The lighting upgrades make that obs chevy look newer! Such an easy upgrade to breathe new life in to old, but reliable, vehicles. Great work and namaste, Jason

[@AutoEdits]

The Tahoe is becoming a very civilized commuter... LOL!

[@bradc5433]

Have these bulbs caused any interference with your radio reception or flicker ?

[@baldeaglegarage]

Great Video! I like the magnet trick, definitely going to use that one!

[@AutoEdits]

Glad you liked it!

[@rockymtnredneck4888]

Went Auxbeam on all my trucks years ago. They’ve been great! Oh, absolutely go for the 4 light relay kit. I have done them on all three OBSs I’ve owned. Driving canyons, I’ve always wanted all the lights I can get.

[@AutoEdits]

Having previously owned a 93 suburban, I highly recommend installing that painless kit for the headlights! TOTALLY worth it! You won't regret it!

[@AutoEdits]

Thanks for the tip!

[@jimcabezola3051]

The bewildering choices we have in automotive lighting nowadays staggers me. We're no longer confined to sealed-beam non-halogen lights as we were between about 1935 and 1975. The LED lights are my favourite for their decreased draw on the alternator. Mahalo for the tutorial!

[@AutoEdits]

That is a legit observation!

[@nomadicjoe6124]

Good Vid, when you put the screws back in the Driver side tail lamp... I was yelling "NO WAY" how neither dropped off your screw driver. then you honestly showed how you lost one on the other side. he is mortal... Love these trucks but i always drop'em. Those turns are dope, think i may need to snag those. thanks again man.

Thank you Jason! Did my lights a while ago and about to install my painless harness (working on other electrical issues before adding the headlights to the mix) but I have hated my turn signals as they needed the relays replaced. Wasn't something that was really on my radar but seeing this video and my own progress with electrical made me just order these today.

[@AutoEdits]

Let me know how it goes!

[@nuclearknight8543]

This is why I love your videos. Dude out of 20 years of working on these trucks. I never knew you could take the headlights out like that. Always thought you had to remove the grill.

So nice of you. Thanks

[@FYRARMS]

Recently purchased a CLEAN one-owner '95 Tahoe 2-door 4x4 in beautiful Emerald Green from the original buyer! First thing I did was purchase all-new exterior lenses and replacement LED bulbs. After wasting money on a couple relays other KZbinrs claimed would work to fix hyperflashing, I stumbled across your video. Swapping both the flasher and hazard relays to the ones you recommended was THE only fix. Literally solved all my issues. Thank you for the great videos, and keep up the Tahoe content! By the way, already ordered the Belltech shocks and I am cranking the OEM front keys just 1.5". Thanks for saving me money! 😁

[@AutoEdits]

Sounds like a nice rig you have there. Thanks!

Great upgrades to any older vehicle, i used the Painless wiring harness on my 2002 1500 Silverado with great results. Ditch to ditch light spread from low beams and down road forward lighting from the high beams . It made for a great setup.

[@edwardthomson8569]

I love LED upgrade lights, it’s so much of a no brainier shops no longer need to sell halogens…? Also, I would definitely crack on with the relay that keeps all four main headlights on full beam, more OE light, more safety at night! Keep up the good work dude, loving watching the trucks grow and develop!

[@AutoEdits]

Thanks so much!

[@brainstormer9]

There's a clear glass headlight housing available that really helps light output as well. Made a huge difference!

[@qasimalsaidi]

You should've done a before and after night drive comparison. Thank u Jason.

[@AutoEdits]

It's way better.

[@SQLRYAN]

Hi Jason, another cool video. I did LED swap on my Tahoe a couple of years ago and they're fantastic. Around same time, found a glass head lamp housing on Amazon and have no worries about lens getting hazy and yellowing. You gotta install that 4 lamp relay for the head lights. Well worth the time.

[@AutoEdits]

Thanks for the info!

[@julianmdeleon323]

How's the beam pattern with the new LED's in the old housings? I've always read that LED's into halogen housings produce blinding beam patterns. Would love a follow up video showing the beams of all the upgrades. Cool video!

[@AutoEdits]

I haven't been flashed yet... but I'll do some more checking.

[@adeoliver]

I was curious about the switching leds, I did the headlights but wasnt sure if I should get the running/blinker lights as well. But after this video I will be upgrading to them for sure. Thanks for the video!!

The “famous 3057 bulbs” for the front turn signals are actually 1057/1157.

