Installed the 4300k kit and 6 weeks later my driver side bulb went out. 14 hrs later my yukon was a smoldering heap of hopes and dreams. The fire started at the driver side head light.....

A + B = DDMs fault

NNBS Sierra Denali's are fucking gay ;)

Jealousy is a stinky cologne.

Esky was great but too much chrome and really f'n expensive to replace anything on it. I have a shit ton of exterior trim pieces (all genuine GM parts) on eBay right now. Close to $2500 worth of exterior trim and suspension parts.

just curious, why not install studs to wire the subs instead of passing the wire through the hole. great start though, good choices being made

I never got the choice. Car toys did it anyway... Good box but poorly placed wire.

Yea if I don't have a job in a decent time after I graduate, it's back to trashghanistan for me.

Yea that wire looks bad, easy fix though

No worries! A new forward facing box is being built to go under the seat. I need to create the seat lift brakets but to do so I need to visit my dad's shop (hour drive).
