You have been busy since the last time I checked in!! Hell of a job getting the seats together and wired Andy. What were they out of originally? Did they bolt right in?

Thanks,
99 Tahoe. I picked them up for $60.00 at the local LKQ yard in Greenville SC. I got both sides six ways working and the passenger side heater but never could get the drivers side heater to work so I just bought the aftermarket stuff and installed them. The drivers side was a bolt in the passenger side I had to drill 2 holes. I have a new center console to install and have new red carpet also. I will weld up the old seat holes then. I have to move the shifter also so the console will sit right.

Lightbulb Console

I worked on my center console yesterday. I plan to hide the 2 amps inside it so I cut the backside for a small 12 volt fan to pull the hot air out of it. Going to have it two toned grey bottom with silver top. Planning to cutout some vents in the sides also to help with cooling.

Cool Seats & console

Well the interior is all done I think! I got everything back in and working. The only thing I don't like is my shifter cover. I didn't get it just right so at some point I will redo it again. Once it warms up some. The console turned out way better than I had expected it too! I can't say enough about it, pictures just don't do it justice at all.

Default Front end

Got both front helper air bags installed on the truck. Finally no more tire scrub for now. Hope to have a complete Accuair system installed by end of the summer.

Default Minor prblem

A couple weeks ago I noticed my high beams wouldn't work. I figured the dimmer switch was going bad. My low beams worked fine though. I got to doing some trouble shooting and found the high beam relay constant hot wire had melted into the ground wire. I also had jumped the fog lights off of it to so I swapped that lead off of the low beam relay. Now everything is working great again.

I bought some new lights while at the Myrtle beach show also a couple of weeks ago.
I also added the front coils helper air bags I bought about a year ago finally. Man what a differance they made in the ride.
