Thanks for posting this bro! I’m expecting a Canyon middle of August and was wondering about the tint and how those Govee lights would wire in. Helped a bunch, thanks!
I have 20s as well. I saw some people take off the air dam but I’m not too sure how I like the look the exposed plastics. I plan on taking it off but when I get the ZR2 skid plate.
Here in Miami there’s illegal tints everywhere. People drive with 5%-15% tints. The 50% isn’t even that dark, it’s a slight tint compared to the 70% they showed me that looked clear. For the 2 sides and front windshield I paid $160.
I got it in Miami Lakes. I wouldn’t say I got the best deal but I happened to walk in the day it was delivered and they sell very quickly. I had a down payment put down on one in Estero, FL but was bare. This truck is almost fully loaded and was only $3k more than the one I had reserved. So I was able to get a refund on the Estero truck and snagged this one.
Yea the seats move up. I can’t remember if the power seats are part of a convenience package or not but either way I think moving seats is something standard nowadays.
Thanks! I haven’t heard of it but at a quick glance I don’t feel like it’s something the truck needs. The throttle feels very responsive in my opinion.
I had a 2022 Tacoma that was really helped by the Pedal Commander. However in my 2023 Colorado with the Turbo Plus engine there is no, no, throttle lag or turbo lag even from a dead stop. Thus as much as I liked it in the Taco I see no need for one now.
We’ll where the fog lights are located on the Z71, the Trail Boss looks like the fake vents are removable. Would be interesting if you can install Z71 fog lights. And then you can just add it to a switch. I’m planning on buying a Switch Pros 9100 to be able to directly connect all future aftermarket mods.
Those lights look way better than I was thinking they would. Which specific GoVee RGBIC kit did you use? They make them in a bunch of different lengths.
They still look great to this day! The one I ordered wasn’t a particular length. It’s a kit made specifically for a car. Try searching “Govee RGBIC Interior Car Lights.”
Took me a long time to find one as well! I believed the one I used was F25 Auxiliary USB Power Outlet. I’m surprised the freaking sunroof fuse is constant.
@@Mi4mi_joe ya I’ll be getting the skid plate too. I like the look without the lip. You can see the stock plastic plate and hooks better. Hopefully parts will be quicker through gm. Took me a month to get a tail light
@@mercilessforever you swapped the taillights out with another trim’s? I really want to swap out the headlight housings but not sure if it’s possible yet with the harness already in the truck or if you need some adapter. Would love to get the Z71 headlights.
F25. It’s a switched fuse so it only powers on when the truck is on and powers off when the truck is off. While the truck is on you can control them from the app however you’d like. If you leave them on, they remember to turn on when you turn the truck back on.

2023 Colorado has to be the best looking mid size truck. Have you thought of installing a sound system? Not a lot of room for a subwoofer. curious what size shallow sub will fit under the rear seats. Might have to take out the plastic trim tho.
I agree! Feel like the mid size king driving around. Haven’t seen another one yet. I thought about it but for now the sound system isn’t too bad! There’s another guy who installed a sub under the rear seats with slight modification. Should come up through search easily.
@@Thatbeardedguy86 Question - did your exhaust get louder after install then? If I turn the sub off, the truck is quieter under acceleration. But if it is on just 1/4 power, it rocks the sub inside (radio off). I'm thinking GM piped some artificial sound into the bass to make up for the 4 cylinder. ... Or they wired it poorly :P
Looking good too bad in my stool you're not allowed to attend the front window. Also Chevy only has a two year warranty on their bed spray. Where Line-X is lifetime.
Not legal here either but no one really cracks down on tints here. Currently heading home from a trip in 94 degree weather and my cab is completely cool on the low setting. Don’t even feel the heat from the sun when it hits my skin. Super glad I did the front windshield. And as far as visibility, the 50% is great. Don’t feel affected even at night. And yes! Glad I have the line-x honestly. Worth the money for the lifetime of the vehicle. Way better than the factory spray on the tailgate.
Drives really nice! I am coming from a 1995 Jeep Wrangler so keep that in mind. But I’ve done a couple hour and half trips and been extremely comfortable. I’ll be doing a 2 and a half hour drive this weekend. If I do a 1000 mile update I’ll try to mention comfortability.