[@Harey0407]

Nice upgrade on the LED lights. On the trim/bumper paint, I actually painted the grey bumpers on my PT with the same stuff and black as well, though I did more of a process, cleaning it with dish soap to remove any wax, spraying on a coating of adhesion promoter, then putting down the bumper paint. As for how long it lasts, well I've only done it twice in about 10 years, but for sure depends on how picky you are about the color (it will fade over time, and my experience in Michigan, not California).

[@Trainreck99]

Hi. I have a 1993 Chevrolet Silverado K3500 6.5 Turbo Diesel. 4x4 regular cab. Thank you for the video. I was able to change all lightning in front of my truck to LED. I followed your video and purchased all you recommended. Everything works and looks great. Thank you. Just a quick note about my 4 way hazzard flashers. I did buy the EP28 and EP36. For some reason my 4 way flashers were at normal speed. I did not need to use the EP28 flasher relay. Perhaps this will help someone save $21 by not needing to buy. You definitely do need the EP36 turn signal flasher to stop hyperflashing. It worked well and turn blinkers operate at normal speed. So perhaps install some LEDs first and see if your 4 way hazzards flash at normal speed. Hopefully you can same some money. Also i have a question about the taillight brakelight bulbs you recommend. Are they red in color when lit? I thought a white light works better through a red lense. If you use a bulb with red light i will give it a try. Also the rear of your truck is showing amber or orange in video. Is that from the bulb or lenses? Please explain the rear lights of truck if you get a moment. You did a great job in your video. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@Itsjustm0o0]

Never knew you Could take the headlights out like that 😮

[@AutoEdits]

Yep, very easy! Glad I could help.

[@Robo-dr8tk]

Great video !!👍I recently took out my third deer with the front of mine 😖😖😖I'm gonna go ahead and replace everything, the headlight brackets also. Yours turned out great !!!👍

[@AutoEdits]

Good luck!

[@MarshallSmith27]

It needs to be said since it wasnt said in the video. You don't JUST buy 9005 and 9006 bulbs. You need 9005/HB3 and 9006/HB4 bulbs. All bulbs are not the same. Also I very much recommend the EP-36 relay. My truck started having hyper flash when the headlights were on and an occasional just fast flash when the aren't on. I cleaned all the sockets and checked the tail light boards and it was just a simple relay going bad after 30 years. I don't run LED's but the new EP-36 is much quieter and I get a more uniform blink which is a plus

[@kleimbach77]

Cool I was thinking about doing this to my 09 f150. My oem headlamps/taillights had so much chrome trim on them so I swapped those out for black euro headlights and oem SVT Raptor taillights in the back. I was on the fence about switching to LED bulbs but not anymore!

[@AutoEdits]

Good to hear... I'm happy with these so far. The ones I put in the Ram a few years ago were awful 😂

[@hondo1810]

just subscribed! I have a 95 chevy suburban so you've helped me a lot!

[@AutoEdits]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@rmeada]

Hello again. I just changed the flasher relay and they work fine. Now my issue is that when I turn my lights on… they don’t blink at all.

[@JingleBop]

Put in some of those "ballast" resisters. They flasher relay needs some resistance to work, if everything is LED it won't provide the current draw necessary to activate the flasher.

[@AutoEdits]

Make sure you put the correct relay in... it must say LED on it.

[@davidstewart6485]

Would love to see some more death valley adventures! Maybe show the damage that the floods have done to the park when it reopens.

[@AutoEdits]

[@rareearthfab5511]

Hey Jason, Install that low high beam relay so your lights are on together. You won’t be disappointed. Definitely worth the effort.

[@roderickbanks484]

Where exactly is the relay located. I got mine but don’t know where to install it

[@gamingforlife2232]

Is that why they don’t turn on at the same time?

[@aaronmartin5956]

What relay do I need to get to have the low/high beam on together?

[@andrewtrujillo6266]

I spliced my wire an added a fuse housing

[@jamesm568]

I will never understand why people use a relay when you can just use a diode at the harness which activates both relays.

