    Empty Spot in Overhead Console Bezel -- What's It For?

    Y'all, While wiring in a dashcam, I noticed this empty spot (bottom right in the pic) in the overhead console of my '13 Tahoe LTZ. As per the title, what's this spot for? It'd be good to know what switch(es) fit there in case I ever want to add some device and use this spot. Thanks, Scrappy

    Running A CVC BU60FHD Converter with Zeroed-Out Clutch Slip Target -- Any Advice/Experience?

    Y'all, I will be doing a number of reliability changes/upgrades soon, including disabling AFM and prophylactically replacing the torque converter & installing a Sonnax Zip Kit. I'm leaning towards a CVC BU60FHD converter, as recommended by many here. For those who are running this...

    Universal Remote System: Can It Be Re-Wired to Ignition or RAP for Its Power Source?

    Y'all, For security purposes, I don't keep garage door remotes in my vehicles outside and I'd like to have the Universal Remote System work in my Tahoe, but not at all times, just when the ignition is on or RAP is active. I haven't found a wiring diagram or pulled the overhead apart to look at...

    Windshield Washer Squirters -- Anyone Modified The Terrible Design?

    Y'all, One of the things that's irked me in the four months I've owned my '13 Tahoe is that the windshield washer squirters are positioned on the trailing side so that the entire upward stroke of the blades are dry, just what you don't want when trying to wipe the glass clean. What a terrible...

    What Is The Visible Light Transmission (VLT) Percentage for The AJ1 "GLASS,DEEP TINT" RPO Code?

    Y'all, My '13 LTZ has the AJ1 "GLASS,DEEP TINT" RPO code for the rear side & rear door windows, plus additional tint on all windows except for the windshield. The result is a pretty low VLT, which I don't care for. I'm considering removing the aftermarket tint from all of the windows and...

    Lame Question of The Week/Month/Year: OE Rear License Plate Screws & Alternates

    Y'all, I need to replace the license plate screws on my '13, as the existing ones have rust spots (quite annoying for a vehicle that's been in the Atlanta area all its life) and there are only two of them. The OE ones are absurdly priced everywhere (~$5+ each) and look like commodity...

    Minor Rant: Superseded Part Numbers

    Y'all, I'm going through my usual thorough post-purchase refurbishment of a "new" vehicle, and in particular am replacing the entirety of the hoses in the engine compartment. They're all original (date markings of April '13 and original factory paint marks across the hose/clamp/part), and...

    What Standard Is The USB Port in The Console? (i.e. 2.0, 3.0, ?)

    Y'all, I will be installing a splitter at the junction in the center console to power a low-consumption (16 mA) device that does not have any data connection, but I want to ensure I don't degrade the data capability from the stock port in the console. So, what USB standard will the splitter...

    Doing A Complete Replacement of All Hoses & Connectors: What Size & Length for Bleed Line?

    Y'all, It looks as if each one of the hoses & connectors are original, given that all of them have one or both of these paint marks (and all the clamps are marked & lined up as well). I've got everything ready to order except for the 3/8"-ish hose that comes off the bleed fitting at the front...

    Yakima HD Track Installation -- Any Experiences/Input?

    Y'all, I've got a number of Yakima rack components I've used on different vehicles (Locking RailRider 1 towers on an AMC Eagle; 1A Raingutter towers on a '57 Chevy and an '86 BMW; crossbars, bike racks, load stops, etc.) and would like to install a pair of HD 72" tracks on my '13 Tahoe LTZ...

    Cargo/Loading Ramps: Any DIY Designs or Suggested Brands/Models?

    Y'all, I've done my due diligence, but haven't run across any cargo/loading ramp discussions on TYF, other than this one on a dog ramp. To be clear, I am not asking about maintenance ramps one would drive the truck onto, I'm asking about ramps to do things like getting yard equipment or whatnot...

    Just Picked Up This 2013 Tahoe LTZ

    Hi Y'all, I was mainly on the lookout for PPVs, but when this came up for only a bit more than the PPVs I was running across, I checked it out and snapped it up. 183K, $9,750, from an Alfa Romeo dealer. The AFM is working fine, but will be turned off via tuning ASAP. Everything else is...

    Long-Time Gearhead, Short-Time TahoeYukon Lurker. On The Hunt.

    Y'all, Due to some upcoming needs and the desire to have a daily driver with an automatic again, I'm on the hunt for an older Tahoe, most likely a GMT900. I generally prefer less-content-laden vehicles and only need 2WD, so I had mostly been looking at PPVs. However, since I will be doing...
