Kmeloney, you have problems hooking up the resistors? If you are near me, I would be more than glad to help, as Im sure other members would be if your in there area...

But yeah, they look just like the G3 and G4 lights.

Dan -- I know NOTHING about electrical crap (except to know that I shouldn't mess with it, 'cause I'll probably screw up it or myself in the process). So, maybe I could take you up on that offer sometime. We could meet on the NE Extension somewhere, if that'd be cool with you. I know it's a 20-second operation, but I just haven't been willing to mess with it just yet.

I have the 6-ohm resistors sitting in my garage, ready to go...

Thanks for the offer!

I run these Tailights, they was plug n play. no resistor needed as its built in.

The reverse light section doesnt have that red divider, which IMO makes my reverse lights brighter.

I run 60-60 led SMT Stealth Ultimate Switchback Bulbs as both my turn and reverse lights in the clear section.

With the top two red sections wired to work at same time for brake.

They Look AWSOME! and are Very Bright!

@KMel- you're messing with your cars suspension and have a thorough knowledge of cars in general... I have faith in you that you can cut out the original (black box) resistor and splice the 6 ohm gold ones in place!!! haha j/k j/k

Your LTZ came with that bumper??? I was under the impression that the LTZ Tahoe's didn't start coming with that bumper until 2010...

UNLESS you have HID reverse light's spliced in like I do :Handshake:

thanks felixguns for the pics...

i notice that its 3 columns light up all at once, not like the esky that only the outer column lights up (without brakelights)...

anyone know the closest match to the esky?

plus i see everyone who has Tahoes changing their tails.. not many yukons!

no prob man anytime. this G4/G3 LED tail -is- the closest match to the esky tail light without doing the actual esky tail light swap.

really? I see yukons on here all the time swap the tails...

Felix -- I know, I know. It's sad, but I just resist (no pun intended -- well, maybe a little) working with electricity. It's just something that I'm more than willing to leave to people who already know much more about it than I do.

Oh, and no, Chevy started using that bumper/chrome strip on the '09 models. At least that's my understanding, 'cause my truck came with it. Either I got lucky, or they all came that way. I'm going with the latter.

kal -- Felix is right. These ARE the closest match to Esky lights. No on makes lights that light up exactly as the Esky ones. These are the next best thing.
