  • These just showed up on Amazon and I bought a set. I haven't seen anyone run these yet, just the awful photoshops in the listing descriptions. But I put em in and they look pretty good. I do plan to modify them further once I get some time, and make the amber-colored turn signals function as full-time DRLs and tint the lenses. I think it will look pretty good.

    How are these headlights holding up for you? I think they're the best looking "new" lights with the LED DLs. The shape just looks better and more OEM to me. I was just concerned about the LED DLs and turn signals burning out and not being replaceable. Does the startup animation bug out when you start the truck?

    • @GEARHEADdezign
      @GEARHEADdezign  6 месяцев назад +1

      Good so far, after almost a year. No burned LEDs...I do have the same concern.
      The startup animation has a hiccup while the starter turns over and then it's normal. I used my own keyed 12v that drops out while cranking. If you use the factory DRL circuit it won't.

    Howd you get the drls to stay on at night. My drls only work during the day time and shut off as soon as the headlights turn on. I saw a video where a guy put a jumper between pin 87 & 86 where the drl relay goes but i dont lnow if its safe

    • @GEARHEADdezign
      @GEARHEADdezign  7 месяцев назад +1

      I just made my own switched 12v circuit with a fuse tap. The drl circuit turns off at night or with ebrake on, or park in auto.

      It was really simple, just a 12v switched for the DRL and turn signal wire and ground

    Hey man I seen ur videos about transmissions I'm trying to swap my c1500 to a 454 manual do you know what transmission would fit a 454 and maintain the 2wd

    • @GEARHEADdezign
      @GEARHEADdezign  Год назад +1

      Technically...you can use ANY manual from GM. NV3500 or NV4500 would be a bolt in for that 88-98 generation. But you could also do T5, T56...

      Wow, way cheaper too. The seller must have changed the listing. I just went to my Amazon orders and when I got share it goes back to the black housing with different photos. Doesn't look like those have the sequential turn signal either. Maybe they're unavailable now?

      Peeled the chrome plating off and then typical paint prep. A razor can get under the chrome and then just peel. It sucks🤣
