What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[JollyRoger01]

What glass is that?

Do you like it better? How about that rear handle?

From an 05/06. It's the newer design. Has those plastic pieces up near the roof, on each side of the chsml. There was a third on these 2 different designs about 2 yrs ago. Of course you can't search for it.
Mine is the older style--View attachment 246111

It's from an 05 Denali XL. I like it a lot without the rubber moulding that goes around the glass. I'm actually considering removing the handle. The top piece slides over the top edge and has 3 holes drilled into the glass for mounting. Does the Esky 3rd brake light bolt to the glass itself?

I like it better too. What did it cost you? I see one on eBay but it’s $482!

The Lord blessed me with it for $35.
*OP was too boastful my apologies*

Here are pics of how they mounted the handle and top trim.

Pics of my Esky cluster as promised....Day and Night. Mnuvv this cluster!
New center caps....
I also began removing the side moldings...not too hard used heat gun to soften the glue and got a fingernail behind it, pulled a bit, more heat gun, put on the gloves and then just patiently let the glue pull away from the molding. Used a green eraser wheel from Oreilly's, it didn't last long. Got through one side only before it was gone. Tomorrow gonna find some alcohol to rub on the adhesive 1st and then use a plastic spudger and get most of the heavy material off first. That damn wheel was $30 bucks! Couldn't find any today at Wally World or any drug stores. Corona got em all sold out.
Washed it.

Cluster looks sick. Love the white tach!

Nice! How hard was it and how big are the holes? Any pictures up close? I want to do the same thing

It wasn’t too hard to be honest. Drop headliner enough to reach the bolts holding them in and pull them through and skip wires.

There are 4 holes, 2 on each side. Bigger one is probably 3/4” and the small one smaller than the width of a pen.

I used heavy duty gorilla tape underneath to create a barrier then used bondo glass on the holes.

I’m not horribly impressed with my first attempt at body work. More so due to the paint damage I caused but as I’m wrapping it anyways I’ve basically kicked the can on dealing with paint damage for hopefully 4+ years.

Overall I really like the clean look without the antennas though. Even my wife, who rarely understands why I do anything to my truck said it looks better.

I’ll be dropping it off to the wrap guy on Monday morning so hopefully will have pictures in another week or so.

That bondo will probably sink back into the holes. Not bashing your work.

Thanks man. I was thinking about using some of that metal mesh on the inside. Then using a fiberglass reinforced bondo to fill the hole. Then wrapping the roof

That probably would last much longer.
