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

[DenaliReyes]

I see it came with it’s own brackets, and I see it doesn’t really look finished. So the question remains- can you use a standard install kit like a Metra or Scosche to make it look better? They’re only about $16, might be worth a try. Scosche GM1598AB Single/Double DIN Installation Dash Kit for 2006-Up Chevrolet Impala/Tahoe https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002S0OB5A/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tau_LOz3EbAC4FP59

I see what you see, and the answer to your question is, maybe.

Scosche has some nice ones.

pass side rear panel cover. theres also a module that goes bad in the same location.

you can take the panel off unplug the actuator and manually turn it to cold, or hot. need to keep the actuator on the knob to hold the knob in place. (its the one on the side furthest back. the one up further and more to the top is for the air flow direction.) till you get the part in hand if really needed. i had mine locked on heat since last fall. just never took the 15 minutes to change the part after it came in.

@Scottydoggs
Is it the one I marked up with the arrow?
What does the module do?

thats the one. that module is like a brain of the system. its a 100 bucks, actuator is 20 on rockauto. you'll find its part number on the old one in the truck.

Any ideas where to place aftermarket backup cameras?
I managed to run the wires under the driver side trim all the way to the back. Then under the cargo carpet. I filed a space for the wire to hide under the weather stripping on the stamped steel.
Then tapped into the reverse light to turn on the camera when used.
The camera is being held by the trim, I cut a line thru the trim enough to slide in the camera stand. Did not use any screws.
Will see how long this holds.
Possibly adding some silicone the back of the camera to help with the outside elements.

I bought one that mounts behind the plate. I dig it, but a different design from yours.

That’s what I did, but the Auto-Vox Cam2.

So much nicer then the usual over the license plate mount.
