  1. This is how it started out when my cluster was going out. I'm lucky to still have low enough miles for them to have done it under warranty.

     

    If Im right about this, next you will see problems with the tach, speedo, or trans temp gauge. Once my cluster was replaced my correct hours were back.

     

    This is something we should not have to deal with.

     

    Good luck anyway.

  2. And If I did have to replace them every two years or so I wouldn't mind doing that-any more frequent and I would have to try something else.

     

    I also like the fact that the Recon has a slot for the side marker bulb that lights up to look like neon. An added plus I didnt expect.

  3. I did the rears. Love the Recon tails. Brightest LED's I have ever seen. I decided not to do the front lights at all.

     

    IMO, the reason the Recons light up different segments for brake/tail functions is simply because the suckers would burn your eyeballs out if they all lit up.

     

    If they go out I will send em back and get more. Recon _says_ their LEDs are the brightest (definitely believe that) and that theirs last longer (dont know about that).

     

    I definitely like the choices I made. Thanks for the good advice.

  4. My kid turns 16 this year, and he's begging me to either give him mine (NOT going to happen) or to get him one of his own (we will see). I've always said the SS is not appropriate for kids, but my kid is different from most. He has a level of respect and care for the SS that parallels my own. As I said in another post, I can drive almost anything I want, but the SS is what I want to drive.

  5. I'm going to do exterior LED's shortly. I wish someone would put LED's in the stock 03-07 housings.

     

    Here's what I want to do. If anyone has experience with these and did not like them let me know before I make a mistake. I thought long and hard about smoked lights and decided to go with a close to stock look.

    I chose the Anzo 3rd brake light, if only because it got good reviews and has more LED's in the red segments than the others I have found:

    Thanks.

  7. To each, his/her own I always say. It doesn't matter what people say about my almost bone stock truck.

    I sold cars for 11 years, and I could drive anything I want to. But no other vehicle makes me as happy as my SS.

     

    Long story short, my truck is me, and I am my truck, if that makes any sense.
