Hello all and thank you in advance!

 

so I thought having the safety console would be nice but really I doNt have a big enough purpose that it makes sense - and the mat GM gave just lays over it and doesn't give much to organize or anything. 
 

so my question is - how hard is the removal of the safe?  And if I remove it what options are out there for console organization type things?

 

thank you!

I used this one to sit above my locker down safe:

It's mainly for a 2018 Silverado, but fits on the skinny lip right on the edge, perfectly.  I needed something with as much height as possible, as I have the electronic lock, which adds a little height to the lock.

I would actually consider keeping and using the safe.  I like having some cash, my registration/insurance card and other items in a bit more secure location.  At least if I get my truck washed or serviced, those things don't get accessed.

 

I have one in my truck and love it.  I also have the organizer that sits above the safe, and it keeps the things I need at hand.

So to be Clear-you have the GM safe a the bottom of the console and the organizer (From Amazon-which I already have ) fits on top of the safe and you can close the console?

I have been told the the Lock'R Down version of this safe will not permit the use of the organizer , but it looks like the GM safe wiull fit beneath the organizer which would be Super good!

See my previous post above.  I have the locker down safe with the electronic lock, which sits even higher than the roller tumbler lock, and I used a organizer for a 2018 Silverado and it sits perfect on the little bit of a seam on the console edge.  Snaps right into place, and does not touch the lock at all.

Yes, the GM safe will work with several of the organizers available on Amazon

I like the idea of the console safe but I really wish it was shallower & didn’t take up so much cubic space. IMO, 3” deep would be perfect. Enough for a pistol and/or valuables to lay flat & there’s still plenty of storage left above.

Agree. Too much safe space, not enough unsecured space.

I got the front 40/20/40 front bench and really like the lockable storage under the middle seat but it’s far from a “safe”. Haven’t been able to find one for the new ‘19-‘20 body style - if any of y’all came across one when looking for your console safe, please pass that info on!

Hello all,  purchased a 19 Sierra yesterday and it has this console safe (GM part 84081567) according to the stickers inside the safe. Safe is open but the dial is in the locked position... Dealer didn’t have the code so it’s basically useless.  The reset can’t be used if it’s in the locked Position for obvious reasons. Any ideas?

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case."

      Transmission jumping out of gear while driving.

      By JimCost2014 · Posted

      Probably a one and done post, but do you have a CEL on the dash? Was having issues with my transmission, fortunately only a week, and it turned out to be the transmission harness. Valve body was in good shape, so new harness with all the sensors attached, new fluid, and filter. Seems to have worked so far?

      Missing thrust bearing? And oil selection

      By Atlas · Posted

      Two interesting tidbits of information which are NOT related were just released.   One, regarding the possible thrust bearing issues / engine failures with the 3.0. Demonworks just did a segment in which they believe they may have found "a" or "the" cause of thrust bearing failures: A missing thrust bearing. If the engine doesn't have all its thrust bearings from the factory, the missing bearing can cause extra play which ends up destroying a nearby thrust bearing which then sends metal through the engine.       Of other importance, Lake Speed Jr released some interest information regarding oil weight selection for the 3.0. Comparisons of:   AcDelco 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w20 Dexos D Mobil 1 ESP x2 0w30 Mobil 1 ESP x4 0w40. Mobil Delvac 5w40   Spoiler alert: The Mobils are PAO Ester -base and the ACDelco is a Group III base. Mobil shows lower wear in their tests for similar weights. Additive packages between 20-30-40 weight ESP's appear to be the same, but only 0w20 is Dexos D licensed. Wear is even more reduced with 30 and 40 weight ESP although all perform very well and resist shear and provide very similar viscosities within temperature operating ranges in the 3.0.   There are even more surprises, so just go watch it.

      Weird click noise when revving my truck?

      By JimmyB4 · Posted

      Hello Guys I'm new to the form,         I just put a 7-inch Rough Country lift on my 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.3 and I also put a Borla exhaust on it. But I noticed when I'm in park or in neutral and then I rev my truck up really quick there is a bad click noise and I think it's coming from the motor somewhere. Anyways I got a video of it I will attach below I was just wondering if you guys think its rod knock or lifter tick or something like that because I know the AFM kind of made the lifters weak on these trucks.       Thanks!!!!!

      We’ll have to agree to disagree. I didn’t experience or know anyone who had a decent car after 100K miles in the 60s through the 80s that were daily commuter vehicles. Unless they were collector vehicles. Of course things cost more due to inflation. But we also make more money. The biggest money drains these days are things people think they need today versus what we require back in the day. Like cell phones and internet as examples. Another example is where you live. Cost of living varies from state to state. I would need twice the money to live in NJ vs Texas in retirement. The car you recently purchased was less than my first car with inflation at 3000$ in 1973. I didn’t have air, electric windows, cruise etc. Purchasing power is equivalent, you just have to do the research.
