Fog Lights?

[Lelo1968]

I may need to add fog lights to my RST, that install looks nice!!


Here is my RST, just broke 5k miles in 5 months. Also put a 1k amp in on a custom 34hz box. waiting for FI Audio Xv3 12” to arrive (8-10 week wait).

Why would Chevy fail like this? So stupid. I'd be pissed to spend that kind of money and have to add aftermarket lights and switches just to have fog lights like nearly every other vehicle on the road. Another reason I love our yukon, it has bad ass fog lights that put out a ton of light

I had to add fog lights. GM messed up not making it an option

Great job! Could you please show a pic from the drivers seat at night with the lights on and off for comparison? How is the spread? Thank you

Looks like someone has validate the proof of concept at leas and showed it can be done, just a matter of finding locatio. Between the location, wiring and switch location the hardest part would be finding location. Since I don’t plan to use the off-road portion of my 22 Z71 the tow hook fairing could be closed over with a bracket or containment box. I would want to have a bracket and housing assembly that could be removed if necessary in the event that vehicle does get off road….read snow, ice etc…and may need to be towed. Not removing the tow hooks just covering them over and the lens assembly would fit into the tow hook housing. Something that cen be used as a fairing to keep somewhat neat looking and professionally installed. Wiring would be custom ad the only question that remains is can te Yukon Fog Light switch be connected to the wiring harness. That provides the neat looking instrument panel look without a extra switch And a neat instrument panel. The other option would be the fog light switch on the center console or possibly off to the side within fingertip reach. Thinking out loud but the wiring harness even if aftermarket harness would probably be the least of the figment issue. Fuse tap adapters, relay bock and power supply to switch and battery seem simple. Trick is to get it looking not only neat but out of the way without making the isnetrument panel look too busy.

Work take home 22 Tahoe, they added fogs at the bottom in those two blank spaces on either side of the plate mount.

These look cool but do they function as a fog light. If these are meant to be mounted horizontal the light pattern would not be right for a vertical mount

What does this do to the warranty? OE lights are integrated into a BCM somehow and I wonder if the add on lighting would have some effect on the absurd high tech electrical systems in these machines.

Suppose it depends on how you wire it up. But if you're just using the harness that comes with the aftermarket lights you're not messing with any of the truck's systems. You're simply pulling power putting it through a relay and switch. Not affecting or in anyway messing with the truck's systems other than the additional power draw from the battery. Which with LEDs should be barely more than a radar detector or tons of gadgets plugged into the truck's outlets/usbs

Hello everyone, newbie here.

Finally got my order in on a 23 Highcountry, DMax….love it!

Searching the Internet I came across this thread. I have a set of PIAA 5370 I plan on installing and was wondering where it would be the best location to wire in the white wire.
It comes with a built in relay.

Any direction would be great

Have been considering a pair of those.

Where are you planning to mount them and will you be using double sided tape or screw/bolt to attach?

In terms of wiring, if white wire is power to switch to signal relay to turn on lights then we need to know if you want a switched power source or power all the time. If switched power source do you want them only on with headlights, running lights or ?
