Help me out here….I have 23 Silverado custom and I’m looking for the stock oem fog lights to add on. Obviously they make them, I’ve seen them on higher end trims. My local dealer says they can’t find them and I have tons of GM points I’d like to use lol So is it my dealer or what?

yes you can buy oem set with new dash switch that has the foglight switch.  You also have to have ecm flashed for them to work.  Or you can go to Amazon or other site and purchase a set of aftermarket units and hard wire in easily.

No can do.  The accessory kit is 1/2 ton only.  

 

You can get lights, but you will need to put them on your own control switch.  You won't be able to use the factory one.

The dealership won’t even offer the oem lights that come on higher end trims?! I’ll install them to one of the 5 aux switches I don’t care…but I rather have stock ones over aftermarket

Well, there is no "kit" offered for the HD.  Its possible that if the 1/2 ton kit has the same lamps as the HD trucks that the kit can be adapted to work on a HD, and then sure you could tie the power to one of the AUX circuits.

 

Or...you can get some aftermarket fogs that are right for your truck which might come with some sort of simple harness and do it that way too.

I'm in the same situation. I can find the fog lights but it says it will not fit 2024, 2500HD

I plan on checking wiring harness first. I am suspicious and wonder why they would make different harnesses for HD compared to LT, LTZ. 

The cutout are there. The shape appears to be the same. I will find out.

From what I can figure out the HD fog lights are mounted in the steel portion of the bumper whereas the 1500s have the fog lights in the plastic filler piece in the middle of the bumper.

 

Two different styles altogether.

    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.     
    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.  
    • Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.
    • I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
