So both of the remotes for my '15 Silverado are showing their age. What is a reliable source for getting replacements?  Googling comes up with all kinds of results.  What are reliable online sources for ordering?  Any you've ordered and they turned out to be poor quality or non-functioning?

Actually you don't have to replace the remote. You can just change the shell. Open the old one and swap the internal card and battery (might as well replace the battery for a new one while at it) to the new shell. That way there is no reprogramming required.

Ebay. I buy all of my new cases from ebay.

 

For $20 or $30 I get another 5+ years or so from the new cases.

I prefer the boostauto fob. My first one lasted four years before I noticed just a bit of wear on the buttons, probably not enough to replace it, but, heck, I really like to have items as perfect as I can get them:

      Clean During the Day. Serious Light at Night. Sierra HD 40" PRO Kit

      By mandrautomotive · Posted

      Hey everyone, If you've been looking for a way to add serious lighting to your 2024–2026 GMC Sierra 2500HD or 3500HD without sacrificing the truck's clean factory look, I wanted to share one of our favorite setups. Our 40" PRO Light Bar Kit is designed specifically for the refreshed Sierra HD and mounts behind the grille for a built-in, OEM-style appearance. The kit is completely bolt-on, uses factory mounting points, and doesn't require any cutting or drilling. It's also designed not to interfere with the active grille shutters or radiator airflow. A few highlights:   Fits 2024–2026 GMC Sierra 2500HD & 3500HD Compatible with PRO, SLE, SLT, AT4, Denali, and Ultimate trims Curved 40" PRO LED light bar with advanced TIR optics Available in White + Amber DRL or Yellow + Amber DRL Complete bolt-on installation Lifetime warranty   We also put together a light output video so you can see how the PRO light bar performs in real-world nighttime conditions. It does a great job showing the beam pattern, width, and distance before you decide if it's the right setup for your truck.   Is anyone else running hidden grille lighting on their Sierra HD? We'd love to see your setup! If you have any questions about fitment, installation, or choosing between the white and yellow beam options, feel free to ask. We're always happy to help. __________________________ www.MandRonline.com https://www.instagram.com/mandrautomotive/ M&R LED Light kits - www.MandRonline.com | Burbank CA https://www.youtube.com/@MandRautomotive

      It is, It is the purpose. Just ask that everyone plays nice     On another note. The Terrain and the Equinox are fraternal twins. The one we have is spitting distance from 300K and yes, it has been problematic. Oil consumption is inexcusable. That said, nearly everything else fell into the "Routine Maintenance" bucket or expected failure due to age or accident. The 2015 Generation are very comfortable and they drive dreamy. The six speed is a rockstar save for the cheap failure prone manual automatic physical switch in the shifter. I called it quits after three.   The Ecotec 2.4 I-4 sans the GDI pump junk is nearly bulletproof. The hardest thing we experienced with this SUV was rear wheel alignment. The back axle is a starter kit. Toe bolts need to be installed as do extended range camber bolts. Then you have to find someone not new to the planet that has the skill and patients for the horrendous task of dialing it in. But once set, it is rock solid.    The new ones....yea, I'll pass. I have one CVT and it is enough. They could be a good transmission but someone would have to really care designing it.  Subaru seems to have it down fairly well.

      When most people look at GM's EV strategy, they think it was dumb. Obviously, duh?   In hindsight, there was significant financial risk in becoming obsolete if GM didn't go all-in, like a lot of automakers. Had the EV market taken off, GM would have been left defenseless.   Not all of their $10.9B was lost. Only a part of that was sunk costs like supplier penalties and retooling for EV's they canceled or never made.   A sizable chunk of that was R&D and intellectual property which is still in their back pocket for future EVs.   GM hedged the risk but overspent, but then they pivoted and focused on their bread and butter. Not only did GM still have the financial prowess to do that, they've done so successfully. It shows a lot of resilience and the market rewarded it.
