Silverado Glowtie, but brighter.

[@edwardpayne96]

That's a neat idea. I was really disappointed when I got my gm bowtie and it was as dim as it is.

[@TexasGolfer]

Bro just kept cutting. 😂👍

[@erinjohnson8095]

Can you explain how you connected the LED wires? I used the harness that plugs into the headlights, but I've had mine less than a year and it's already out😭, so I want to do something similar.

[@derrickcassel]

The strips that I epoxied into the back had pigtails on them so I wired them into the harness that came with the glowtie

[@djrudy6319]

Did you consider using an rgb light to change colors? Anyway nice job!

[@derrickcassel]

I did but RGBW isn't really my thing. These strips do have a switchback function so I thought about wiring them to flash when I'm turning but decided on just leaving them white to keep things simple.

[@colorado5769]

Where did you get your led lights, I like how they power up

[@derrickcassel]

I can’t remember I’ve had them for a while, I think they came from aliexpress though.

[@solamente.yo.1]

I installed one years ago on my truck and it just lost its spark. 😩 and now it's completely off.

[@derrickcassel]

Well this thing is still going strong and way brighter than it was to start with.

[@209Stretch]

@solamente.yo.1 how long did yours last before it went out? I just ordered one:/

[@solamente.yo.1]

About 5-6 years. So it's still on, but very dim. Just sucks bc you would think it would last longer bc it's so damn expensive and you can't even change a bulb on it. 😒🥺😭​ @209Stretch

[@209Stretch]

Damn that sucks. I thought about that before I bought mine but it looks so cool I couldn’t help it.

[@erinjohnson8095]

Saaame! I've had mine for less than a year and it's already out.😭 Mine was def not free. Super frustrating😤

[@willmas138113]

😅😂 i was thinking about doing this thanks buddy your awesome brother

[@derrickcassel]

Go for it man aint nothing to it lol

[@_zoid]

Kind of crazy that a $300 OEM illuminated emblem would only have 6 LEDs. Good improvement!

[@derrickcassel]

Agreed. It's probably some sort of legality that they can only make them so bright if I were to guess.

[@reggielamay3870]

I gotta do this to mines. My led glows kinda blueish. How is it holding up?? Thanx.

[@derrickcassel]

Yeah I didn’t care for the bluish light either. So far so good.

[@juanflores-rp5mk]

Hey what is the part number to the bowtie u have?. I'm looking for one as well.. thanks

[@derrickcassel]

amzn.to/3VovF1g this is the one I used

[@daveappelhans]

Kudos Sir! At least the money you spent for clown school was NOT wasted!

[@digi3218]

Did you go to that school? I feel like only graduates would post comments like yours..

[@derrickcassel]

Valedictorian probably.
