Do yourself a favor and just get a V Sport Premium. I had a base and now have a premium and I don't know what I was thinking every owning a base. So much nicer.
True, but that sunroof is nice and frankly used ones are so cheap I'd think you'd have more in converting a base than just buying a premium. I feel like I stole my premium.
@@xImaginereal it is really easy to do it yourself once you find the cluster amd have it programmed. There is a video here on UA-cam of someone actually doing the swap. Otherwise an audio shop would probably do it.
I bought the suede wheel with shift paddles it was only $225 plus 50 for dealer to install from gm accessories. I also bought a suede shift boot/knob as well. I got that for $75. I love the shifter feels soooo nice, can’t wait for the steering wheel! It’s on back order.
I have a video on G2 paint. I suggest getting better brushes though. Detailed Brake Caliper Paint - Off the Car with G2 System ua-cam.com/video/9smISt6UhLI/v-deo.html
I have a video for that. Basically you need to order the new HMI unit (CUE brain) and have it programmed. Then install it. Be sure to read the description are of my video ua-cam.com/video/8YS7rdLZZvk/v-deo.htmlsi=-7qdZMFVdNil7Z6E
Is it a 3rd gen CTS? You definitely can get the mirror from Alpha mods and the cluster can be bought and will need programming. Check www.whiteautoandmedia.com/
You didn't list the V recaro seats. I'd like to get a set out of a wrecked V. They were available in the later V sports as an option. Those seats are so much better than the stock especially if you track.
James Jones it’s already LED. except the visor mirror lights but I decided against it as I thought they might be too bright. Colors inside would be cool!
Just heard from someone that the interior ambient lighting is probably not upgradable due to being proprietary built in LEDS or something. But I saw something on eBay.... like thin rope lighting you can wedge into your trim. Not sure how I felt about it.
Hi, I have a 14 Cadillac xts platinum v I have the led illuminated door handles that only light uo when you unlock the car or lights are on twilight sentinal. Is there any way these outside door lights be Illuminated at all times when the headlights are on at night. I went to cadillac dealerships and they do not know how to do this since its controlled by a module Or if you know a trusted repair shop in Houston texas Thank you for your help Mark
There is no procedure or official modification to do this. As of now, I don't know anyone that has done it but it would require the appropriate electrical knowledge to rewire the power appropriately. Sorry, a lot of people are looking to do this but there's no easy solution as of yet.
do you think it would be possible to swap paddle shifters onto a non-paddle shifter 2015 ats? i dont like having the manual mode controls on the shifter itself. paddle shifters feel a lot better to me.
I don’t know the answer to that. I guess that all depends if the wiring is integrated. If it were you could just get a new wheel with shifters. I’m sure this has to have been tested before

You probably already have 2.0 if you have a 2014 or newer 3rd generation CTS. 2.5 is where Carplay/Android auto are and it is faster. I have a video for that, just check my channel for it under CTS playlist.
The LCD DISPLAY has to be the best upgrade for anyone like me with an analog cluster.

This going to have me switch from my 08 STS to a CTS
Your vids should be sponsored by Cadillac, they're that good!
Very nice of you to say! Always trying to improve though!
Yes, Cadillac should be using the full digital display in everything; it is that much better.
Damn I like my CT6 more now… I love the longer look
I got a 2016 and im glad to know i can change some stuff
I feel like that is where I liv- 😳 WHAT A TWIST
Great video… I know I’m late to the party & all, but would you happen to know if that LCD cluster would fit a ‘13 ATS?
I’ve only seen conversions on the V. Join THE ATS-V FB groups. It’s expensive but the package is a game changer
@@JetFuelOnly thanks, will do & keep up the good work 🤙🏽
I REALLLLLY like the way you have your gauges set up, I definitely will be making some mods to my CTS
Great video! This is going to be a nice part series
Can you do an install on the lcd screen gauge
For the gauge cluster, I won’t be doing that install any time soon but @prviewsvlogs did one
@@JetFuelOnly ok thanks man
What's the Best caliper paint, I've got a 2018 Cadillac ATS Premium Luxury 3.6L AWD I love it
G2 is your best bet if you don’t powder coat. But powder coat is how I would go next time.
I have a video on G2 paint. I suggest getting better brushes though.

ua-cam.com/video/8YS7rdLZZvk/v-deo.htmlsi=-7qdZMFVdNil7Z6E
U should make an updated version of this !
Hey man; great vids; love it!
I love my cts: base model 😅 and I wonder can i get cluster and rear view digital mirror
Is it a 3rd gen CTS? You definitely can get the mirror from Alpha mods and the cluster can be bought and will need programming. Check www.whiteautoandmedia.com/
@@JetFuelOnly thank you!
Is it a program to add to watch videos while in drive?
That is possible with the CUE HMI upgrade or certain USB dongles
Another professional video. Great job Daniel.
Where is the link for the CTS digital gauge cluster replacement please
Connect with Blac Lacquer on the VSport groups or the option is whiteautoandmedia.com. Expect about $1000 for cluster plus programming.
You didn't list the V recaro seats. I'd like to get a set out of a wrecked V. They were available in the later V sports as an option. Those seats are so much better than the stock especially if you track.
JOHNWAYNE1920 good call man! Damn they can be pricey but they look nice. No more ventilated seat though. (Not that it works great)
Have you thought about trying to add the new ct5 "rearview mirror camera" to the cts? Or heard of anyone doing this?
Ever thought about upgrading the ambient lighting ??

How do you get the que 2.5 upgrade? Just go into the dealer or something or do you have to replace the whole screen

How to add a shock sensor or tilt sensor to cts factory alarm?
A lot of manufacturer alarm systems are hard to integrate to fro what I hear. You almost always end up having to do aftermarket.
Source for lcd gauge cluster???
Talk to Blac Lacquer on FB groups or contact www.whiteautomedia.com
Love the videos
Great video.
Would these work in the cats sport wagon of the same year?
There was no wagon of this generation. Yes Gen 2 and gen 3 Were both made in 2014 But their NAV systems are completely different
do these modifications work with 4th gens
Likely not as pretty much everything changed.
Can you post part numbers for these, like the alcantera steering wheel?
Sorry I’m late to reply. 404parts.com has them on the site. Great competitive pricing and special deal on shifter combo.
Hey bro how can I get ahold of that cluster? Please get back to me
Can I put in the update screen in a 2012 CTS coupe? Thanks.
Don’t think so.
Really nice! But by any chance does anyone know the CTS groups name on Facebook?
Check the description for links.
You need to post the Gen1 cts-v mods
Can you change the dash on a ats v to a digital one?
Yes. Contact www.whiteautoandmedia.com/
You will lose the warning lights on the sides like the check engine light etc.
How do i get the upgraded lcd cluster

Does it work for 2013
The mods in this video are for 2014. (Gen 3) CTS.

Where can I get things for my XTS?
Like what? Many items are compatible with other Cadillacs?

I thought I was the only one bothered by that seat belt rattle. I just had the dealer replace the B pillar at the end of my warranty
man the cue 2.5 upgrade a little too expensive :(
It's like. I might as well get a 2016 or better. I was looking at some 14 to 15 models. I'm like naw. I want the latest stuff. I guess I'll get newer.
Yeah I would go 2016+ for sure. 2017 has CUE 3.0 I think
