So I decided to peek inside the the top of the jumper seat today and I snapped some pictures for you guys. Here is my piece of the puzzle.   It looks like the lower portion of the arm rest h

I purchased the upper part of the armrest from the dealer for $490 Cdn$.  The bottom part apparently is multiple part and was super expensive (i think about $1000).   Anyways, it was a bit of wor

I will give a summary of what I did.  Not being mechanical at all, it wasn't easy but very doable.    The first step was to take the plastic side panels off the console.  Right off the bat,

Congrats !!! I’m going to install mine tomorrow also. I’ve been hearing these are getting harder and harder to obtain from the dealer and gmparts places on the web.

Thanks! And yes, they are getting much harder to find. I waited over a month for mine.

I ordered from sdparts.com in October.....have heard nothing.  Glad you guys are getting on with your project.  Just wondering if there is a place (email or web site) that we could give our dissatisfaction to GM about this situation....

I canceled my order from sdparts after waiting a month and a half. Ordered from GM parts outlet.net and got it in 3 days.

Got it installed. A slight PITA, but it’s in. Only casualties were a couple of clips (got more from OReileys) and ripped one of the plastic tabs that the clips attach to and had to glue the clip to the tab. Nothing  TOO bad.

Got my replacement arm rest installed tonight. I agree, it’s kind of a PITA but it’s done and it’s good to have that storage back.. it was worth it..

FYI, I was told that armrest 84647286 is discontinued and is being superseded by 84756948. Of course on backorder, but I will let everyone know when it arrives.

I replaced the entire center seat in my work truck with one that came out of a salvage yard.  Now I have the full storage of the higher trim models in my WT.    If you only replace the armrest (top portion) then you don't get the under seat locking storage... right?

 

The unit I picked up includes the power and USB outlet for the back seat passengers, but the wiring harness is not set up to plug this in on the work truck.   I figure I'll just leave those plugs dead.  My main objective was to get the storage.  But if anybody knows an easy way to hook up these outlets so they work, I'd appreciate it.    

 

By the way... if anyone else is looking swap the center seat as well like I did, I searched for it on car-part.com and ended up finding it from Schram Auto Parts in Michigan.  It cost me $400 including shipping to California.  It's an easy swap (4 bolts hold it in) but does require that you unbolt the drivers and passenger seat to get to the rear bolts for the center seat.  It took me about an hour or so.  The GM part number for the entire seat is: 202.GM8M19.  I now have a center seat with no storage now that I'd be willing to sell to someone cheap if you want it!

Sorry if I missed it somewhere but do the replacements (84647286) have USB plugs inside?

Also, anybody know where they are actually in stock?

I didn't have any luck with online retailers. Had to bite the bullet and order from the dealer. It's on critical back order so in order to get in line for the part My dealer said I would need to special order the part and prepay. I did that. They gave me wholesaler pricing at $328. Then said the parts manager would open a spec case, but needed a VIN that uses that part. Talked to my service writer and he found an LT on the lot with center storage so I used that VIN. Now I'm patiently waiting. Ordered mine Dec 17- waiting for update. Will advise once received. If anyone hears about anyone having in stock, lmk.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.

      - I like the outside but not as much as the Chevrolet.  They ICE'd the EV styling and it works, but I think exterior goes to Chevy on this one.     - SLE and SLT dead = Not.  Surprising.  Fits into the rest of the GMC lineup like this which (aside from Pro) matches the rest of the family.  Elevation, AT4, Denali.     - Interior.  Sophisticated Malaise era.  Why do I say Malaise?  Drawn with a ruler.  Rectangles everywhere.  Looks very premium though.
