They look cheap as hell, imo. The top looks better, but still kind of tacky to me. OEM projector is very stylish, hopefully something can be incorporated - in time.

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

Threw a set of Hikari Lumileds in mine. Super bright with a good beam pattern that doesn’t seem to bother people. Carries down the road even better than the stock halogens.

I tried the h11 from lifetime led, the dust caps didn't fit on because the plugs on a 90 degree angle and runs into the lip for the cap.  So now I have morimoto 2 stroke 2.0 h11's. They are super bright and match the factory led fog lights almost perfectly. They are expensive tho, around 145.00. They need to be adjusted so they shine nice and aren't all over the place.

Here is website that for the trail boss custom headlights 
I hope these helps out

For the love of god, dont buy from those clowns. Lol. They do some real shady shit. Many other companies have been scammed by the owner of HID retrofit kit. Additionally the jerk goes around and leaves bad reviews on other builder pages even though they have never done business.

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.

Thanks for the suggestion. I ordered and installed mine over the weekend. The lights are much brighter and look a whole lot better than the stock halogens!

Rott, Thanks for the info . Installed mine this week and love them so far. Just drove from Indiana to Florida on Sunday with no problems. Question I had did you just stick the whole wire in the hole and put the cover back on. That’s what I did. To change the Hi beams you better have a friend with small arms. Mine looked like a shark got ahold of them just changing the low beams. Thanks again.

Jim,

 

Yes, I took the remainder of the wires and stuffed them Inside the hole next to the bulb and put the rubber boot back on.. 

I agree, when your done your arms/hands look like you landed a small shark and he gave one last fight. ?  GM definitely didn’t leave much room to change the bulbs.
I installed a pair of these bulbs in my wife’s Chevy Trax Redline and it took 2 mins. The headlights are right out in the open. 
It’s going on 9 months now with these headlights and they’re still working flawless. ??

Got my 2019 Trail Boss Custom a week ago as a Black Friday deal of the day. Sealight LEDs were my first upgrade and many more upgrades arriving this week. These Sealights are a huge upgrade for being plug and play @$135...

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I certainly could be wrong but I hear of pickups far newer than that 2007 cutoff which may not be going to the wrecker but are having engine work done and be that a reman engine or new engine or trying to repair the existing engine. Some of it would be design issues as per the cylinder deactivation system that GM has and one of those lifters wiping out the cam and the question of oil changes moving the needle or not on that whole mess, or in the case of Ford pickup engines that have the long timing chains and wearing them out and the roller followers and phasers and some of that certainly goes back to oil change intervals. But in those various cases the truck has all sorts of life left in it and so the unfortunate owner and may be original owner or used market owner that is pouring money into repairs so the truck is not seeing the salvage yard yet but damage is happening by infrequent oil changes. A friends son had bought a 2018 I think it is half ton GM and it had some sort of extended or used dealer warranty on it and of course the lifter issue bites and its rattling and so the dealer had to swallow the bill and was at least 7000.00 and I think they only replaced what they felt they had to replace so yeah, I can see that being a ticking time bomb in the not too distant future. Would frequent oil changes cure all these engineering "marvels", probably not but some engine designs have shown that they do much better if the oil is changed a lot more often then if the manufacturer service claims are followed. New trucks cost so much that there is an incentive to keep the existing truck on the road by repairing.

      Tranmission stays in Low

      get a good code reader, and find out what problems the truck has noticed by reading codes. cheap ones can only get basic engine codes, you may want to get one that can get codes from all the computers in your truck.

      This is sort of my point, salvage yards aren't overflowing with all these 'poorly' maintained trucks - excellent/good/servicable condition otherwise, salvaged only as a result of a bad engine from poor oil change regiment.    In my area, there are no 2007 to newer gm trucks/suvs in any salvage yards. A few are in the 'recyclers' with very obvious reasons for being there - wrecked.

      Stabilitrak conversion to Z71

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Stabilitrack was a stability control, traction control system, that functioned independently from the transfer case.   Z-71 has nothing to do with the transfer case or differential.   If it does have an AWD system, my memory recalls this being specific to the Denali trim, converting won't be as simple as swapping out mechanical parts like differentials and transfer cases. It will require reprogramming at a minimum. Long story short, not likely worth it.   Pulling a fuse, may disable the AWD system, it might also prevent any other transfer case functions.   However, the AWD case was generally based on the same transfer case you refer to in the 2006 Suburban. If it still has a 4-High and 4-Low where the transfer case locks and splits power 50-50 front to rear, what are you gaining by changing anything? A true-rear wheel drive only, what good will that serve? Not enough to go through the trouble of changing out all the parts.    Generally, all the factory systems will handle a 33" tire and re-gearing. Probably a 35" tire too, if you aren't driving like a caveman. If 35" tires are in the plan...   If you do plan on driving like a caveman or are fully committed to 35" tires, an entire re-think of the build is probably in order. Starting with square one, an IFS front end isn't going to be the best starting point for 35's and caveman driving.

      Oil Consumption

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      1/2 qt over full ain`t gonna hurt $h!t. Most times, a whole qt won`t either. Most have windage trays now. As long as the crank isn`t slapping itself in the oil, it`s not the end of the world.   We used to overfill 1 qt at the track, at race time. Better to have it over full than having the pan sucked dry at 6500 rpm`s.
