The HEADLIGHT MOD You Never Knew You NEEDED!

[@ShadeTreeMechanix]

Glad to see the Tahoe back. This tahoe is actually the main reason I just bought my 03 Tahoe.

[@91sonomast1]

I have an '03 Tahoe, 2wd, with the tow package which includes the dual piston calipers in the rear. I love it. I think it's about to get a 6.0 swap. It doesn't tow as well as I'd like. The 190k mile 5.3 is starting to show its age.

[@ShadeTreeMechanix]

@@91sonomast1 I just plan to pull my little foxbody to the track, so hopefully it does half way decent.

[@Des420]

Inspect the brake lines for rust and corrosion please.

[@ShadeTreeMechanix]

@@Des420 this thing is probably the cleanest tahoe on the market in my area. I'm planning to do a walk around video this weekend.

[@Des420]

@@ShadeTreeMechanix That's awesome. Glad you got a good one. It's one of the few things that are a real problem on them and it's not easy or cheap to fix.

[@jberkhimer]

Add a ground from the LOW BEAM headlight harness to chassis and the low beams and high beams will stay on when high beams are on. The low beam ground is cut when the high beam are turned on, adding the extra ground allows them to stay on.

[@Countryboyems11]

Or you could just get a fleece chip from amazon and avoid any wire splicing what so ever.

[@jberkhimer]

@@Countryboyems11 You're absolutely right. I'm just offering another option.

[@idletime]

Kool, I'll definitely keep that in mind as something very similar should apply to my 06' Hyundai Tucson GLS Sport as well as the fog light mod 🤔 😇

[@lisandro_5751]

I've tried this method and worked👍

[@shaneintegra]

You can get a diode that's like $0.10 and put it between the high and low in the fuse box. Takes less than a minute 🤷‍♂️

[@spiderrobotman]

There is a module called 'All Lights On' by Fleece Performance which will turn on fog lights and low beams any time you use your high beams. Lets you still control your fog lights when not using high beams which is nice. Super easy to install too, just sits under the relays in the fuse box.

[@tbmbn]

He has to already have it since his low beam didn't turn off when he turned his highs on

[@ericpigg2689]

I run this, it works awesome. High beam setting is next level.

[@The1AndOnlyJonathanBates]

It's called a .03 Zener Diode.

[@SkinnySkinch]

Only works on 2003-2006 not for the 2000-2002

[@tonyr9235]

Not sure if you'd be interested, but Fleece performance has a 6 high mod. When you turn the high beams on--your low beams and fogs all stay on. It's just a drop in/plug in inside your underhood fuse box. So all 6 lights are on at once.

[@orion000]

Sounds like fun

[@jasonjohnson1027]

I got all excited with I saw the Fleece mod but my truck is an '02 and the board doesn't work because the fuse relays are completely different. Busted by bubble!!

[@jacobmack3092]

The car of legends is back lol

[@1Brain4Wheels]

You nailed it with this one, I totally put on my fog lights whenever I get in at night, but always wished they would come on automatic! Thanks for making this video! :)

[@johhyher9432]

Yes I’m miss the Tahoe

[@misterrobato8270]

I don't like the mod for me. There are times I don't want fog lights on. Example in heavy snow I prefer low beams only. To each their own IMO.

[@deankay4434]

A switch can always be added to over-ride this system add-on. Most will understand your comment, but “Being Seen” as you drive can help avoid accidents. Their is always a number who will blow thru a RED light while folks make a legal left onto that roadway. Motorcycles get loud pipes to alert those who change lanes without the turn signal because they don’t come with them. How many of us has seen some car change 4 lanes without looking. My grandma called them “Floaters”. Never go on Green until you look both ways twice. Pretend you’re on a tri-cycle going into that 4-light intersection as it means nothing to someone steering with their knees and starring at the radio/console area.

[@johnsnyder8576]

Just got my charging pad, now I'll have to order this! I also put a bottle cap over the light sensor on my dash so my lights come on as soon as I start my truck. I Painted it grey so it blends & you don't even notice it. Works great.

[@Countryboyems11]

Im surprised you dont have the fleece chip mod. Lets you have all lights on when your high beams are on.

[@glennmanchester1568]

It did have high and lows on when highs were on so he must have already done that because it's usually not like that

[@angiesmith9196]

I have an 04 silverado with the fleece board. LOVE IT!!!

[@poipounder801]

love the tahoe videos because i own a 2004 cadillac escalade esv. because of the channel i upgraded my key fob and bought a cadillac emblem key on ebay to go with it. couldn’t believe how easy the setup was in the video. my wife always forgets to where the button is to turn on the fog lights. this will help. can’t beat the price, instructional video and never having to worry if my fog lights are on. keep the tahoe upgrades videos coming. thanx matt!

[@lsxmatt]

Thats awesome thanks for the support!

[@jameshall4385]

i don’t think it is a very good mod. a lot of states require fog lights to be turned off when you approach oncoming traffic. most cops don’t enforce the law but if they want to nail you for something, they will.

[@Armelmarcus]

In most cars when you have your high beams on the fog lights are off even if you have them turned on, but when you encounter on coming traffic and turn your low beams on the fog lights come on.

[@rednckracng517]

On newer vehicles the fog lights are on automatically. Jeep renegade you have to turn them off every time you stop and restart the car.