You cannot be that dumb to tint your front driver's window any type of accident you get into they're automatically going to try to blame you because of your window being tinted beside it's illegal make sure you have at least a $500,000 insurance policy because you're going to need it
Nice. I didn't think those lights were going to be so nice. Great job
Thanks!! Looks great when you can hide all those wires!
Great looking truck … this new gen Colorado is excellent. I had a 2019 & had to sell it a while back, but looking to get back into one of these. 👍🏻
This is my first truck. Coming from a 1995 Jeep wrangler 😂 I’m loving it.
Ice dude 👍🏻. I will be getting my truck sometime in 2024.
Thanks for posting this bro! I’m expecting a Canyon middle of August and was wondering about the tint and how those Govee lights would wire in. Helped a bunch, thanks!
No problem! Glad it helped!
I have the exact one like that but with 20s. I also removed the air dam. Looks better.

@Mi4mi_joe Yeah I thought the were 20's but wasn't sure of the picture.
Google the pics it looks great
Especially with the 20s it looks more off-road and gives more clearance.
thats nice and clean , i like the tint , dont know if i can do 50 in new jersey , probably do 20 , how much did you py for your tint job ?

How due i change my gages it seems like my truck dint come with tfat one
You post the link to the Govee lights? Thx
Been looking into getting this truck! What dealership did you get this and did you get a good deal? I live in South Florida as well!

Hey just wondering do the seats move up, I’m 5’4 and was wondering if it would be a struggle to see over the dash
Yea the seats move up. I can’t remember if the power seats are part of a convenience package or not but either way I think moving seats is something standard nowadays.
Hey Joey…nice truck! I’m looking at getting a ZR2. Have you thought about trying out a Pedal Commander, Throttle Response Controller?

How would you go about installing fog lights? Probably have to put a toggle switch.

@@Mi4mi_joe Excellent. Had the truck for a week now so already looking into mods. Thanks.
Nice truck. How much was it for the Line-X?
The premium was $700 for me.
Bro I Got 1 Also.. Wow 4 Real.. Rado Gang!
Loving it.
What fuse slot did you use? The ones the accessory ones I have tried are not turning the lights off when the vehicle turns off.
Took me a long time to find one as well! I believed the one I used was F25 Auxiliary USB Power Outlet. I’m surprised the freaking sunroof fuse is constant.
@@Mi4mi_joe Thanks for your help! That one seemed to do the trick!
@@anthonynagy7502 no problem! Trust me it took my a long time. I almost gave up 😂
I took the diffuser lip off the front and vent visors on my Colorado so far.
I may take mine off but only if I’m going to buy the ZR2 skid plate. I’m loving the gas mileage I’m getting. 30mpg is my best average 🤯

@@leperkonwas skeptical about the 2.7 but the more I look into it the more I want it haha
Buy the canyon way better dollar value.
Has more power but the toyota is not a good looking truck. Colorado blows it out of the water on looks and right on its heels on performance
Where do you get these lights … I want em on mine z71
Amazon. They’re the Govee RBCIC strip lights.
What are the exact specs .. don’t wanna get the wrong one

point taken , would be nice to have 20 up front to match , you have a point its a liability
Exactly what I was thinking
2024 TACOMA SMOKES THE COLORADO TRAIL BOSS
326 HP
465 TORQUE @ 1700 RPM
SMOKES IT
👏
Get ur facts straight kid, only the TRD Pro ( most expensive version) with a hybrid beats these or the Canyons in HP or torque (barely at that).
Won't the limo black window tint up front get you pulled over by the state troopers 🤔
It’s nowhere near limo tinted 😂 it’s 50%. And no one has told me anything and I’ve been on about 4 long distance trips since getting the tints on.
