what year is your truck? Also with the install of the 3rd light, did you have to do any type of mods to make it fit. I just brought a kit and it does fit my 07
I believe your asking about the third brake light. Cadillac made a similar truck but it had this larger brake light like I installed along with painted cladding unlike Chevy that used a very small brake light and didn’t paint all the plastic parts. I just swapped the parts from a junked Cadillac EXT that someone on marketplace was selling parts off of.
The cladding that mounts to the back of the cab has several screws that bolts it down to cab and there is about six screws on the inside of that cladding part that holds the third brake light in place
@@TreadOnFire I'm switching mine to the EXT cladding and 3rd brake light also. I was trying to figure out what holds it on on the bottom. I know there are six torx bolts on top of the 3rd brake light.
@@lorettamulkey7508 the Chevy cladding had two bolts and some clips holding the bottom but the Cadillac only had two little plastic pieces that used a double sided tape that clipped to the cladding basically nothing but it seamed to be stable so I didn’t worry to much about it. If it becomes a problem later I will have to modify something to hold it. I’ll video it if I do.
I own a Black 2013 Avalanche LTZ Black Diamond. Bought it brand new and still love driving it. Yours looks sharp with that upgrade. Nice!
I think i broke every clip on the sail panel 😂😂 great video 💪🏽👍
Awesome job it really made a huge difference. I need to do that to .ine but dealing with the rain gutters in the bed.
Solid video, look good! Badass lights!
Nice! was just thinking about doing the same thing with mine minus the strobes
Awesome job! Where did you find the white plastic retaining clips?
On Amazon I just went pictures and matched them
How come third brake light doesn’t work? Will it work on a 2007 avalanche?
Nice what did you use to restore the plastic
Did you buy the lights on the inside they seem new , if yes where at
Good job on the replacement but where did you find the clips to reinstall it and do you have to part number or website
On Amazon I just typed it the vehicle info and used words cladding clips and just matched them up by the pictures on Amazon

It’s a 2005 no mods to make it work because I used all of the Cadillac parts and they go right on the Chevy.
What do you call that piece your replaced and where did you find it?

Would this work for a 02 avalanche as well???
From what I’ve found yes but definitely do your research.
How did you get the lights to flash without a flashing module?
Each light has its own built in module you just set the pattern and then every time you apply 12v power it does what you programmed it to do.
@@TreadOnFire ok, how you set the pattern! Mines broken on the side, loose connections.
Hey where can I purchase those snap pieces from
I bought mine on Amazon

The cladding that mounts to the back of the cab has several screws that bolts it down to cab and there is about six screws on the inside of that cladding part that holds the third brake light in place
