I installed mine according to the install video and have had zero oncoming cars flash me. Correctly installed the power cord will be facing down and the LED bulbs will be at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'cloc

Low beam bulbs are H11

High beams are 9005

 

I just installed a 4 piece set of LED lights from Sealight on my '19 Silverado Custom Trailboss. 

Just make sure you buy mini or low profile bulbs as most of the LED bulbs have the large cooling fans with heat sinks mounted on the back of each bulb and you won't be able to reinstall the dust covers.

 

 

Whatever you buy, make sure the bulbs are low profile as there's not as much room directly behind the bulbs like on previous years. 

My '14 Silverado Rally 2 I just traded in had room for the large cooling fans on the rear of the bulbs. But this isn't the case with the '19's. 

 

These are the ones I just installed in my truck. 

I bought the 9005/H11 4piece set. 

What a difference in color and brightness.. 110% better.

Hope this gives you an idea of what you need to change your headlights out.

It looks like a lot more glare coming off the right side.  Maybe it's your camera angle, but if it's your beam pattern oncoming drivers are going to hate you.

Hey Daverado,

Naaaa.. no one hates me yet. ?

I took numerous photos trying to get the true results of the headlights but it was tough. The camera shot doesn't do the headlights justice.

I marked my garage door with tape exactly where the halogen beams hit and then compared the LED beam once I swapped them out and they hit in the exact spot.. I've had zero issues with anyone flashing there lights thinking I have my high beams on like the previous LED bulbs I installed on my '14 Silverado. With those I ended up adjusting those headlights down so as to not blind anyone. The new Sealight bulbs have great reviews so I decided to try them and I'm very happy so far.

No issues whatsoever.

There's no flickering or any other issues with these bulbs with the DRL. I'm very satisfied with them so far. I would highly recommend them. 

I didn't have to readjust the headlights after installing them like another brand I used on my '14 Silverado. With masking tape, I marked the beam pattern on the garage door for the stock bulbs before I removed them, then after installing the new bulbs the beam hit in the exact spot. There was no readjusting the headlights. I can't say enough good things about these bulbs so far. 

Very quiet running fan in each bulb. Two thumbs up. ????

Any issues thus far?  Radio interference?  Do they get hot with dust caps back on?

No issues whatsoever so far, No radio interference, I'm very impressed with them so far. ???? I was just camping in the Florida Keys last week along with the truck and there were no issues with overheating headlights but I didn't actually feel the dust cover to see if they were hot. I can imagine everything under the hood was very hot being 88 degrees and humid all week. ?

Hey LeadUtensil,

 

The color of these bulbs show as bright white. The stock bulbs are dull yellow and we're terrible trying to see at night.

Looks really good! My question is, the new bulb set you bought, are they plug and play? Just as if I were replacing an old bulb...

Yes they are. Unplug the stock bulbs and plug in these. Same connections

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      Based on what I can tell, yes.   As for updating it, its a mixed bag.  Updates do fix a lot of issues, but occasionally can create some oddities.  They do more good than harm though overall.     Here's what the most current one does and a  V171 Improvements Important: Improvements will vary by model, build configuration, system, and sales region. Not all vehicles have all features. OnStar and Wi-Fi may not work after remote start CarPlay may not automatically reconnect Part of the Driver Attention messaging screen may be in English even though the language is set to something else XM may not work After a dead 12V the radio may set to Arabic at each startup Bluetooth contacts might not be able to sync with the vehicle During an OTA the 12V battery may drain Customer might see a screen telling them to return to the dealer After changing the Wi-Fi SSID or password a device may not disconnect If a device is connected on the 2.4Ghz band, nothing will connect to the 5Ghz one, which could show as slow Wi-Fi speeds Customers might have noticed Wi-Fi dropping in certain areas and reconnecting later Customer might see the top of the screen blinking during Android Auto Android Auto may not connect CarPlay audio might momentarily cut out The "Add Phone" button may be grayed out The radio may not start up   V167 Most Notable Improvements:   Outside Air Temperature is incorrect. -You may see a popup message for Engine Shift.

Trailer Tire Pressure sensors may not be learned in the Trailer app. Not being able to return to the home screen while in the Camera app. After an ignition cycle, the radio might go to a black screen or stop working if using Sirius XM.

      Front End Rattle

      By AndrewF · Posted

      Looking for help troubleshooting a metallic like front end rattle. Figured I’d see if anyone had thoughts before I schedule an appointment with the dealer.   The rattle is fairly loud and occurs primarily when the front driver side wheel hits a bump, even fairly minor road seams. Sometimes does it when the passenger hits a bump but I don’t believe when the rear hits. Rattle still occurs when foot is pressing brake peddle so I think that rules out the caliper rattle I’ve read about. I’ve also checked the running boards and they are tight.   Most noticeable at slow speeds.    Any insight is appreciated.

      We try to make cruise the coast. It’s where our favorite casino is. I only want to spectate. Never took a car. Always had one to take. I belonged to a club once. Even when I used to drag raced. It was during test and tune. Probably because I’m not a night owl, party person.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Good looking Olds, and TRX!   I haven't been into car shows either. I'm probably not a convert but I did push myself this year to attend a few select events to challenge some assumptions and try to experience car-based social clubs in a different way. I joined up with the local Hagerty group for some cars/coffee events, group drives. A month ago I showed my '94 Camaro I rescued last fall at Radwood. Had a good time, but, there was some sitting around with the car and that's the part of shows I don't enjoy as much. I prefer to be a spectator, walk the show, grab a burger, go home.   Radwood was the only era-limited event, but where it had strict model year limitations, it made it up in variety. Having Jason Camissa there was also a hoot.   Where I see old 50's car shows, doo-wop and winga dinga music stuff fading out, same with "only" vintage muscle clubs, it seems to be the activity-based clubs/events which are gaining strong popularity. Places where all cars and interests come together.
