Black housing lights for sure. I would say, match the fogs too. Another small upgrade that I’m sure you have looked into would be black factory Escalade door handles. Big difference
Super clean setup man. Just a suggestion for future content on this truck would be a black logo, maybe vertical or mesh grill with black and milled snowflakes. Color matched flares and chrome handles only. Not critiquing, just sharing the passion man. That black gmc in that body style has always been one cleanest trucks to me.
You should pick up one of those tailgate struts. Pretty cheap and simple upgrade but really nice especially when youre used to the soft opening on the new trucks
Might consider a good grease on all hinges, bit messy but the hinges will last forever. Squeek control and last forever. I get the tubes from any car place and load it on. The truck might one day be gone but the hinges will still be perfect. lol
100% regular WD40 is one of the worst things you can use on truck hinges and door latches. There is a reason GM recommends super lube, it’s a silicone based lubricant. WD40 also makes some silicone based lubricants. WD40 won’t last more then a week keeping that hinge squeak free, and because it’s oil based it will attract dirt and can actually damage the latches and hinges.
Just got one of these for $1,000 from a good friend, interior and exterior in perfect condition and everything is stock. Ive been watching all of your videos, ready to copy all of your ideas! lol keep em coming!
Those orange corner lights are t10 bulb size, the same as your tag lights and door lights. Put some white led ones in to match the switch back and it’ll look so much better
Bought my 2000 with a cracked windshield, i was surprised to be able to get a brand new shield for about a $120. What a difference a clean new shield makes! Its like there is no glass at all without all the little chips and scratches.
Really liked the video. I have a 2002 Silverado that I want to fix/upgrade everything on. Thanks for some great ideas. I personally love the badges, mine have literally melted down!
I just took orange marker housings off my S10, put in some black ones and it gave a much more aggressive look to the front. Replacing the bulbs to LEDs is a necessity for older trucks for sure. I went with Sylvania interior and exterior, solved the hyperflash with a Novita Flasher from Advance.
Cant wait until im done with upgrading my 04, new bumpers, front with a brush guard, new tailgate with tailgate cap, new headlights, new tail lights,new radio, remote start, new battery, 2nd battery, new cold air,
The little light you said you was gonna unplug jus buy a switch back LED they're marker lights, you can buy a fuse thing from Fleece that'll turn on all the lights at once
I don’t even watch ur videos because I want to learn about what ur doing but your videos are exciting and you always learn something keep growing man!!
I always spray all my hinges and latches with WD/40 when I buy a new (to me) truck! I like the chrome look personally, I have a 2018 F150 magnetic gray and all chrome… actually just added chrome mirrors over the weekend! Chomper looks good with the black/chrome combo for me… keep up the incredible work 👍
Truck would look even meaner at night with some pure white rock lights to tie in with the leds, I had mine all decked out with the led lights and the relay to turn all the lights low high etc on at the same time
Super sharp truck by the way! I've had from the 97 z71 (2 of those), 05 crew cab z71 smoke grey years ago that i kick myself for selling, a 09 z71, 2014 z71, 2017 denali, to a 2018 duramax, now a 09 duramax and a daily 4x4 06 tahoe, Those 99 to 06 models by far are the best, comfortable interior, easy to work on and the best motors by far! Wouldn't sell my tahoe for the world. Y
don’t unplug those amber lights in the front just buy some pure white ones to replace them. i have switchbacks as well and it looks sick when it blinks
I like the black housings on the front headlights better to be honest. I run them in my 92 OBS Chevy even tho people tell me to put chromes in. Just my personal opinion.
I only wish I could add WD-40 to everything on my old truck. Problem is I live in a desert and the oil only collects more dirt which makes it squeak even more. PB Blaster works better as it cleans up nice without any oil residue for dust to collect on.
Miss those days when manufacturers made it easy to remove head lights and tail lights for basic changeout and bulb replacement. Now a days the whole bumper assembly needs to be removed.
Spray the door on bottom where the water drains out of door should have 3 on each door. How is the head lights at night any difference? Fog lights keep as same
You should definitely look into the fleece light control for the 4 high mod I think they make them with a 6 high mod for these trucks with the fog lights
I wish more people understood what WD-40 was actually intended for. It's not a lubricant. You need some white lithium grease or even silicone spray on those hinges.
Having grown up in and around these trucks, that rear door squeak is factory 😂
My 04 Tahoe rear back door does it too 😅
@@nep639 my dad had one, both rear doors did it too😂
Yep my 02 crew cab has the same squeak in the back😂
Yeah, I even got scared when I got a project tahoe to lower it. It didn’t have any creaks on the doors. I was used to it.
Just needs some white lithium grease. Wd-40 isn't gonna do crap
Black housing lights for sure. I would say, match the fogs too. Another small upgrade that I’m sure you have looked into would be black factory Escalade door handles. Big difference
what year escalade handles work on the 01 silverado
Probably my favorite truck on UA-cam. Clean and simple.
You gotta do the 6-hi mod. Them body styles are sick when you have every light glowing at night🤙🏽
I agree
You are 100% right. Because of all the chrome, the black housing breaks it up. Looks awesome!!!
Silicone spray is great for those doors💯
Ngl I think chomper is my favorite truck in the fleet rn I love the look of that black and chrome

