Liking the truck so far! Great job. What was the cost to upgrade to High Country Digital Cluster?

Thanks!

 

Bought and programmed through https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com.  It was $675.

Yea your doing an awesome job all the way around. And sinking some serious money into her as well.   

 

How long was the gloss window trim installation and how much did the dealer charge for the trim parts?  It annoys me how mine is rough plastic look. 

Thanks and don't remind me about the $$$

 

The installation took a day.  The inner door had to be removed in order access some of the parts.  Keep in mind that this isn't just the pillars.  It is every part that has contact with the window in gloss black.   If I recall it was about $700 for the parts, a few hundred for the install and a little over a hundred for the PPF to protect them from micro scratches.

Can you do a write up on this? Definitely liking it and wondering how hard the swap was.

I purchased the preprogrammed unit from https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com and I had my local mod shop do the install.  It took a few hours.

Any recommendations on a ceramic coating and PPF installer in SA area? I’m looking to get my whole truck done.

Highly recommend Concours Auto Salon:  https://www.concoursautosalon.com, https://www.facebook.com/concoursautosalon/

 

They've done extensive work on my BMW X5M and Silverado.  Both full Ceramic Coating and PPF.

 

Only ceramic coating I use is Ceramic Pro:  https://ceramicpro.com.  I have the gold package with four coatings.  It is warranted for the life of the vehicle as long as you bring it in annually for a check up.  I've always used Suntek PPF https://www.suntekfilms.com but Xpel is also a quality films.

Nice build. I thought of doing the cluster upgrade as well. Other than a bigger screen and a nicer presentation, does it give more information that the regular analog cluster?
