Silverado / Sierra - High Spot Lights + High Beam: Boost Auto Parts Modification

[@bamaknifeguy]

How does this guy not have 5 million subs 🤘🏼 Great attitude. Great content. Clean content. Beautiful vehicles with sick mods. What more could a viewer ask for…..I’ll answer for you…….Not much more. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@richardloewen7190]

Boost auto also has a 6 high mod where when you turn your high beams on your low beams and fog lights also stay on

[@michaelhalstead64]

I think this would be more helpful. Those mirror lights would get you pulled over where I live.

[@indianajets]

Thanks for the info, that's what I'm looking for!

[@isaachodges4001]

I told myself there was no way I'd try that install. Then I watched the install video you linked. Its so easy how could I NOT try it?!? I'm making the purchase right now!

[@jdizzo760]

Damn lone star, it’s boost auto baby!!!! Of course they are gonna have the 6 high mod!!!! Never have to push the fog button again!!! Been running that 6 mod & auto fog combo on my 15’ for over year and so happy with the results!!!

[@7sinscustoms]

I used the resistor for a Silverado, in my Jeep Wrangler to run my DRL. My Jeep also, does high/low DRL same time. Also, Off road lights also. Have same set up in my Silverado also, plus DRL. Boost does a great job, easy install.

[@stevejudkins6358]

Boost auto also makes a kit to have your fog lights turn on automatically and they also stay on with high beams.. check it out !

[@rileykruse849]

I wonder if you could do both mods?

[@stevejudkins6358]

@@rileykruse849 I don’t see why not.. you would use the same high beam circuit for power and then find the fog light circuit and tap into it for the 6 high mod. Easy peasy.

[@chrissambol]

You’ve got some great videos, brother. I have a 2020 Silverado and I really appreciate your installs and reviews of products. 👍

[@timfoppiano3990]

Boost also has kit to override so you fogs stay on with high beam

[@jeremyw9213]

I really like this mod. I have the same light setup. Going to check out the link for the harness. Thanks for the video, can't wait to see what's next for the trail boss.

[@maxstein2011]

Just buy a 2021 RST, definitely buying these LED lights, its the attention to details that matters to me.

[@jredd801]

Rigid has a nice set of driving lights to replace the factory fogs.. DOT compliant flat beam also..🤙

[@LonestarHawaiian]

🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@johngerry7986]

The reason your fog lights turn off when you turn on your high beams is because if you turn on your fog lights, it's assumed you're in... fog. High beams affect more than help in fog. All manufactures do it, even my '04 ram did it. I do wish they'd allow you to manually turn them on at the same time. Just a bit of knowledge for everyone!

[@rkelly5803]

Agreed, factory fogs always shut off with the high beams.

[@j.s.2623]

The reason the fogs go off with the highs is that many states have a law only allowing 4 forward facing lights to be on at one time.

[@markmanning5683]

While on Boost Auto's link, I saw where this modification Part #1844H is listed "For Off Road Use Only". Some States limit the number of White lights "On" at one time while on Public Roadways. Great Idea, be careful....

[@CrunchEnhancer]

I think it would be awesome if they came on when turning with the turn singles, left one when going left and right when going right

[@jakesmith8366]

Boost Auto also has a module you can install to keep fog lights on with high beams. Dont know how that will work with this module though.

[@xx_alex_xx5430]

Good to be back!!!

[@jayc5934]

Now it’s time to get the high 6 mod (now in your case high 8 mod🙃) from boost auto parts 👍

[@ericpfeiffer3604]

Check out fleese performance for all lights on

[@JohnD0129]

Cool mod. Wish you could just turn them on without the high beams. Would be awesome just to hit the button like you do your fogs

[@TheALPHAdizzle]

Seems like a missed opportunity not to add the fog lights on at the same time with the highs and the side mirror lights. I did that years ago in my 2017 Silverado.

[@stefanknight2286]

I believe its a law that fogs can't be on with brights since most regulations state only four lights can be on at at time, and the highs and lows count as four when on.

[@LonestarHawaiian]

Interesting 🤔 thanks for the clarification!

