    What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    I went with a ProClip angled phone mount and put a WizGear universal stick-on magnet on it. The magnet is so strong that if you get your phone within a couple of inches from it, it'll grab it mid air. It doesn't block the vent at all even with the Note 5.

    Most will have a clearance guide hanging down so you can be sure. And make sure your new tow mirrors are gonna clear too.

    Is this guy smoking something?

    Yeah, but you still have the Z71 front Valance and the color matched grill and bumpers.

    Is this guy smoking something?

    So if it is a Z71 package (from the factory), someone just decided to remove all the Z71 lower trim, the color matched bumpers, the roof rack, the (stock Z71) running boards and leave the pillar decals? And don't they normally come with leather? I'm pretty certain you could find another 00-06...

    Dude, you can take your module off and the the abs fuse out and still drive it no problem. I used this guy and it took him maybe 2-3 days to get it back to me and it works perfectly now.

    Yeah it's Android based and I love it. It's had no problems in the Texas heat and the startup is not bad at all, maybe 20-30 seconds tops. I hardly even notice it and the backup cam comes on even before it finishes booting anyway. I also installed Malaysk custom rom which makes it even better...

    Thanks! Thanks! I thought about color matching the fender flares, and I might one day, but I'm ok with the slight contrast right now. I used the Metra DP-3002B Double DIN Dash Kit and it came with everything. It works for 00-02 Tahoes. I just had to trim it a little because the head unit I...

    I think his name was George, but I'm not positive. It's the one off of 290 just east of I-35.

    Installed a new ProClip angled phone mount with a WizGear Universal Stick On Magnet. It's angled perfectly and doesn't look all ghetto. The magnet holds the phone on there tight AF. I also installed an in dash USB 3 dual adapter in place of the cigarette lighter hole. I have them both connected...

    My Rockford Fosgate R600X5 5 Channel Amp took a crap on me just outside the warranty date, but Amazon came thought and gave me like 75% of the original price for it. So instead of going back with a "trusted" brand, I took a chance and went with slightly an off brand set of amps. For the 2...

    Box for 2 12 inch subs

    Yeah I was just waiting for that. I'll get some sooner than it took to post these up ;)

    Removed the Black Billet grill and let the OE HD grill take over for a little while. I think it actually looks better. The billet one might look better if it were the kind that you have to cut out the old grill, but I wasn't going to do that just yet and seeing the grill behind it kinda sucks. I...

    Swapped out the old gauge cluster for a Blue Escalade set. Really happy to be able to keep tabs on this old transmission now, plus it churched it up a little.

    Blacked out the wheels, front and rear bumpers, Z71 valance, and grill with matte black plasti-dip. Also added Black HD vertical Billet Grille Inserts.

    Did the deed and lowered the front bumper mounts 1.5" to install the HD grill and bumper pad along with some new Anzo style LED Parking lights. Also installed a Bully BBS-1212CK Black Billet Aluminum Fuel Door with Lock.

    Got most of the trim put back on it and installed some OEM running boards.

    Got it back from Econo Paint and Body in Austin, Tx. Only ended up costing about $730 and for the money I think they did a pretty decent job. It's by no means show quality, but it'll do for a $1200 used Tahoe. I went with 2015 BMW Azurite Black, so in certain lights it looks like a midnight...

    Finally installed my HD hood, HD Power Side Towing Mirrors W/Smoked Lights, and got it ready to be sent off to the paint shop. I still need to level out the mirrors, I just haven't wanted to jack with it.

    Put on a new-to-me front bumper, bumper pad, a Z71 front valance w/ LED light cubes and Plasti-dipped the old crappy grill.

    Had to do the fun job of replacing the intake manifold gaskets and knock sensors. That wasn't too bad, but I ended up installing the manifold back on top of the new wiring harness, unbeknownst to me, so after a while it shorted out and the codes came back. I ended up replacing the wring harness...

    Next was some generic black nerf bars/side steps that I didn't like too much. I really wanted the oem Z71 steps, but had a hard time finding them and the trim to match. I also found a Z71 roof rack, installed some Spyder Smoked LED Taillights, Depo Black Projector Headlights, Black LED Parking...

    Now on to the suspension round. I ended up going with new Z71 Rear coil springs, Supreme Suspensions 2" Rear Billet Spacers, JK Sway Bar Extensions for the rear, the Cognito Heavy Duty Sway Bar End Link Kit for the front, Rear Bilstein 5100 Shocks (24-185783) & Front Bilstein 5100 Shocks...

    Next step was to replace the old ripped and nasty 15 year old driver's side seat cushion and bottom cover. I didn't take very many pics of the install, but it was one of the best things I did to the Tahoe. Around the same time I went ahead and replaced the gauge cluster bulbs with blue led...

    Austinite's 2000 NBS Tahoe Ex-Grocery Hauler Build

    First things first, I replaced the stock head unit with a Joying 7" RK3188 Android Head Unit. I used the Metra DP300-2B Double Din Dash instead of hacking up the dash. I had to trim it a little on the sides because the Joying is an ISO size headunit. Came out pretty good. I also replaced the...
