here are the pics I promised. If you can see, I installed the ballast's in the empty small square area located in the picture. They fit with room to spare!

Just finished installing a new set of Slim Digital HID's in my Low Beams. I'm going to take pictures tomorrow and post them, I found a PERFECT place to mount my ballast's. I had to get a new set after my first set, which lasted 2+ years, crapped out on me! I had the old, first generation bulky ballast's and decided to try out the new slim digital ballast kit that I got on ebay. They look great, here is the link for the kit if anyone is interested. Slim digital HID kit Like I said before, I'll get pics posted ASAP and I'll let you guys know if this set gives out prematurely or not...

That is great man! You should have seen if your luck continued and played the lottery... lol

That was pretty tight! Nice find!

Dude that is sick! Pretty wild! How much did all that set you back?

I totally think that this site is the caca... So I was wondering if anyone ever thought of making this site an app? I'm taking a programing class but I'm no where close to being able to create an app, otherwise I would myself! Just putting it out there for others to state their opinion on this matter, who know's maybe someone can and will make this site an app...?

Hey man I have an uncle who works at Autozone and a cousin who works at O'reilly (his son) they argue about who's the better franchise, makes me laugh. So they hook me up with part pricing! If one doesnt have the part in stock the other one prides that they have it in their store! lol They give me the same pricing they get after their employee discount. As for sharing my experiences, well if I have the time I'll post things up. I do work, go to college, and have a newborn baby not to mention a wife...

Welcome, I own an '04 SSS in Arrival blue and love that truck!

Hey man I had a few of those same codes(MAF & 1 HO2 codes). It turned out that my Volant air filter & MAF sensor were dirty. I cleaned the Air filter with the Volant cleaning kit, the MAF sensor with MAF cleaner (you can find at O'reilly's or Autozone, just becareful NOT to get the resistors or other circuitry too soaked) That cleared all of my codes including my HO2 code. Overall, I'm glad I asked for help on a post here on SIlveradoSS.com cause it saved me money. I was gonna buy a new OEM MAF (89.99) and new O2 sensors (39.99ea). Oh and I only have 2 O2 sensors which my truck is now tuned to recognize. I have a Wheatley tune... Hope this helps and resolves your problem!

Man I also need tires, havent heard of those before but now I'm seriously considering those! Sorry I'm not helping... I was looking into: General Tires and these Goodyear tires.

Definitely a jaw dropper! I'm trying to convince the wife to buy a TBSS as the "Family" SUV, but she's favoring the new Yukon Denali....

Nice Kill!

Happy birthday folk's!

I agree, if you aren't upsizing to at least a 3" setup, just get a muffler... I Have Pacesetter LT's, no Cat's, and a Borla XR-1 muffler with 3.5" tubing throughout and boy I love it!!! Just my 2 cents...

Congrats! Being a dad is AMAZING. My wife and I have an 8 month little girl. Congrats!

I think that Chevy only offered the AWD for 2003 & 2004 models, 2005 & 2006 where rear-wheel drive. I might be wrong for the 2005 model, I think you still had the chance for that option that year but I'm not 100% sure. Hope that helps and good luck on getting one soon! I cant say I'll ever get rid of mine, I'm getting buried in my 04 SSS...lol

No quite, I have a few bolt-ons and a wheatley tune. Now that I think about it the deuche had SRT-8 badges on it... probably wasnt a srt to begin with!!..?

So I'm driving in town in 5 o' clock traffic and a dumb red neon Srt-8 pulls up next to me and rev's his engine. Of course he's jammin' techno, is a young buck, and has all kinds of unnecessary stickers and large gauges all over the car. He had, what looked like, 13 inch tires up front and 16 inch in the rear. I could hear a turbo spool when he rev'd his engine at me, but I thought F*$# it! Well I took him on and beat him all 3 times. Needless to say, I beat him with ease; like at the least 5 car lanes. The first time was from a dead stop, second from 20-25 roll, and finally from 35 mph to about 80. He not once caught me or was even close. I'm in my late 20's so my adrenaline was running after the entire thing! Haven't had that much fun since I was on active duty USMC in Iraq! Cant say I do that too often, but it was worth it! Thought I'd share with you guys!

Wow! The sad part is that some dumb f* probably already bought it! The only decent thing about that video was that chick's ass... lol

So I got a check engine light last weekend and headed to autozone to get the code reout, I dont remember the code # but it read that it had a problem communicating with my MAF sensor. I called a buddy who works at a chevy dealer and he told me to try and clean the sensor before I spend the cash on a new one and that it might do the trick. I'm writing this post to ask anyone who has had this problem or knows of this problem to give me advice as to how to clean the sensor or remedy this issue. Thanks

Nice! Thanks man!

To any memeber who has any input from experience or hear say, whats the difference between HID ballast for Hi/Lo beam bulbs? I mean can I use the same ballast, I know that the High bulbs are 9005 and the lo bulbs are 9006, but is there a difference other than that when dealing with HID's? I was looking at buying 2 sets of the slim digital 35W HID kits, one for the highs and one for the low beams, but ive heard that I might need bi-xenon ballast for the high's?????? Any input is appreciated! Thanks

Welcome! Wish your brother luck on his search for a Silverado!

Hey guys, just wondering if I should spend twice as much as I would on a new OEM replacement MAF sensor on a Granatelli one? Any input, my check engine light came on and after investigating the code I found out that I need a new one... Any feed back is appreciated! Let me know what ya'll have.