[@josephbragg1162]

I could never get LED bulbs to work in the rear of my '96 Silverado so I got fed up with it after trying four different kinds of LEDs for the back brands that is. I eventually ended up ordering rear LED light fixtures from Spyder Auto and man they are super bright. I also purchased a light bar for underneath my tailgate and when I put reverse on after wiring up the reverse light it lights up at least 1 acre of my land because it is so bright. A lot of people love my tailgate stop light bar and they are amazed by how easy it was to install when I tell them. The only thing you have to do is plug it in to your towing light socket four prong but the reverse you have to hardwire into your reverse on one of your tail lights the closest one to the wires on the reverse light bar. Just a little tip for anybody that wants to use a stop light light bar underneath their tailgate. Usually the 3M tape that's on the back of that strip actually holds on very well as long as you have a couple of days to let the glue actually cure meaning you put it on and you can drive it around after installing it no problem but make sure it's not going to rain or you don't wash your vehicle for at least a couple of days to let the 3M tape bond to the truck and make sure you use some rubbing alcohol to clean the area and let it dry completely before you install the light strip so it will adhere a lot better.

[@ellioteason5155]

Love the Tahoe videos!

[@vrwired]

I put those same bulbs in and in 2 of the sockets the contacts would not reach all the way. If you pushed them in they would light up but not in the locked position. I just built up the contact patch on the bulbs with solder to make them “stick out” a bit more. Inserted, twisted and locked and they worked perfect. Simple fix.

[@AutoEdits]

Are you sure you didn't just have them in 180 out?

[@mickjager5974]

Best thing I've done on my 97 c1500 was get glass head lights. even with the standard headlight bulbs the now clear lenses make a world of difference and other than getting broken they should stay clear and not frost over like the plastic ones. I also replaced the tail lights and the new red plastic if clearer and they seem brighter do to that. I was still having issues with some of the tail lights not working even though the bulbs were good and that seemed to be more from the "circuit board", for lack of a better term, not being snapped together well. When I pushed the tan board into the black backing board all of the bulbs started working and they haven't given me any issues in about 6 months. I usually think of the heat of incandescent tail light heat causing the issue, but it maybe that the heat causes the tan board to come lose from the black backing board more than actually the sockets enlarging and the bulbs get loose.

I ended up getting new circuit boards, same thing, i snipped off the pigtail just today because the old one started to not work at all unless I put force behind it toward the circuit board. Also I already Che Jed my relays and fuses. I also have the ep29 relay under the dash for the hyper flash. The lights are atleast making a very good connection with my new pigtails, but on the driver side , the reverse light acts ass all of my back lights

[@irishuwould5185]

I wish there was a dual color 194 led bulb for the side markers. I can’t find one. Thinking about going led for my turn signals and side markers in my 94 Silverado. Just wish I could find a 194 that would be white like the turn signals and flash amber to match. But I guess amber will have to do while the lights are on. I still think it looks awesome. I’m going to replace the orange side markers with white frosted ones. Great detailed video.

[@imkwuzn]

I’m not positive but I believe amber side markers and front blinkers are required in the front of all vehicles. I’m sure someone will correct me if I’m wrong.

Just found your channel. I’m in the process of swapping out my headlights and turn signals. The switchback lights are mint in those factory housings, love them! My question for you is the light output of the 9006-05 LED bulbs. They definitely look brighter but what does the beam pattern look like? The aftermarket ones I got when I bought my truck recently are garbage with no usable light. I want to go back to OEM housing but with LED bulbs instead of the halogens.

97 Chevy OBS c1500 related I’ve been chasing around this issue with my flashing hazard lights. When I press the brake pedal with the emergency lights activated; the flashers stop blinking & stay solid with my brake lights. After I let off the pedal, they continue to flash normally. I’ve replaced my flasher switch, I’ve changed relays, cleaned fuses and grounds and also replaced my brake 6-pin switch but I can’t come up with anything. Any ideas?

[@tjbuck]

Thats just the way it is. Since there are no amber lights as the turn signals in the back, you really can't have the brake lights flash for hazards and then stay solid as brake lights.

I followed your plan on my 2001 Tahoe. Headlights are amazingly bright! All work great except the driving lights/turn signal lights are not the old style twist in bulbs, but the newer clip in style. I had to order the JDM ASTAR Extremely Bright 3030 Chipsets White/Yellow 3157 3155 3457 4157 Switchback LED Bulbs with Projector For Turn Signal Lights. They work fine except not with the small side running lights. When I remove those side light bulbs the driving/signal lights work fine. So for now, I just left the small side running light bulbs out. Any suggestions for how to make the turn signal and side running lights work together? I did upgrade the combined flasher/signal relay with EP-29L I picked up at NAPA auto parts.

[@jimstockhaus218]

I also replaced the headlight, turn signal and fog light assemblies/lenses for $85. Huge improvement along with these LED bulbs!

[@AutoEdits]

Not sure if anything changed lightwise from 95 to 2001... did you use the led in the side marker as well?