[@USMC1188]

Ahhh. That makes way more sense than the other crap people are trying to say, lol.

[@Denali_Rebel]

So if he uses his high beams he’s breaking the law

[@MrKFC68]

my 2019 LT does not have power. Did your 2020 come with those mirrors? I need to install power mirrors. Any suggestions??

[@EvoFredo]

Great vid. I appreciate the how to’s. Any plans for adding the tow mirrors to the boss. ?Something Id like to see & do in the near future.

[@stevekirk5461]

Hey buddy, great vids! Mate have you got plans to do a vid on setting up a dual battery kit?

[@eazyis13]

Now you need the connector so you could run youre fog lights with high beams.

[@Cowboy12-9]

Not sure if there is a difference but I have a 2022 trail boss and this did not work on my truck. I triple checked. I definitely had the correct wires. I cut the wire tap back so I had a nice clean view. It didn’t work. Guess I’ll have to push the button..😒

[@officialstrike_]

What about a light bar behind the grill lol

[@timothyberlinski2299]

Be cool to have them Turn on with blinkers too

[@justinyoanis1178]

Before I purchase this item can you drive with it with your regular lights on

[@michaelhalstead64]

I had to pick between the safety package that includes those lights and the 6.2L motor on mine... I picked the motor. Not sure what to do with those lights since we get pulled over around here for running ditch lights on the street.

[@rafaelernesto8234]

Ok I managed to see the connection of the brown connector but the gray one I could not see it well

[@kcbc9037]

@11:40 it’s a legality thing not a Chevy thing. By law you are not supposed to be able to have your fogs and high beams on at the same time. I have no idea the why behind it.

[@taylorjacobs4115]

My 2020 LT Trail boss does not have the spot mirror lights. Is it possible for me to install them?

[@robfigueroa5457]

Hopefully you get some clarification on this soon! I just bought a 2019 LT trail boss and was wondering the same thing.

[@cnovak1994]

Having brights on while using fog lamps is also counter intuitive. The brighter the light forward facing, the more it reflects off of the fog and thus lowering your forward visibility. It’s a curtesy thing

[@USMC1188]

No one uses their hi's in the fog because it doesn't help. Being able to have the fogs on with hi's makes sense for more light output on a dark road. As far as courtesy, hi's are usually turned off when another vehicle is approaching so I'm not sure where you're going with that one.

[@cnovak1994]

Brighter light reflects back at you when shined at fog

[@USMC1188]

Yes that's what I said. The very first sentence.

[@cnovak1994]

@@USMC1188 He asked why do the fogs turn off when the high beams are on. My first comment was a response to that. We both are saying the same thing

[@apr9286]

Does your truck have the puddle light under the mirror? If so I did notice if it was on with this mod. Thanks

[@MRLUGNUTS]

Going to be doing that.👍

[@justinmartin7056]

Ever looked at an auto stop eliminator? Curious to see if there is anyway to do it without tearing down the whole dash. Only vids I’ve seen include 20 clips, side panels and dash removal to get to it. I’m too scared I would break one. Enjoy your vids working on afe muffler delete and just bought this kit as well as the all light mod.

[@LonestarHawaiian]

I want to so bad... I turn it off immediately after starting the truck. I hate it . lol

[@joesapienza6105]

@@LonestarHawaiian There is something you can put inline with the switch that makes it so you don't have to turn it off every time you get in the truck. Here is a link to one: www.autostopeliminator.com/products/2019-silverado-sierra-autostop-eliminator

[@bigguyoutdoors7554]

So when is someone coming out with an LED replacement for the mirror light that's way brighter than stock?

[@eduardo.1kk129]

Do you precisely need to disconnect the battery ?

[@christopherojeda2549]

I put this Mod on I also put the fog light auto on Mod. You don't need to purchase the 6 Mod also. On my Silverado when my high beams are on the fogs stay on also. Just FYI Save your $$

[@ThatWideZ71]

Can you do fug lights too

[@sharpy3453]

wonder how hard it would be to get it so the fog lights stay on....

