  1. Got my plate in the mail today. Looks good to finally have my name on something official
  2. That SHO looks like the business... Congrats.
  3. Not sure if it applies where you are, but my local U-pull it gave me all of them for free with a purchase.
  4. Man, I wish mine was "getting old" I guess mine is ancient. 112,000
  5. Any update on this? I too have the 3 Pin for the turn signal socket. If you jump the brown from brake to the black middle of the turn signal, it pops the fuse so, definitely not the same.
  6. I have an update for the DRL on with Parking Lamps. It is pictured incorrectly. It is shown as Pin 85 Park LP to Pin 85 DRL. It should be Pin 86 Park LP to Pin 85 DRL. I verified this on my truck because 85-85 did not work and I was about to pull all my hair out. So after much grunting and checks with the handy-dandy multimeter, I found Pin 86 Park LP to be the pin needed. Hooked it up this way and it works flawlessly. Here's the updated drawing...
  7. Nice work on the pictures. Looks great.
  8. Welcome to the site! Can't wait to see the progress. Don't forget to start a build thread so we can follow along...
  9. Awesome! Welcome to the site. Can't wait to see some pics.
  10. Welcome to the site! Can't wait to see your progress.
  11. Late, but Merry Christmas everyone!!!
  12. Yea, I got medically discharged and became a contractor for about 3 years. Now I'm training to be a mechanic for Honda. That sucks. I used to go to a lot of Honda meets when I had my old hatch. If there's anything going on though, I'd love to go (If family/kids can go of course) as long as I'm not working... Thanks!
  13. I'm actually just moving back from Abu Dhabi, so not recently. I used to frequent Kinston. I definitely want to go to a SSS meet if there are any in NC.
  14. Greenville. I see you're in the nam. I used to live there when I was stationed at Bragg. Good times.
  15. That looks pretty nice also.
  16. Cool, thanks for the info Michael
  17. Very nice. I wanted a red one, but couldn't find one in my area/price range.
  18. Awesome. Thanks for the info. Thanks!
  19. Ok, just went out and looked. I'll be damned. The emblems sure are on upside down. Gotta get that squared away quickly. Don't wanna look like a tool. If I want the original replacement, am I stuck with dealer prices or where do you guys recommend? I would just remove them and get new double sided tape, but I think they won't be as flush as stock. Thoughts, objections, opinions?
  20. Thanks! Yea, I'm diggin the wheels. I just painted/cleared the grille to black. I definetly want to get the front end back to stock like you said. Working one step at the time. So if I were to go to an 06 front end, what all is necessary? I like the look of those, but it would be lower on my list. Yea, it would seem the whole truck has been pieced back together. However, it runs really strong and shifts like butter. I changed all the fluids, filters, and pretty much every other normal wear part 2 days after I got it to ensure it was ready to be a reliable DD. And I couldn't agree more, first thing I noticed was the grille. I want to stay true to the SS form and not stray too far. Thanks! Holy Crap, I didn't even notice that. So if I'm right, the door emblems are on upside down? I'll get some better pics to verify. I thought that it went on the left, but I wasn't sure. I don't drive with a tailgate on unless I'm carrying something so only a small infraction on my part, but I will definetly get it moved to the proper location. Gotta respect the SS. No offense taken. I'm glad to be part of a group that cares about it's vehicles. I want to get it back to that off the lot look as you mentioned. When I have time in the coming week, I will take/post some more detailed pics so you guys can help critique and help me get it back to "stock". Once, again thank you all for your replies and advice! I look forward to bringing this SS back to it's former glory and maybe add a little more in the process.
  21. Purchased my SSS on December 1, 2014. This is my build thread. Thanks for viewing... Updated December 17, 2014 As purchased... K&N FIPK intake True dual exhaust with Flowmaster 40s 24" CABO wheels Clarion head unit Alpine Type-R door speakers The first thing that had to go were those hideous wheels. I sourced some 2015 LTZ wheels and put them on before signing the paperwork for the truck! Also pictured, FM antenna deleted... Next, I replaced the tired head unit with a new JVC and the rear door speakers with some Pioneer 3-ways... Out with the old flip up... In with the new double din JVC... <Add new JVC/Pioneer pictures later> Next, the cheap headlight bulbs were replaced with Silverstar Ultra low/high along with the 'Lows on High diode mod' I also replaced the DRL bulbs with amber colored bulbs and did the DRL on Park mod... Mod can be found here: http://www.silveradoss.com/forums/topic/83673-different-light-options-4-high-6-high-etc/ Lastly, I painted the chrome portion of the grille back to black to retain the factory look. I also added a knock off camaro ss emblem. This will be a temporary hold until my local u-pull it has an 06-07 I can pillage for the new front end... MAJOR UPDATE: I removed the upside down SS emblems!! Don't have the $120+ to spend on SS emblems right now, so I got some die-cut decals until I have the extra cash... Coming up... 4 taillight mod LED bulb replacement Custom hitch cover Corvette Brakes Texas Speed 228R Camshaft Headers
