lights and all wiring done before I took it in.

Apparently the fog lights require a dealer "flash"

I recently dropped one of the air box screws when putting my AEM filter in and it took prayer to find it.

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

      You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
