Will this roof rack fit?

Here's a color matched Esky rack pic from SS HOE back in 2011 to give you an idea.

Looks good either way. Guess depends on the wheels and overall looks style of the truck

The Esky rear vents fit just fine but if you use them with the Tahoe/Yukon back glass then there is a partial hump towards the top that sticks out. That is mainly noticeable from looking side to side across the back. The reason for the hump is to match the Esky 3rd brake light. If you are planning on blending your Tahoe with Esky parts then grab the rack,rear vents, back glass w 3rd brake light. All of these items will bolt right up. I've noticed alot of the NBS Esky 3rd brake lights are partially burnt out...but have have seen replacement lenses or places that repair them. Don't forget the center console clock too lol......

Interesting note on the esky end vents. I put them on my 2006 Denali XL. Theres no hump @ the top of the vent that you mentioned.

Fosscore, is it straight bolt on? No funny business?

The esky told racks are straight bolt on using your hardware from stock racks. However most people that are selling the esky racks don't realize they need to send those anchor bolts with the racks. It took me about a month to track them down.so make sure they send you the anchor bolts! Ended up getting them through the GM website. dealerships wanted alot more than what the GM site charged me. But still spent about $40. But I had to order 4 of them since I have the long wheel base.

You are correct on all points about the hardware. Those anchor bolts are definitely key to the rack fitting properly. Good looking XL. Color matching that rear window appliqué to match the vents and rack ends would look pretty darn sweet. Hint, hint..

@treehan77

Spyder LED clear tail lights with superbrightleds.com LED reverse lights.

Here are some pics to answer your questions about how they light up. Hope this answers what you were asking.

Unlocking the doors. Reverse lights only.



Brake lights. And just noticed that an LED burnt out in the 3rd brake lights. That is a new failure.



Reverse and brake.



Brake and right turn signal in between flashes.

Thanks. I saw somewhere once a diy to make both banks of lights stay on with lights, but still only one bank blinks with a turn and one bank brightens with brakes. but can't find it anymore. Also may or may not have been these lights anyway.

Edit found it. Anyone try this lately? Seems like some people had issues,
