Dash panel removal

Anyone know how to get this panel removed? I removed the fuse panel and the left side of the console. I know that there is a screw on the left side of the panel that I removed but was afraid to pull on the panel. The upper right side appears to be behind another panel. I'm looking for a spot to mount a 12v socket.

 

The the harness on the drivers side looks like a good spot to run a cable through but I'm unable to see where it is on the interior side. Maybe I need a 1 million candlepower light to see it. Maybe it is more visible with the panel removed.

I am guessing you re installing the kit for the AUX switches?  Once that screw is removed that panel will pull off form from the videos I have seen.

No kit available for my truck yet. I'm trying to get the panel off to look for a place to mount a 12v lighter socket. I want to connect the wiring to the Aux battery so that it's on all of the time and more current capacity than the drivers side fuse panel.

I saw your post, my truck has the full console.

 

@Kerry Pulaski added some 12v sockets in his console. He didn't show his dash but I think it's similar to mine. Maybe he'll respond.

I've seen various posts on taking dash panels off but not one like mine. Factory pic.

On the 20-23s the radio bezel had to come out. If it's worth $22 or so to you go to AC Delco TDS and buy the 3 day subscription to the factory service manual. PDF print everything you ever think you'll be doing, torque specs and all while you're in there. PITA but worth it.

Thank you very much, it's exactly what I needed. Will give me something to do after the next round of winter and we get back from back from some place warm after the first week of April. I'll order the the lighter socket then and hopefully only have to take it apart once.

Stopped at the dealer parts department this afternoon and ordered a 12v receptacle and cover plate. Should be there by Tuesday or so depending on storm delays. Plenty of time to pick it up before we leave for vacation. Hoping there is a suitable place for it when I get the panels apart. If not, I might have to use a different mount like Kerry Pulaski did in the console. Will update when I get to that point. 

 

Thanks to everyone here who post there mods, etc and helps others.

Kerry here. I cannot post any more pix, as I seem out of file size to post any more. I put my dual cigar outlet inside the center arm rest. And another out side the rear center console facing rear seat by the floor. Ran power to the passenger side fuse panel to a 15 amp fuse tap, that always powered.

See my replies also further on. I  put outlets inside my center arm rest, ran power to passenger side fuse block, with a 15 amp fuse tap.

Also The GM Upfitter Kit said not available for Denali and AT-4 until '25. I'd look at the aftermarket Aux-Panel.

Don's Life GM You Tubes did a nice video on it. Easier to install than the OEM kit by far.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      New tires are on, Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT's in 235/75/15. $100 per tire, after $10 AAA discount. Plus install ($100), disposal fees, and taxes.   The new tires ride nice. Catch 22, new tires, I love it again! But I feel like I've been through the wringer with this rig, and maybe I don't need this kind of headache right now. Wait until tomorrow, I'll probably love it again and keep it another week.   Never a dull moment: Got a CEL driving to the tire shop, P0172 bank 1 too rich. Oh lordy, really? I've been enjoying an emoji-free dash for too long, apparently. I popped the hood at the shop and I think there was a vacuum leak very close to the intake. Cleared the code and put a bunch of miles on it going home, code never returned. My fix was zip-tying the line on the vacuum reserve ball because the hose won't stay seated. It's either that or the fuel pressure regulator has an issue again or an injector is leaking. See why I'm getting tired of this one?!   In the gas price thread I recorded 19mpg on the last tank in fairly mixed driving and some higher-speed highway (70). I also don't have the lower engine shield installed right now, and that would help with diverting a lot of wind underneath the truck.   Not too long ago, a green '96 4-door 4x4 came up for sale with less than 1,000 actual miles. There was a story there but it was real, and the place wanted like $25k for it. Would be fun to have a NICE example of one of these, but not too nice. The joy is driving them.   That's it for a while...family and social stuff all weekend, no time to play with my Hot Wheels in the garage for the next couple of days.

      $5.19 after Kroger discount for 87 today. Moses!   Somehow I've already put 560 miles on the Blazer with the last tank clocking 19mpg.

      Oil dipstick

      By Stu Katz · Posted

      I have a 91 GMC SIERRA 1500 4.3 liter. My dipstick broke. Can someone tell me how long is the oil dipstick. Local Part stores do not stock the oil dipstick. If someone can tell me the length. I can match up an aftermarket one. Thank you.