The squeak is a keeper give it that good ol truck feel
I would like to see it with the clear headlights and a color matched grill, leaving the top strip of the bumper chrome.
Hey. Here’s an idea. Keep the dark lights on chopper and put the clear lights on the red gmc.
You should pick up one of those tailgate struts. Pretty cheap and simple upgrade but really nice especially when youre used to the soft opening on the new trucks
Hey bro where can I get some or what is a brand I can look up? Thanks
I got that and it really is nice.
@@ARdave311deezee ez tailgate assist
My mom gave me one off Amazon for Christmas and it’s been sweet, super worth it, just a nice little thing to have
You should do a rear bumper swap on chomper from stock to the 2014+ chevy bumpers. Did one on my cateye and it looks amazing.
actually i think the 07-13 bumper looks better it goes better with the round look of these trucks
@@Tr3ygocraa actually I think the 19+ look better
Nah those little steps on both sides looks absolutely disgusting, I agree with 07-13 bumper them are nice
Those are the only windshield wipers I buy and absolutely love them and I’ve since then switched over to the rain x windshield washer fluid as well

Love the videos. On my previous obs I had an adapter that would allow fog, low, and high beams all at once. Easy install
Rice family he is a very very great hard worker

Black housing looks great. I’m an old school clear light halogen bulb guy but I might change my mind after seeing this

black gmc badge will totally tie it together
Put the tool box and whip on. Put clears back in and get some chrome door handles

PLEASE consider a Denali grill, I think it would look amazing
Vote for the black headlights... They tie in with the black tail lights... Some black fog light housings would really be the move
I believe there is a graphite type spray that is better than wd-40. WD-40 attracts dirt and it the hinge can get gunked up.
I don’t even watch ur videos because I want to learn about what ur doing but your videos are exciting and you always learn something keep growing man!!
3 min mark is exactly why i love those trucks. My 08 wants you to take off half the front or have small japanese hands.

I could smell the beginning of this video
Black housing looks better. But, both look great.
2001 Sierra reporting in. I simply accepted the driver door squeak.......I now consider it a bad of honor lol

