What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

I thought about that but if there is not metal to solder to then there is nothing to make the electrical connection and produce heat...unless I'm missing something here with this stuff

You may be right. I just wanted to mention it because it seems it gets better results than resoldering for some reason.

I heated my tab up cleaning it completely (of solder) and did the same on the glass/ grid then resoldered tab to glass/grid in original spot. Kind of a pia by myself but i did it and its holding strong.... for now.

I did read, after the fact, that heating the glass is not good, it can break, but i had no problems. I held tab to glass and heated both at same time the let the solder flow.

Yeah, for shame, for shame..... she’s been neglected the last few months... unfortunately.... the mats are dirty too and that annoys me even more

Mine needs another bath too and in a few weeks a detailer is going to come out and clean her up good. Paint correction, claybar, compound, polish, wax and maybe next year that ceramic stuff like you had done. Took ours to the beach in Daytona again and then the other night was running a trail in 4LO, she ain't purty right now neither! Not to our standards anyway!

I replaced my broken door handle tonight. It broke where the metal crank arm attaches. I never did find the spring. It's still in the door somewhere. I feel pretty good that I only broke one of the plastic tabs holding the triangle trim piece inside the door (see Manly's law of repair). I'll fix that tonight.


Old and Dorman replacement



I did swap the OEM gasket over. But otherwise, they seem identical.

What do ya’ll do for oil changes? I’m planning on using Penzoil Platinum 10w-30 and a PF63 filter. I think I’m going to change it at 30% oil life on the cluster given that its starting to get dark. I’ve only added about 1.7 quarts this oil change.

How many miles is that?
