    Headlights not Bright

    Just don't do it. The halogen housings were never made to project light from an LED source, so any improvement in brightness would be worse because you'd have worse spread, aim, and will be blinding other drivers.

    Headlights not Bright

    I actually got my BFC retrofits on Tuesday. I'm getting them installed tomorrow with a very gracious member of these forums to help me out!

    Headlights not Bright

    Not trying to argue with you, but that's simply not true. I had the same exact experience that you do. I thought mine were brighter...because they were whiter. They are in fact not brighter. They are dimmer. You get less light output. You get more perceived output because the light is whiter...

    What Husky coverage for 3rd row seat? And best carpet mats?

    Thanks for the pics, this is EXACTLY what I need. The sliver is useless. I'll be getting the Husky as soon as I can myself!

    2011 Driver seat won't lift in the rear

    Define "cannot for the life of me turn the screw". Do you mean that you cannot turn it manually even if you tried? Something like this happened on my 2013 Impala a month after I bought it. I had to take it back to the dealer. They said that it was "stripped" or something, but whatever they did...

    Looking at 2009 Denali

    There's an unwritten rule around these parts that 80k is merely getting the engine on these broken in, so I'd say 96k is nothing. Just make sure it has a good history and that you can get the actual maintenance history/logs and you should be golden. Just FYI, I'm 1 month into ownership of my...

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    Yes I checked everything. It's not the license plate nor is it the rear light. I'm 99.8% sure it's the cargo railing. It's just been so cold out I haven't had time to get them tightened down completely.

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    My new 2012 Yukon Denali XL

    Update: interior shots as promised. There's a reason I did this at night: I wanted to show you just how bright those interior LEDs are. That's right ladies and gents: no camera flash here, so there is slight to no camera exaggeration here. It really is this bright inside the truck with the...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Just got back from installing the new tires: the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Let me tell you all right now that the stock OEM tires that come on the Yukon Denali XL (Bridgestone Alenza) are complete garbage. They ride rough, loud, and are hard as rocks. All I have to say is with the new tires...

    What light bulbs are being used in non hid tahoes

    I'm a longtime SilverStar Ultra user. Bottom line: they are a waste of money. Contrary to what a lot of people believe, they do NOT have more lumen output than the stock bulbs. I thought they were better because they were "whiter", but that came with a cost of less actual lumen output. The blue...

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    From my other thread. This afternoon, I went out with an intent to truly tackle the rattling once and for all. I did not attempt anything from the interior of the vehicle, but focused on the exterior. I focused on the rear left wheel well area first. 1. I removed the liner, and put some felt...

    Alright, wanted to provide an update on this. This afternoon, I went out with an intent to truly tackle this once and for all.

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    I have another theory. Could it possibly be the connector for the rear washer fluid? I hit the switch in the front; I hear the pump...but no washer fluid comes out of the rear. Then while doing some research, I came across this: http://z71tahoe-suburban.com/iboard/index.php?showtopic=30793&hl=...

    Dream Ride 2014 Escalade Premium

    Congrats man! I just went through this same dilemma, and ended up buying a 2012 Yukon Denali XL. The Escalade turns too many heads in the area where I live, enough for it to be a problem, and quite possibly a negative magnet, including the cops. I went with the Denali because it's actually...

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    You know, I'm actually scheduled on Jan. 3rd to get my tires road force balanced and get a full 4 wheel alignment. At the same time, I was going to get both differentials and the transfer case flushed, but am now heavily debating if I should just redirect the money and ditch the garbage Dueler...

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    I actually did. I stuck my hand into the recess and touched the metal sheeting (the side of the vehicle). The pitch didn't change at all. The odd thing is that I couldn't feel it either when it was hitting (making the sound). There was a harness cable I felt inside the recess as well. I tried...

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    The rattling is now getting worse. The doors are all rattling to hell. When I get time, I'm going to take them apart and Frost King them. How about the rear wheel well liners? Can I Frost King those as well?

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    Alright. While someone else was driving, I was able to go toward the back and find the source of this particular rattle. Here it is much closer to the source. It is not any of the jack equipment; I removed it and it still makes the noise. Closer to the source (wheel well). It sounds like...

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    Will do. Thanks man. I'll probably have my Mom drive it and then I'll try to find the cause. I've actually got this on my to do list for later this evening. Putting Velcro strips on them; there's a video and some how-to's that I found.

    2012 Yukon Denali rattling (with video)

    On my new 2012 Yukon Denali XL, it's developed an annoying rattling toward the rear. It's on the left side (driver side), but I don't know where. Oddly enough, it ONLY rattles when the vehicle reaches 60+MPH, most audible when between 75-80MPH. The strange thing is that it never rattled before I...

    Headlights not Bright

    You are having pretty much the same issue that we all have universally with our trucks: garbage headlight output. There is literally only one answer to this problem: A proper HID retrofit (either by yourself) or via Black Flame Custom. Do not try to shortchange it or go cheap; there is no way...