Black housing looks good. I'm getting ready to put some on my truck
First upgrade. Grease the doors 😂
Do a ranch hand brush guard🔥
Just another follower Just got 2005 gmc sierra from older guy pretty much all stuck in the truck so excited to make it looks like yours
don’t unplug those amber lights in the front just buy some pure white ones to replace them. i have switchbacks as well and it looks sick when it blinks
I did all the same light upgrades in my 2002 suburban it’s looks awesome. Makes everything super bright inside lol
Just watching this makes me want to work on my 01 Chevy Tahoe 😍
I feel called out for the windshield wipers....
black in black sierra and clears in red sierra!! on chomper you most definitely gotta tint those fogs!! looks awesome man
I like and I rock black housings.
I didn't wanna like the headlights.....now, I'm gonna buy smoked lights, damn you 🤪
I like the black housings on the front headlights better to be honest. I run them in my 92 OBS Chevy even tho people tell me to put chromes in. Just my personal opinion.
Also recommended one of those under the tail gate brake lights with turn signal. Really improves viability and looks cool.
I love the color match headlights personally more then the chrome, but at the end of the day it's you're truck brother LMF for life 💪✌️
Rubber silicon spray is a must for ALL VEHICLES
You should start selling shirts with the saying “what’s goin on guys” on it I def buy one! Love you stuff man!
Light bar behind grill!!!!!!!!👌🏽💯
The black is fire🔥🔥💯not gon lie
You should get rock lights. It would look great in my opinion.
Black housing looks good
Im go with some on my 2015 Chevy Silverado
I love the black better than clear they stand out better and I love the black on black look keep up the good work look forward for more on chomper
Keep the black headlights, it looks good. I’d tint the fog lights for a more custom look. Keep the videos coming 🤙🏽
Black housing for sure.. looks badass
I think the black housings look way better
I unplugged my corner lights. Definitely the move with switchbacks
Make a video on the trimming you did to fit the 35s I just bought the same tires for my 2013 Sierra
You should get a shock on your tailgate so it’s a soft open, I just got one and it makes it feel like a new truck
Can you post what lights you got for the inside and out. Which ones and where from. Thanks.
I like the black housing MUCH better
Don’t unplug the front side marker lights they look good. You can get white LED for them also.
I only wish I could add WD-40 to everything on my old truck. Problem is I live in a desert and the oil only collects more dirt which makes it squeak even more. PB Blaster works better as it cleans up nice without any oil residue for dust to collect on.
Do you happen to have the part numbers for all of the bulbs you used? That would be really helpful to those of us wanting to do the same upgrades.
Miss those days when manufacturers made it easy to remove head lights and tail lights for basic changeout and bulb replacement. Now a days the whole bumper assembly needs to be removed.
Chrome fits the clear heads
Spray the door on bottom where the water drains out of door should have 3 on each door. How is the head lights at night any difference? Fog lights keep as same
Clears the way to go always
A video of old chomp wouldn’t be complete without an appearance from the weed eater head in the bed. 😂👍🏻
This truck looks stunning 💪
Id use some white lithium grease, it will help lube the area constantly and keep it from squeaking
I think I like the chrome just a little bit better, but both look great.
Keep the black housing,
Love them, they look tons better!
You should definitely look into the fleece light control for the 4 high mod I think they make them with a 6 high mod for these trucks with the fog lights
chrome upper headlights and black on the lower running lights
Black housings for sure
Save ur Money ! Leave it Stock ! 👍😁
Apparently I missed this part but what brand headlight and foglight bulbs?
Can you please send the link of the Amazon shop you bought the lights from?
I wish more people understood what WD-40 was actually intended for. It's not a lubricant. You need some white lithium grease or even silicone spray on those hinges.
Amen. Any cheap W/M spray lube is better than WD40 for that.
Do you have a list of the items purchased? I don’t see it on the description.
No link for them black housing headlights?
The clears are def better
Where did you get the black housings from? I’ve ordered a couple of different versions and they fit like crap.
where did you get the bullet antenna?, they keep sending me the wrong one for my 06 chevy
Put the black housings on the red truck and keep the clears for chomper
Put a double din radio on your red sierra!!!!!
That’s a badass gmc
May want to fix that squat next
Can you give us an update on your moog suspension please and if your satisfied with them can you please give us a link to them!
Nice tires
What headlight leds you using? I don’t think you replaced them so I didn’t see what brand they are
Keep the black housings and put the clears in Clifford 🤘
