Looks good!  What film did you use?  Did you remove the lens?  Going to do this mod on my white GMC 2500

Did not remove the light just used a small plastic scraper and electronics heat gun. Be careful with the heat, the tint will blister if you get carried away.

Haven't touched mine as of yet, hasn't really bothered me much.  I do like it at night because going down the road or backing up it gives you a great indicator of where your truck is.

Did mine as well when I swapped on the painted flares.  Looks so much better.

Very nice! Also: Where did you get painted flares?  We just got our Pacific Blue 2500HD AT4. I like this tint mod.

Thank you!

 

I ordered them through a local Chevrolet dealer.  They're a GMC part that you can find on accessories.gmc.com.

 

But...they currently don't offer every color, and I can't recall if the Pacific Blue is available or not.  They do offer a primer version, but then you'd have to get them painted.  Not that doing so would be hard, but it would be an added expense.

 

I have to assume that each color will be offered, at least the colors that are also available in the Denali trim.  But that's just my guess.

Tinted mine last week when I installed the 295/65-20's.

Vivid tint, easy application, just follow directions.

Off topic here but are you lifted with the 295/65/20’s? And if not.... do you have any rubbing?

What I have found about the roof marker lights, is that they aren't normally on the trucks with California emissions. I don't quite get the relation, but a quick search of trucks on lots on Cali vs other states pretty much proves it. Can a buyer order a GMC with the California emissions, but it's actually going to a dealer in another state?

Not sure if these are painted or if they sell a piece you can put in place of the light if you don't like it.67cff7d3311983bb73754107ea53d2f7.jpg

How has the tint held up for you all?  Just finding this and thinking about it, and curious on the long term since most of you have had it done for a year or so now.

    • Thanks for all the help so far!   I did try right from 2026 right down to 2021, and only from 2023 down lets me select the option for tire psi change, but I get the vehicle not supported error!   I'll definitely try it under Chevrolet after work today, and I'll get the sensor number from gm for my truck tire sensors. And I'll let you know if it works for me under Chevrolet!   And if that doesn't work, I'm going to guess that what @Atlas said about maybe I have a different body control module could be true!  
    • From where I'm sitting this sounds like a compatibility problem. I'm assuming the 2007 was a 900-series truck, and not an 800-series (they were sold side-by-side in dealerships that model year), since it starts and runs.   This is why I HATE post-2006 vehicles. Everything becomes a huge problem when you try to keep the thing running for longer than the manufacturer has designed it to.    I can't remember when Global-A architecture started - either '10 or '11. For your sake, you had better hope it's '11, or you're going to be spending some BIG money to correct this cluster-eff. That's something you need to find out before doing anything else. You may have several computers bricked ... but the fact that it runs tells me you MIGHT be ok here.     EDIT: Just did a quick refresher. You're screwed. This is Global-A. The 2 systems are NOT compatible in the slightest. Once you get the correct engine in there that IS compatible, you're going to need to see how many computers are locked. Absolute NIGHTMARE to straighten out, too. Your buddy might be better off cutting his losses and finding something else.   Welcome to post-2006 vehicle electronics. This is why I quit the industry, and drive nothing built after 1994. This stuff takes all the fun out of wrenching!

    • True, hard to say what differences there may or may not be between Chev and GM as well as a production year or mid year part change either.    I just found it odd that under the Sierra choice on the Autel that many of the last few years of production year did not include the choice of changing the tire pressure but if that is an Autel thing or a GM thing as to why the choices were not there. Knowing what tpms sensors are on the truck should give some guidance into which choices on the tool even make sense to try as I wouldn't give up just yet with the tool but I guess he will see what if anything he comes up with if he finds out a bit more info and tries a few more things on the Autel. 
    • I'm sure if you went to a junkyard where you go in and pull the part off the truck yourself, not a used part place where they do it for you, you can get that part on it's own.  Depending on if and what else you would be buying, and time of day, they might even just skip over adding it as a item to the bill.
