The other day I noticed I had a tail light out, or so I thought, went ahead and ordered some Diode Dynamics HP11s. They are pretty nice, price is not that great. I need to compare with my superbrightLEDs I have on my Silverado. Previous owner put an orange bulb in the passenger side.

Before:


After:




I have also found a slow leak in one of my wheels. I have had to air up one of my tires a couple of times and so I finally decided to take it in. Wheel has corroded enough on the inside to cause a slow slow leak, nothing they could do but send me on my way. No worries, PYOs are $85-$100 each at the junkyard and they probably look better than mine anyway lol
Either that or I will pick up my MT Classic 3s.

kids these days...

Well the Board is NLA but the last time I checked the lens was still available.
Also the OEM gasket will crumble when you take it off but there is aftermarket one you can get on ebay to re-seal it. Don't want that cab leaking...

I’ll keep the same lens and just get the new bulbs and a gasket.

Look ma another boring update!Replaced both tail light harnesses on Tuesday. I purchased the Diode Dynamics bulbs a couple of months ago now and they would constantly fall out of the socket. They never seemed to really click in right. So I went ahead and purchased two brand new harnesses and the bulb finally makes a nice click when you insert it. The true test will be driving out to the lake however as that is a gravel road into dirt path. I wish the whole thing was just a dirt path though
  • GM Genuine Driver Side Tail Lamp Harness P/N: 16532721
  • GM Genuine Passenger Side Tail Lamp Harness P/N: 16532722

I also had purchased two used PYO wheels as I have one that would leak if installed on the front. I had the tires rotated a few thousand miles ago and it has yet to lose air in the back so I haven't gotten them installed yet. They look better than my current ones and I slightly regret not getting the whole set at $75 each.
