Swap 2014 SLE Headlights for SLT w/ LEDs?


Recommended Posts

I did the swap today using the harness from gen5diy. When I turn the truck on all the lights are on. The only way to make it so that the bottom leds are the DRL is to use the manual light switch. Did I do something wrong? My truck has not had the headlight update. Can someone give me a complete write up on how they installed the harness and how it connects to the lights. I just wanna know if I did something wrong.

The factory harness plugs into the Gen5 harness, then the Gen5 harness to the headlight. Are you trying this in the daylight or in a garage/shop? Sounds like you're not in enough daylight and the sensor on the dash is turning on the lights. When all the lights are on like you say, turning the headlight switch backwards will turn off the lights and DRL's will come on. Did you hook up the 12V power wire to the fuse box?

HAHA okay they work. I was testing them with the sunshade still up in my windshield since I live in hot as hell Texas. As soon as I read your post I went and tested them again with the sunshade down and they work. I feel stupid :lol:

 

Thanks mafd2

Here is an awesome new set of GM Sierra SLT LED DRL conversion headlights that will work on SLT's or SLE's without using the special 3 relay headlight harness that also requires an additional 12V source to the fuse box. Even getting SLT lights for your SLE and using the special harness, you will still only have bottom DRL's during the day and top/bottom LED's on low power at night. This new conversion set up eliminates that. These lights have high quality switchback LED's from Diode Dynamics that carry a 3 year warranty. Top and bottom LED's are a bright white and stay on high power which are powered by a 12V source. All you need is a micro fuse tap in the fuse box to supply the voltage to the LED's (see picture) or a 12V source of your choice. Many Sierra owners want the LED's in their stock headlights to stay on full power and not go to low power at night but there was no way of doing it. These also have switchbacks LED's. The clear LED's go off and the ambers come on when the turn signals are used. No additional wiring or harness is needed for this function. It is all professionally pre-wired plug and play for SLT's or SLE's. These also have clear corner lenses installed with amber bulbs. Also installed and included are 5300K super white German halogen bulbs to close match the DRL's.

 

For those SLT owners who want their DRL's as top and bottom instead of just bottom and to stay on bright even with the headlights on or SLE owners who want headlights with DRL's and the same functions mentioned, here they are. Price is $1500 + $25 shipping which is very fair considering the price of the headlights, LED boards, clear corners, new 9012 bulbs and labor.

 

We have done 2 sets of these. One with clear corners (as pictured) and one with the stock ambers for those who prefer the amber look corners. Here is a video link demonstration of the lights. PM me with any questions and thanks for looking.

So I bought a pair of headlights off a 2015 Denali manufacturing date 7/25/2015 but the part numbers are #23268190 for left and #23268191. Does anyone know what the difference in these headlights are before I take everything apart and buy the hardness???? The number doesn't even come up as a part number anywhere I looked ...help!!??

You must mean mfg. date of 7/25/15 and not 16.

The part numbers should be 23130715 and 23130716. Not sure of those numbers as SLT and Denali headlights are the same. Never heard of those part numbers. Post some pics.

Yes that's correct with the part numbers jays why I am asking the question .... I looked these numbers up and they show to be non existent where I looked so I was wondering if they changed part number in the newer manufactured headlight. Can't post pics from mobile sorry...

Any help would be appreciated , LEDs are there and they seem to fit as well.
