    Made An Exhaust Vid

    This is my first time making a vid of my truck, just to give people an idea of what it sounds like. I think it's pretty good considering its a flowmaster. I've had it a little over a year now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaHzXiB0LKQ

    LED 3rd brake light?

    Hey I just ordered a pair of those smoked X3 Racing LED tail lights that a few people have. Can't wait to put them in. But I was thinking of replacing the 3rd brake light with something LED (preferably smoked also) to compliment the look. I checked on ebay but either they are for 07+ or for...

    Black rims on a white Yukon?

    Ok this is only talk, but certainly after I get a Blackbear tune and finish up my system, I'm going to have nothing else to do to the inside of this truck and I'm going to want to have some exterior work done. Here's stuff I would like to do: Debadge and remove side moldings Paint front GMC...

    Exhaust Tips?

    Ok so I've got the Flowmaster American Thunder cat-back system which consist of the 50 Series SUV muffler with two exit pipes going to the rear. They are each 2.5" in diameter and go into 3.5" tips that are 12" long I think. The problem is that I think the tips are too small in diameter im...

    How long can you run audio off battery?

    Hey I just want to know how long it is safe to play music with the truck not running. The reason is because I'm looking to use the Yukon as means for tailgating for the home games here at the University of South Carolina. I see people doing it all the time, but is it safe to run your audio...

    Zero AM reception...

    Went for a drive tonight and noticed I had no AM radio reception at all. Just noise on every station that should be perfectly fine. I would have said the tuner went bad like in my OEM unit, but this is a new HU. The AM/FM both worked great when I got it. It's hard to tell when exactly this...

    RMA'd my amp

    For those of you that don't know, I RMA'd my Rockford Fosgate P550.2 to techronics.com because the inside fried through. This was probably due to distortion/poor signal and the fact that I was using my old OEM battery that was probably the original. But in the weeks of not having my two 12"s...

    Another audio problem...

    These topics must be getting old to you guys but I can't figure this out for the life of me. This issue has been happening since I put in my first sub. I'll be driving for several minutes with the music playing and the subs going. Suddenly, the amp sounds as if I turned the gain up or...

    Coolest cars you've ever been in?

    Just thought I'd start a thread for us to talk about some of the neatest cars we've driven/ridden in. When I was 15 (3.5 years ago), our local car shop rented out a track in Savannah, GA as a test and tune day. Their main driver gave me a ride in their Porsche GT3 Supercup car and I have...

    Amp overheating?

    Hi, I'm running a Rockford Fosgate amplifier that's bridged to my subs. It seems to have an overheating issue. I have my gain turned completely down, only using the included bass knob to control the bass boost. The "Bass" setting on the stock HU is in the middle like it always has been, so...

    Wiring Harness for Head Unit?

    Hi all, things are looking pretty good for me getting my subs in next weekend. A new head unit is next on the agenda. I already know what I'm getting, but is it true that you have to buy a new wiring harness just to get it to work? The guy at the local audio shop said that for the past...

    Getting subs

    I'm pretty sure that tomorrow I'm going to end up ordering a Rockford Fosgate p500.2 amp. If all goes well and I get that, I'm looking into a pair of Rockford Fosgate Punch Stage 3 12"s subs. The amp is rated for 500 watts rms, and I can bridge it to run a 4ohm load 500w rms to the two subs...

    Need some audio help

    Well here's the story. This past Christmas, I got a Zune 30GB as a surprise and I never expected it. But what really excited me was when I knew I could get a new Head Unit for the Yukon and run the Zune into it. Burning audio CDs was getting really old for me and it was really a pain changing...

    My Volant Story

    Well after waiting and waiting since ordering the Volant Intake before Christmas, I finally got it. I ordered it from autoanything.com, and it got stuck in Greensboro, NC for over a week! I called them and they sent another just to be nice because we concluded that the original must have been...

    Different DRLs?

    Hi, I'm running Silverstar Ultra low-beams and Silverstar Ultra fog lights. They look awesome, but now my yellow DRLs look out of place. Can anyone recommend some bulbs that look cool and maybe unique? I'm not looking for anything too crazy like purple, but are there blueish-white looking...

    Chrome Polish?

    Hi, I just washed the Yukon on Sunday, and I waxed the roof and hood yesterday when I got home from school. Today, I did the front end and the front doors. Tomorrow, I should finish up with the back doors and rear end. This turned out to be a 3-day job because I only have an hour and a half...