[@91sonomast1]

Next you need to do the 4 high mod. This way your low beams stay on with your high beams. I did a Morimoto mini H1 projector retrofit in my 2003 Tahoe so the 4 high has to be done to utilize the high beam projectors. So much more light it's insane with 4 high beams, and 2 of them being HID projectors, which are better than any drop in HID bulb in to stock housing.

[@lsxmatt]

Good to know thanks

[@91sonomast1]

@@lsxmatt there is a very simple way to do it. It involves a $.75 diode. I actually may have an extra. I think I had to buy 3. Now, if I can find it is another story, but I think I know where it is. You just jump it from one pin of the low beam relay to a pin on the high beam relay. They make harnesses and crap that are $50+, which is fine. My $.75 Radio Shack diode has been rocking it out for 5 years. And if I can find it, I'll hit you up for an address if you want it.

[@jeffstone7912]

Thanks for all the good content. I just bought a extremely clean 2002 Tahoe from my neighbor. 140,000 miles. Driven easy by a lady that had no children. Garage kept Arizona car.

[@charliehernandez3406]

Took me literally 10 mins while in the parking lot of my kids karate dojo waiting for them to finish up. No brainer. Great 👍 instructions. Cool product. 2003 Suburban

[@audimanao]

There is a much easier way to do this by using resistors in the fuse box under the hood, there’s a lot of forums about it and you can customize the headlights to come on however you want. 6 high 4 high auto fog lights on drls on with low beams etc. And it’s reversible by removing the resistors from the different relays if you decide to change your mind.

[@dank01man]

Got a link on how to run DRLs with nighttime running lights?

[@1ivannthegreat]

“ Look it’s Real !!” , of Course we can see it. Is he expecting a Ghost Tahoe?? lol 😂

[@peterrose5746]

Love what have done with the car. Driving with the front fog lights on, doesn’t that dazzle other drivers?

[@GR-uk5ou]

Can you still turn the fogs on without the headlight being on?

[@allanb3222]

No the headlights have to be on, or the marker lamps. It's tied into the wiring.

[@deankay4434]

The BCM module is looking for ground to turn on. Adding a ground thru a switch would do the trick. I think the colored end has a diode to protect back fow of current. Just remember, newer vehicles and the switches, inputs to modules are usually ground inputs. Hope this helps.

[@jeromebrotton9785]

Careful when you want your highs and lows to be on at the same time,,, they generate alot of heat and there is the potential of melting your plastic headlights.

[@colejackson6396]

This is absolutely great. My Camry has the fog lights on a toggle switch as opposed to a button, so I can just leave the fog lights in the on position and they'll come on with the auto headlights, but if I get into, for example, my dad's newer Silverado, it has the same issue as the Tahoe here and I'll realize that my fog lights aren't on after driving for 10 minutes or so. I personally couldn't really see myself driving without the fog lights on as well, they enhance the near vision a lot and I really like that.

[@The29041993]

Is a useful mod if you don't care about incoming traffic. Having high intensity led bulbs on your foglights without any option to turn them off is very very blinding.. I would suggest headlights with projectors or projector retrofit + xenon and you should have plenty of light without fogs

[@fredericktaylor2891]

Good looking vehicle. Many states and localities have laws governing the use of lights and their operation, might want to check your laws before altering how your lights function. The use of fog lights where I live is restricted and can only be used on low beams and they are to be adjusted to project the light in a low pattern. Running both high and low beams at the same time can create conditions that may lead to a fire or damage to the light housing since companies have gone cheap and make them from acrylic, had a friend that did this to his truck, wiring harness overheated and burned up.

[@michaelvoigt724]

I found a circuit board plate that fits this vehicle on Amazon and it is a six high mod. All lights come on high, low and fog lights! It is the cats meow for twenty bucks. You pull a few relays on the fuse box drop this in plug everything back in and done. The think I really like about it is as an electrical no getting into any wires!

[@jberkhimer]

I got the same in my truck. Fleece Performance is who makes it.

[@JoeyLovesTrains]

I really hope this is a joke, because I’m always getting blinded by people having their fog lights on. So I do have a question for you, when you are driving at night, do you turn the fog lights off when you pass somebody? Edit: this came off way more rude than I wanted it to, I’m not trying to sound rude, I’m just genuinely curious about you operating your fog lights.

[@jonahanderson2896]

Have you thought about doing a front end conversion to the 03-07 classic Silverado? I think it would look really good. I never really liked the Tahoe/suburban front ends from those years or the Silverado front end before 03. Might be a fun project. I know people do it all the time on Silverado without the cat eye look already. Apparently in Mexico they actually put the cat eye front end on the tahoes and suburbans for those years from the factory.

I really fell on love with the '07-14 body but getting scared away with all the engine problems,oil consumption, to add to all this its tough to find those years within a bargain people want $ 13k-22k , with 150 - 200+ MILES....

[@AndyTrent90]

Fog lights are NOT extra headlights. They have a purpose, and it is not to be on every time the headlights come on.

[@91sonomast1]

Why? It's not like they're going to blind people, and it's better foreground and peripheral lighting.

[@AndyTrent90]

@@91sonomast1 foreground is not something you want illuminated when driving in clear weather. You want to look further down the road, and having more light in the foreground makes you adjust your line of sight back, along with fatiguing your eyes sooner. You want the light cast down the road, not at your feet.
