High Country Denali Cluster Dash Upgrade Install 2019 2020 2021 Silverado Sierra

[@FERNANDOMARTINEZ-nm7ss]

Thank You for sharing. I ordered the Denali cluster. Coverting my LT to Denali. So have the 22" Denali wheels, Cluster, full center concole, and hopefully converted multi flex tail gate.

[@maurice4212]

I’ve been searching and searching the web on what to do with my 22’ Silverado Custom Trail Boss. This is the information I needed. I wanted the base model with only a few of the things the higher trims have without the high end cost. Only thing I don’t think I’ll be able to do is add the sunroof but you sir have given me hope and I thank you. SUBSCRIBED!

[@acmedata]

Thank you for this. I lost a local park pass sticker between the instrument gage clear plastic bezel and the trim in front of it. I had no way to fish it out ... until this video! You saved me $40 for a new sticker!

Just ordered mine today can’t wait I’m excited for it to get here and have this finally in my fully loaded slt which was what the guy from the dealer told me was a Denali without the Denali emblems which now I know he held out a bit more info but other than that my truck still has more than enough options can’t complain love my truck does more than what I ever believed I needed!!!

Thanks for the awesome video. Just did the upgrade myself this morning. I'm now debating the GPS one to get the speed limit piece to function correctly.

[@toddprater14]

17:28. Your gage just changes from battery to trans temp when you switch in tow haul mode….My 2015 Sierra Denali when you hit that on gear shifter lever button,the battery gage runs away to the right (like a pac man ghost ) and the trans temp gage comes in from the right 😊

[@SteveEwing-i4j]

For those of you wanting to do this upgrade like I was planning to do, be aware that the needed report to have the engine hours programmed is proving to be difficult to obtain. Out of 5 dealerships I have called, 3 of them had no clue regarding the GDS2 software report and 2 stated that they can obtain the hours but cannot provide a physical report that WAMS requires. After emailing with WAMS, I was told that GM requires WAMS to have this report for them to program the hours. Strange that GM requires this but out of 5 dealerships, I am unable to obtain this report. WAMS stated that in the 10 years they have been doing this, they have never heard of a dealership refusing to give a report. I guess I am just SOL!!

[@4-6-3DP]

Love love love! This video. Congrats on the new cluster. The only thing I would have done differently than you would be to test that it works prior to putting all that trim back on ( maybe you did this off camera). I have a 2020 Chevy High Country with this display, and I can see why you wanted an upgrade. If you ever get a chance to add the HUD, do it! Game changer for me My factory unit does not have the 0-60 option, which I would love to have. Any ideas on how to add it?

[@TruckOwnership101]

I believe WAMS has an an option where you send yours in to be “unlocked”

[@tymurray2792]

I know the 2019-21 interiors needed an update like they did with the exterior, which is the best design out there. But you can make the interior your own and still make nice, just be creative.

I was planning on getting an Ram, even thought about getting an Ford because GMC cluster was dated. After seeing this, ill stick with Chevy🔥Thanks!

[@charliemarcus2439]

Glad you got a new hud you wanted! Not sure that I’d prefer that over my analog gauges though. Not seeing much of a real difference. Plus I’m not sure if I could find a upgraded cluster that doesn’t say auto start stop my truck doesn’t have it as I didn’t want it and my factory gauges don’t say auto start stop anywhere not sure I’d want to see it on the upgraded unit.

[@TruckOwnership101]

It is pretty subtle, but I love the speed limit gauge in the top left and how the battery gauge changes to transmission temp when I’m in tow haul mode. You need factory navigation for that speed limit sign though. Which came with my radio upgrade mod from my earlier video. If they figure out how to get the HUD added to this, that would really be cool.

[@charliemarcus2439]

Can you let me know if the speed limit sign that shows on the screen works ? Does it let you know what's the speed limit on the road on the cluster?

[@rb8058]

Always appreciate your take on why you do the upgrades you do. For those of us with an LTZ trim, is there any benefit to doing this upgrade? I don’t see much improvement beyond the enlarged digital screen. I like how the battery gauge changes to tranny temp when towing, but i don’t HAVE to have that.

[@SirAJentz]

Did your cluster come programmed, and there is another connector on the backside of your new cluster? What is that connector for?

You send them your vin so it comes programmed for your specific truck. The other connectors are for a “Heads up Display” and for the actual programming of it. Not aware of an aftermarket HUD mod yet

[@TruckOwnership101]

It’s plug and play once it arrives. There is an extra programing option you can pay for that gets you a few extra screens like 0-60, G-force, and lots of detailed fluid pressure and temperatures.

[@blakegarrett4100]

I noticed at the beginning of the video you had 250 mile range on fuel and then when you installed the new cluster it was showing 480 miles I'm assuming it was saying that because it didn't have an accurate reading on your normal mpg consumption. If you could clarify that would be great.
