The city can't say **** to me I'm in unincorporated lake county! Plus the Sausage castle is right down the street and that dude is totally nuts, he set up half the rides you find at a carnival in his yard, along with building a pirate ship in his pond and shooting some kind of massive cannon that sounds like thunder.

Its ok this isn't performanceVettes.net so no more C5 talk over here.

I would have guessed $10-$15 MAX with my corporate rate

Whoa, the corporate rate must be dang good! I don't ship enough to get a corporate account I don't think.

Oh it's not "my" corporate rate, just the company I work for. Combined between the family of companies it is $1 mil + for just ground shipments

Holy cow $1mil to get a decent price! Well somehow MikeD gets better rates than me because return shipping is $32 in the same box, maybe LEDs weigh that much less.

Stuff should be here Friday and he charged me a total of $200 which included the return ride. He also said because the headlight switch/dimmer was aftermarket the way they make them yields less output but it looks 100% better than it did.

Damn that was a quick turnaround! I figured it would take much longer.

He had them done and ready to ship the next day which was a Saturday. I don't know how to use my new phone still and didn't get his message about payment until last night when I was about to ask for an update and found he had messaged me multiple times thinking I was a flake and not gonna pay lmao.

The only downside I see to having the AC panel lit up properly is that now I can't quickly turn it to hot on the passenger side without my GF noticing until she starts to melt.

That's the truest thing anybody has said about me. Actually, it's the Instagram messenger app which I hate so I disabled all alerts from Insta and now I don't get message alerts.

Instagram messenger app? That's just Instagram.

Does your Tahoe have the rear AC controls? If it does do they light up? I'm trying to remember my dad's 02 Suburban but I can't remember if any of the other controls lit up or not
