Look good, I like it... did you have the gauge face custom made or did you order it from somewhere?

Also, why is your DIC not lit up?... lol

I got it off ebay from Digital Dash Solutions. You cant see what they have currently because corna virus but they will be back. they make a bunch of OEM styled replacement faces. It was cheap if nothing else.

DIC isnt lit because I just went out and turned the parking lights on, no key in haha

You could have done the Escalade cluster swap. It’s a bit more difficult though.

Yeah theres more involved with that and to me its not worth the extra effort. I like the 6 gauge cluster better for whatever reason. I think it will look better once I swap LEDs ( which i will eventually do lets be honest :waytogo:)

Also looking at the escalade G4 styled LED taillights. the stock ones dont bother me much but i like the LED look better. I did find some stock look LED replacements but after looking at them more i dont like them. Guess Im gonna wait til the corona calms down in Cali a little before I order them since they all come from California

I also went super randomly and found a leather wrapped escalade shifter that happened to have an ebay coupon, and was the last one in stock so I bought that this morning...whoops. I think tint and the led tails will be the next steps before vacation.

So since everything is all covid delayed, i brought out my old friend plastidip and painters tape...both bowties are now black and i removed the stupid little 'LT' badges on the rear quarter behind the doors. Much better

Also today my esky shifter showed up and I tossed that in

Was a brand new in the box part, its excellent. The one I had in my NBS sierra had a crack in the chrome, not this time.

Next things on the list are G4 esky tails, tint and maybe a hitch closeout...I cant decide if I like those or not.

you know thats a great question, i was just refering to part numbers when i ordered it, this is part 25807853. Listing says its for 08+ so maybe the front seam was an 07 thing???

The one i had in my NBS was also front stitched but that didnt really bother me
