^^Thanks. I appreciate it. I actually took the lights out and put the stockers back in today because of the dimness during the day. Was going to start my search for some brighter bulbs.

IDK about yall but I hate side post battery terminals more than I hate the chaffing you get from walking too much in wet undies. Stumbled upon this product on another forum and thought some people may like to see it. I think This is in my near future along with a big 3 upgrade.

No way am I having that much positive post exposed. I can short out my side post, hate to see a dropped wrench on that piece of metal as it welds itself to the fender.

Your right I didn't think of that at first. I'd love to find something similar but with caps or covers over the top.
That’s the first thing I thought of. If it had a cover over the terminal, it would be better. Still a shitload of real estate that’s a hazard.

Maybe a cover to go over the entire battery, I usually use a grypmat for my tools and put it directly on the battery which works well and shields it.

Yeah I love the look of those lights but it is a flawed design. The reflectors should arc behind each bulb...not one big arc behind both the turn signal and tail/turn light. I bet I went through about 5 pairs of different LED's bulbs until I landed on those.

Trans fluid drain and filter change. Hate that job!
Dipped the chrome around rear GMC emblem and the Yukon XL emblems. Working on front emblem now. Tried the Luxury Metal Black Sapphire dip, then glossifier. Not much difference than normal black, maybe a little more “metallic” looking.

It’s the subtle things that really pop (mainly to us who know but still LOL )