[@jimstockhaus218]

@@AutoEdits yes, I used the small auxbeam 194 led bulbs in the side markers and both sides exhibited the same issue. As soon as I took out the small side leds the signal lights worked fine. I tried putting the old incandescent bulbs in the side markers but got the same results as with the leds.

[@josephbragg1162]

I had the exact same problem with that little bitty 194 side marker light in the front with my switchback lights and tried for nearly a year to figure out how to get those lights to work with the switchback and the only thing I saw online was I had to rewire my little 194 lights and ground those separately and it seemed like such a pain in the rear that I just left the little lights out and it does not bother me because the switchbacks are so bright you will not see that little light anyways. If anything else comes up are you find a solution let me know because I am in the same boat but not much of a big deal though.

Hello again! I just switched out all my lights to LED’s and so far so good. The only thing is that they hum. Which doesn’t really bother me. Is there a quick fix? I can leave the humming if there will be no issue like catching my ride on fire or something. 😂 let me know thanks!!!

There's a fan in the LED headlights.

[@rmeada]

@@AutoEdits oh so it’s normal. Gotcha. Thank you sir.

[@psta11]

what year is your Chevy Tahoe, I have a 98’ Chevy Tahoe LT and when I search for the relays it says it’s compatible to EP29n not EP28 or 36

[@psta11]

I’m asking because I have it as a project in Mexico and don’t have immediate access to check on my own.

[@AutoEdits]

The wiring harnesses did change from 95 to 98 so you'll have to find the one right for your rig.

[@daynightcircle5954]

The way you took off the top right light with those two bolts can that work on a 98 Chevy Silverado k1500 because tired of taking off my grill ????

[@AutoEdits]

I think so... it removes the entire headlight bucket.

[@dawsonkelleyhome3035]

Bought everything, and when I turn on my running lights, they light up solad orange and dont blink when I turn on my turn signels

[@AutoEdits]

Sounds like they are in reverse polarity… make sure the deep tabs are in correctly

[@jimstockhaus218]

I had the same problem and found that when I remove the small side running light bulb that the flashers work fine.

[@lukeparker1638]

Would there be a reason my suburban does not hyper flash? All the blinkers operate at their normal speed even though they were all changed to led like you showed. Thanks

[@AutoEdits]

Your relay might be unique... just go with it LOL

[@texastoys]

Where do you install the relay to turn both headlights on at the same time for high beam? And, which bulbs did you use for low beam and high beam since your Amazon link doesn't work for either of those? Also, did you use red or white led bulbs for the rear brake and running lights? because in your video...the bulbs you used had black plastic casings...not red or white like the ones in your Amazon link. Thanks

[@AutoEdits]

Inner fender. The bulb I installed isn't available but the one linked works great in its place.

[@michaelmusgrove4563]

Your parts list Amazon link for rear turn goes to a JDM red. The video shows you installing AUXBEAM. So please help. What are they???

[@AutoEdits]

The links to the auxbeam store kept changing so I put a more reliable option there that will work great.

[@jeepinintexas6215]

Hey Jason, do you think that Duplicolor Trim & Bumper paint would work well on some factory OEM JK fender flares? Mine are faded and Aerospace 303 only keeps them looking decent for about 2 weeks here in the Texas sun.

[@rcairforceone]

Try a ceramic coating, that should last a little longer.

[@AutoEdits]

I think it would look pretty good... I'll be curious how long it lasts and will let you know how it does in the desert heat.

[@Bondovw]

Harbor freight bedliner in a can works pretty good .

[@jeepinintexas6215]

@@Bondovw yes but I don't want that bed liner texture. I just want them to look like new again.

[@MrCoffeedrinker71]

We bought some of those LED lights and the driver side lights up right but the passenger side only lights up amber what do you think the problem could be?,I looked at everything.

[@AutoEdits]

Try reinstalling the bulbs 180 degree turn

[@adam-hg4ts]

I got some turn signals LEDs for my 1989 c1500 that you got on the video, when I put them in they didn’t want to cut on lmk if anyone can help on that !

[@jettsmith6560]

Possibly and issue with polarity I would think, don’t know for sure though

[@brycegoodrich5344]

Im having a problem with my switchbacks. Both Amber and leds are on at the same time. Ive turned it 180 degrees and they do the same thing. I also have a ep29 relay underneath my dash. What could be the issue because i cant figure it out

[@AutoEdits]

Not sure, check to make sure you have the right bulbs.
