This one too https://www.ebay.com/itm/234939100106 That's a d@mn big screen! I'll be looking into this one as well. I was also thinking about just keeping my stock 8 inch and adding the bypass adapter to watch DVD's on that screen.
04palass Posted June 30, 2023 Author Posted June 30, 2023 My goal is to finally get this rear sliding window wired up next week. I am no expert but there is not a ton of info online about this retro-fit. I have come up with this diagram. I also ordered a universal power window harness to start from. If all goes well I will go in depth so if anyone wants to do this in the future there will be a guide. Switch diagram that was provided (after I did some digging, the kit didn't come with printed instructions) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L162PC5/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Annd some pics I took last night for good measure lol 2

I found someone had marked something up on here (couldn’t find the thread I came from so apologies if it is biting off whoever did it) that was basically explaining from point a to b, I was searching for something else and thought of this thread here. I haven’t verified it completely as I am not there yet. But thought it might help. POWER SLIDING REAR WINDOW INFO.pdf 1

Had a great road trip, 790 miles got plenty dirty but hey that's what its for I did give it a quick coin wash after the trip there to get most of the bugs off 1
04palass Posted August 7, 2023 Author Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Success! Alot of work but I now have a fully functioning sliding rear window! I will do a write up shortly but I used a universal power window harness, spliced it all together and boom she works! I had trim my rear window molding to fit with the sliding rear window. I also did some other interior touch ups. When I got the truck it had the plane work truck interior with the matte black dash trim. I added trim from a LT Silverado but I did not know at the time that the Sierra and Silverado LT trim were different until I added the steering wheel. So I got some OEM Sierra SLT dash trim, but that came with an issue. It had the holes for the factory heated/cooled seats which my truck does not. So after some brain storming I decided to use the factory switches that came with the bezel to make it look as factory as possible while using my aftermarket switches. I found through trial and error this paint matches the factory console metallic gray/black very nicely I also wanted to do something with the door and console trim, I really like the carbon look on the All Terrain but they are out of stock through GM, so I smoothed my textured work truck trim and wrapped it in some vinyl which looks fantastic I will link it below. https://www.amazon.com/VViViD-Black-Carbon-Gloss-Realistic/dp/B00YLFSFWA/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=3I38QUGL81LQ5&keywords=gloss%2Bcarbon%2Bfiber%2Bvinyl%2Bwrap&qid=1691428419&sprefix=gloss%2Bca%2Caps%2C111&sr=8-3-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1 Edited August 7, 2023 by 04palass 2

The Silverado is a more glossy/metallic silver. The Sierra is a low gloss almost stainless steel look. Yes the Denali has more of a bronze/silver look and the SLT was all Silver. I had two 2018's. One was a fully loaded SLT. And now I have the Denali. The Bronze/Silver has grown on me. I just can't stand the wood grain door handle and console trim.
04palass Posted August 14, 2023 Author Posted August 14, 2023 In my never ending quest to dress up this truck I ordered some chrome speaker bezels. They look nice but fitment was terrible would not recommend them. But after some massaging they came out nice. Can't resist a photo op 1
04palass Posted September 18, 2023 Author Posted September 18, 2023 Scored some winter wheels! 18's from a 2020 Tahoe but same as any K2 Silverado. Also ordered brakes next will be tires for the wheels, unfortunately time to start thinking about winter
