since it's such flexy plastic, color matching might be hard. if it scrapes or flex's, unfortunately the paint will stress and crack. IMO

I used 2 bolts and the rest zip ties on my Tahoe. Which is what they originally came on, but they only came stock on the 05 year LT package.

latest shenanigans

pulled out the old (barely holding on) oil dipstick tube. you can see the support bar was completely cracked off

replaced with a new Dorman one from good ol RockAuto. Took about a half hour. i didnt even need to pull any spark plug wires, i just used a high powered LED flashlight and at the right angle i could see the hole it went into. went pretty smooth.

my floor mats were hella dirty from previous owner. vacuumed the heck out of them,

way better! you shoulda seen how black the water was that i dumped out of the cleaner. nasty

had an amp and a box sitting around, decided to add it to the Denali. ran all the wires RCA, remote, 4 gauge ground and power (fused).since it was already crossed over from the factory setup, this was an easy addition once i got it all wired. hard to show you with a picture, but after dialing in all my levels over the last day or so. it sounds great!

subs (removed 3rd row seats again... for now)
