    lowered, pulsating sensation when braking and turning

    if your truck didn't come with 20's from the factory, have the truck reflashed to accept the 20 tires. Also have a good alignment done with someone willing to try a few different settings. Sometimes just getting to a factory spec just isn't good enough. I had this problem when we dropped ours...

    OEM Navigation radio install

    ok, so you plugged the connector with two wires, that came with your kit into the VCIM box under the radio.

    Getwired, i got them around the end of last year or right at the beginning of this year, i can't remember exactly. To this date no problems, no flickering during operation, no dead leds. The only wierd thing they do is if the lights time out (leave a door open) and you turn that light on via the...

    Door/Key in ignition chime coming through speakers

    the chimes output is on the Left front speaker, so when you put in the amp it amplifies the chime as well. You can use the front right channel and feed into the Left in on the amp and this would kill the chimes. The only draw back is you will lose Stereo Left/Right at the amp......

    Where to mount trailer brake controller?

    most people mount the controller to the right of the steering wheel at the bottom of the dash. Its out of the way and still easy to reach when needed. In the new 07 GM's they ditched the plug harness and left you wires under the dash. Look under the left side of the dash under the brake release...
