Carpet Cleaning and How to Console Swap

Thank you. A little ocd here

[@charlesdowling8115]

Agree 100%

[@IMC41]

One of the best GM DIY channels out there - really appreciate your work my friend! Did the same swap on my RCSB several years ago but included the matching AC/heat vents, the side panels (that you mentioned) and swapped out the handle above the glove box with a leather one. Found a Birchwood dash bezel, and then one of the long overhead consoles to match! All for under $200. Completely transformed the interior. Again, great work and super nice truck!!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Sounds like a nice set up and a great price.

[@shaneeddings883]

Wire in an inverter, and put a 110 outlet in the rear of the console. Add USB ports as well.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Now that's an idea.

That will look good

[@BenjaminMartinez-nj7bz]

I had the same dark interior. I swapped to light gray electric leather seats, bottom dash, kick panels and electric door panels. Looks great. Panels are light gray with light tan arm rest. Looking at doing the arm rest charcoal. Keep up the good work. Headliner was already light gray match’s perfect.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Sounds like a nice setup.

[@jamesedward5355]

Two-tone looks good. I did my swap a couple months ago and scored a complete dark charcoal console at a pick n pull style salvage yard for $16. Its amazing how heavy they are with sub, amp and radio controls.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. They are heavy with all that.

[@phillipblades6784]

Great video! I have a base model 2005 Silverado single cab that was originally my grandfather’s last farm truck. I’m slowly making it mine, one option at a time. I’m hoping to do the full console conversion next. I’m lucky enough that my nephew has a 2005 Silverado extended cab with one and he may want the fold down center seat that I’ve already bought. It’s going to be difficult to wait for Spring of 2024 to get the console, or maybe not. I’m not positive, but I think the interiors of our trucks are even the same colors. I hope so, because if not, he might be turned off of the plan. My truck also has the manual locks and roll up windows. That’s okay with me. I can still someday get the door panels covered with vinyl or leather for a different look. I also have the black vinyl floor in my truck, but it’s in practically perfect condition and the carpet isn’t worth the hassle of getting it. All I’ve changed so far in the interior is getting the white-faced SS gauge cluster with blue LED backlighting. I love it. Videos like this one are very educational and helpful for me. It’s just crazy how easy it looks to do. If it were up to me, we would get this done on a nice day soon. But Nephew is the one who decides when, or if. You showed me how, said which size tool to use, where the bolts or nuts or clasps are, and went through the process with great advice and instructions. Thanks again.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you for the comments. Good luck on yours

On these base model trucks I always add the black plastic cover under the passenger side of the dash, cleans up the look a lot. Although this is a dumb time to mention this as you would have to take the console back out to install it.

I noticed it didn't have one

[@daviddobiesz]

I swapped the escalade woodgrain into my 04 denali xl that had the silver graphite in it. Door panels, dash pad, center console pieces with clock and flip out ash tray, woodgrain steering wheel (spray dyed the air bag), gauge cluster and dash bezel. Also got the 07 caddy 22's and some gmc caps for them. Still have to install the stainless roof rack. I like the little touches of the escalade. But I dont want drive one. Plus the dished pistons on this U vin 6.0 make great compression with a 799 head swap.

a good upholstery shop can fill those holes in the knee bolster and redye the plastic. Also, GM sells the push pin fasteners that you need for the front of your console where those holes are in the correct color.

[@randallhahn2137]

So I bought a console at the junk yard to swap for my jump seat. I have a 2002 Silverado 2 door. My dash set-up was exactly like yours, 3 lighters and an ashtray. The jump seat came out exactly the same. But my new console is different from yours. Mine is a 2 piece. The front section bolts directly to the dash after I remove the plastic dash part under the lighters. 2 tabs up top, 2 screws in the bottom. Did not have to remove glove box or piece under steering wheel. BUT the back part of the console does not sit on a frame like the original jump seat or the console you have. It bolts to the floor with 4 bolts. I have not put that in yet because I want to see if the floor has the bolt holes. I can always drill some but want to check first. I guess there are two types of console?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yes I did the 03 up. You bought the 99-02

[@randallhahn2137]

@@TWAMotorsports LOL that would explain it. Strange though that my jump seat had the frame that bolts under the seats but the console doesn't.

I have an 02 avalanche with the same interior. My advice is buy the bezel kit for a 2din. It snaps right up to your truck, or go with a 1din with a motorized screen. I don't like my 2din bezel but it could just be mine.

[@TWAMotorsports]

What bezel do you have?

[@wolfhound1a]

Its a installation kit. Its a full bezel. You can find them on ebay. Its made for the 2002 and older GM's. Way better then hacking up your dash.

Nice job! I have a 2000 gmc sierra. Could I use the glovebox and knee panel that’s in the truck now? Seems like I can cut out the parts that doesn’t fit. I know it’s been awhile since this video but, I really want to know. Thanks!

[@j-rdz2083]

Looks good boss man, I did the exact same thing to mine. Got rid of the jump seat, but I dyed all panels and console to match the rest of the interior...the color of your interior is sem 17223 very dark Pewter look into it.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Someone said 17113 was the color

[@j-rdz2083]

I tried 17113 Graphite it’s way to light, even tho the cap colors looks just like the interior color but the spray/liquid is not a perfect match. I looked up my rpo code interior color In the glove box right above or next to the paint code ,cross Referenced it and it came up as very dark pewter..

[@05blkrado]

Damn $100!!! That’s a steal, here in St. Louis people want $250 just for the console. I have the same color interior ( the grey) and the 2 time looks great!! I may do the same. I’m at the salvage yard a lot, if you need anything let me know

[@donaldgavigan9376]

I like it. But I think the gray triangle pieces really make the new lower pop. I did around my suburban bezel with metallic gray. Where the black goes around the radio and heat controls then around gauges. I think it would really help with yours. Maybe the seats the other way around. With the lighter colors outside. Like the CTS seats. Just something to think about. But then one up the CTS with the face of the head rest light the sides and back dark. Maybe embroidery in a SS logo into the head rest.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yeah I have the triangle parts now. I will do an update video soon.
