Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

[Rocket Man]

It was re: your CV self-powered sub box. I just spent the better part of 2 days reading through this entire thread. All I can say is: WOW Mark, you take care of business. I like seeing all the work you’ve done to the Machine, and really appreciate you including all the details surrounding your thought process and troubleshooting. The truck was pretty badass when you bought it, but it obviously needed your attention to the details to make it right in every way. Props brother, that truck is just sick. Keep up the great work. This serves as motivation to many others!

Thanks buddy.

I thought you did. It's been a while but I remember those pics now.

After looking at the center I’m going to remove the wrap on the HVAC controls. Especially since a new brushed metal main bezel is coming. Also the new TC button/ power outlet assembly is going to be black. I also have a USB outlet connected to the HU and ready to go that will replace one of the power outlets.

@Tonyrodz where did you get that film? I need to do that to the odometer in The Beast,

I think Chris had it. I'm glad this came up and jogged my memory. I'm sure he'll enlighten us.

@iamdub ?

This would be very nice to have... [emoji106][emoji16]

Looks better but now I see I’ll have to PTM the radio bezel which means painting all 3 pieces.

D’oh! Well, that’s just a little more satisfaction that you made it perfect. [emoji106][emoji16]

Muh buddy @iamdub hooked me up. I couldn't find it anywhere near me.

Got some parts in from Ebay today and I’m happy to say they all look like new. I always wonder when buying used parts because sometimes the pics make them
look bad and when you message the sellers they’re not much help. Even the plastic caps on the power outlets look like they’ve never been used. I needed the headlight switch in order to assess if my rocker switches for the bags would fit in the pocket, and I see there’s no way so I ordered the AVS 3-rocker remote. I kinda wanted an excuse to convert to it anyway.
