I've had the OXILAM 7440 in the front now for over a month and working with no issues. I'll keep updates coming....

I have OXILAM 7440 led bulbs in my front turn signals, work perfect. $22 on Amazon. Can't help you on the tails.

I just bought a combination of OXILAM (7440 - turn signals & 921 - reverse lights) and AUXITO (194/2825 - license plate lights) on Amazon.  I will try to remember to come back to this post and update thoughts once they arrive and are installed.

I've been running the OXILAM (bought on Amazon) since May 2019. Zero problems with them. They are excellent. 

 

I see these guys out there with OEM bulbs in their Silverados and just ?. One of the most paltry signal lights I've seen. The LEDs make a massive difference.

I see you have a 2020 Elevation as well. Did you replace the brake/turn signals and the reverse lights in the rear? I'm looking to swap out the actual whole tail light with the AT4/Denali but I can't seem to find answers if it's a direct swap... otherwise I'll get bulbs. Thanks!

I have done the reverse lights but have not touched the brake/turn bulbs.... Long term I also want to replace the entire housing to full LED's and my understanding is that as long as you have the harness it should be a plug and play but like you, I have not been able to confirm it.
I also reached out to RECON about a timeframe of when they may be releasing an aftermarket option but there isn't anything available from them yet.

Thanks for the info. Do you mean, purchase the harness that would come with the LED tail lights normally or use the existing one with what we have? Thanks much for the quick reply.

I would be inclined to say that we would have to use the harnesses that come with the full LED lights... Or like you said, purchase them. Our existing harnesses would not work. In theory I'd love to get a hold of the OEM LED tail lights with their harnesses.

So I ended up ordering the upgraded tails from a reputable seller online. They're the OEM genuine tails for the AT4 / Denali model. I ordered the halogen to LED transition harness from www.gen5diy.com and ran the wiring the exact same way it was on the original tails and plugged everything in and it works perfectly. The only "complaint" or bug that I see is having to screw in and mount the resistor somewhere tucked up in the back of the truck.

That sounds awesome.. Good to know that it is almost plug and play [emoji28]
Did the resistor come with the harness you bought?
Do you mind sharing the online retailer where you bought the lights from?
Man I really want to do but I just tied up a bit of play money on a couple of stocks.

No problem! It's as close to plug and play as it gets. I bought the tails here - https://www.ebay.com/str/emanuelautoparts they came in perfect shape wrapped in the original wrap and packaging. I got the harness here - https://www.gen5diy.com/collections/19-20-sierra-products/products/2019-led-taillight-harness-1500-models ... disconnected the OG tail light under the truck on each side, unscrewed and removed them and the harnesses. Ran the new harness down and followed the same path as the OG tail lights, but didn't plug them in.. took the gen5diy harness and plugged one side into the end of the tail light harness, the other end into the truck. The resistor is part of the harness and in-line in between the tails and the truck. Just have to mount it up behind in the back of the truck into something metal to dissipate the heat.

I'm buying a set of led taillights but don't come with the OE harness.... Do you know the part# or where I can purchase?

For future resource, the OE harness part number for the AT4 LED tail light(s) is #84234372. I have a pair of these harnesses on the way which I will attach to the AT4 LED tail lights. You will still need the GEN5DYI harness with the built-in resistors.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By whenindoubtuseahammer · Posted

      Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Looks nice. I still have my 2000, 1500. Bought a 2025, 1500 for retirement. Feels solid. These trucks have a bad rap on the internet. My brother has a `24 1500, 5.3 with 52,000 miles. No problems at all. Mine hasn`t either but mine`s only at 12,700 miles. Have seen some of these things with 100,000 miles with no problems.

      Howdy! New to the forum of course! My name is Casey, just picked up a 2024 high country midnight edition. First “new” truck in 24 years for me. Driving a 1998 Z71 since 2002. Have been on the GMT400 forum with lots of good info and help there. Nervous about driving these newer trucks and all their electronics…. Did a lot of work on the Z71 myself over the years. New truck is definitely a nice upgrade after 24 years. Photo of the old and new, still keeping the Z71 - has 320,000 miles on her and still running well!
