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

I thought I was smelling burnt voice coil, but instead, I was smelling brake pad.

Now I need to take it apart and grease the slide pins and clean the hardware I guess and make sure everything is moving smoothly. Hopefully the pads are fine.

Hmm, something's not right.

I'd have to think that plenty of owners have done this if it's an easy swap....and I'd have to imagine it is because I think the dashes/clusters between the trucks and suv's are the same.

But, I was watching a Youtube video recently about something and the guy's truck was a 2009 GMC Sierra, and the cluster bezel had more of a "depth" to it and inset to the gauges and chrome accent rings around them. It got me to thinking about maybe doing this at some point to my Yukon. Maybe just black with the chrome gauge accent rings, maybe wrap it in a carbon fiber vinyl or something.

Road-trip done... off to the car wash. Love free vacuums, love these weather-techs(glad they came with the truck $$$)

Interesting idea. I've seen folks swap Escalade clusters in. But the bezels are shaped differently, and require some fabrication to fit. If the truck bezel is the same physical shape as the Yukon, you're halfway there. Would the odometer have to be reprogrammed? Or are the miles stored in the ECU or BCM?

Not talking about swapping the entire cluster. Just the plastic bezel piece that goes in the front of it.

Mind you, I haven't really looked into whether it would even work. I think the dash and clusters are virtually the same in all the GMT900's regardless of truck or SUV (Escalade models excluded), but I don't know this to be certain. Just a thought I had when I was watching that Youtube video earlier.

mileage/hours, oil usage, etc is stored in the cluster

Had a busy Saturday. Added LED+resistors to the rear signals. switched to H9 headlight bulbs, and wired up front sequential turn signals.

Nice job on the turn signals. Instructions on how you did that?

Never mind. I saw the write up in the Tech section.
