Are these just plug n play?

I think they are but according to my dealer there's quite a but of labor involved. There's a couple long harnesses included with the actual sills. So, not plug & play for me. ? 

 

I tried to get installation instructions through the Chevy Accessories website but they told me they were only available to dealers.

Just to follow up with a picture. Had the dealer install mine for $75 when I picked up the truck. For me, they are worth it. Picked it up yesterday and then drove it on a 250 mile trip.

My lighted door sills  are on backorder. And well my truck is not here yet...I selected dealer install for a $75 fee via Chevy accessory website.

I would have no problem installing them myself but would have to wait for someone to confirm they will fit a 2019.

Probably my biggest concern would be what they look like after a Minnesota winter.

Wow - they can't even get the reference images right in the work instruction - every one of them are backwards & upside down. ?

If they fit a 2019, you could keep the old ones & change the illuminated ones out in the fall before snow with the old plates.  That being said, I'd be worried the little tabs that hold the plates into the plastic trim would eventually wear & snap off - the only other alternative would be to have 2 sets of plastic pieces so you don't have to remove the metal inserts.  Probably a bit more $$$ but might be worth it in the long run.

So has anyone confirmed that these will fit or not on a 2019?

I've had mine through 2 winters. Each fall I take a few minutes and put some 3m protective film over the illuminated panel. Pull it off in the spring. Still look like new.

I just received my LED Door Sills for my 2020 GMC 2500HD Denali 6.6 Duramax!   The Door Sills are plug and play and were just released by GM for the New Next  Gen GM Trucks(2019 1500 and 2020 2500).  The same connectors exist on these Door Sills(one plug / 2 connectors and one ground connector on the passenger side of the wiring harness)  than the earlier version GM Trucks.  The main difference in the LED Sills vs. the earlier GM Models is the LED Sill is an insert into the existing sill where the earlier version LED Sills were a complete replacement of the original / entire sill.  

 

I have not installed the sills yet, however it looks like maybe a 1 to 2 hour job as I will need to run the wiring harness behind the front dashboard / kick panel from the passenger side to the drivers side where the harness plugs into the BCM / Dome light circuit.

I'll post a pic when install is complete.

      Cam chain tensioner question

      By B14Sierra · Posted

      So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.

      No low range 4 x 4

      By dna9656 · Posted

      My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?

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

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