[@surfhwm31]

Can you add that function to your dog lamp switch.

[@jdhdale]

The reason your fog lamps shut off, with high beams is federal law. By law a on road motor vehicle may have only “4” lamps on at any given time on road. Low beams count each as one, a driving light or fog lamp each count as one. So if you have low beams on, and fog lamps that is four. High beams count as 2 each. Again four. Having more lamps on, on road, is a violation for each lamp. Now if you turn on off road only lamps on road…those count as 6 each. In some state they will suspend your license for using off-road lamps on road, and confiscate them. Don’t ever turn on a rear facing lamp while driving that too is illegal

[@JattAnmoli]

Next mod: AFM/DFM disabler. Save you some lifters.

[@TheBeeznuts1]

Talking about bright lights. Do you know if there’s a light for the bed that’s brighter than the ones from the factory.

[@LonestarHawaiian]

That I don't yet. I'll check into it. The bed lights are plenty bright for me, but could always be brighter.

[@Leatherkid01]

Nice ... am sure fogs with high beams mods are available too

[@richfulks2175]

Does this part also work on my 2021 trailer mirrors?

[@danielcastorena3057]

Install the Chevrolet Bowtie Puddle Light!! ❤‼🔊

[@LonestarHawaiian]

Good idea!!

[@arianmedina7069]

You should put GTR ultra 2 LED lights on it

[@justinyoanis1178]

Maybe connected to your Fog light

[@Mvqsr14]

Can they be made to work with blinkers???

[@JosephNnbs]

Now you need fog light on with high beams

[@IamMugs]

Why I shy away from this type of mod. Pretty soon, you've got a clusterfuck of wiring down there. Waiting to see what WAM has in store

[@JosephNnbs]

@@IamMugs well with 07-13 truck is just 2 connectors you t tap and your 6 hi mod is done. In 99-07 trucks it’s a circuit board you plug into the relays and you have 6/8hi mod and done. Newer vehicles are always more complicated

[@brucebroom2739]

Shouldn't there be a way to just override the park kill function for the mirror lights? Seems like it would be nicer to be able to use the functionality of those lights whether you're in park or not without having your high beams on.

[@juanjasso3238]

Love your videos ..... question ?? 1.... when is the Monte Carlo coming ??? 2 .... when are you getting the new wheels for the trail boss ???

[@billsantana2095]

Do they have trail mirrors yet for the 2020 Trail Boss?

[@dwightkeeping9545]

Great videos. I have a 2021 Chevy Trail boss. Are the high spot beams a OEM product or an aftermarket product. Would love to have these on my truck.

[@efremespinoza]

Now you just need LED turn signals!

[@gregbrandes3932]

Hey LH, I also have a 2020 Trail Boss, in satin steel, I did the reverse and license plate bulbs after watching your video, awsome upgrade, do you plan on putting tow mirrors on your Trail Boss, and which ones do you recommend? I watch all your videos keepem comin 🤙

Will this work on the sierra?

Can someone tell me what these are like with snow?

[@jorgeflores2785]

Does this void your warranty? and would this work on the Sierra as well?

The fogs cut off with brights on due to legality tissues, not a GM thing

They’re always out of stock so whats the use

Gotta get it tuned out, but it will void your warranty if you take it in for work if you care about the warranty

[@rileykruse849]

@@chainsawmanny do you know how to do it tho?

[@ejy99]

I know an older post , hope your still monitoring comments. If so, can you please clarify something for me? When you use this mod, and turn your high beams on, can you use the dash switch to turn off the mirror lights? For times when you want your high beams, but don’t want the mirror lights. Typical highway driving with highs vs back road driving where you’d want the mirror lights too. Also, I picked up the auto fog mod, keeping fogs on with auto headlights, because I like running them all the time, and the high 6 mod, keeping the fogs on with highs. You see any reason why this mod with the other two wouldn’t all work together, giving the high 8 option? I get the rats nest of wires but the other two mods are a single wire so it wouldn’t be that bad. Love your videos and what you do! Thanks for all the help.

[@boostautoparts]

Unfortunately there is not an override to turn the mirror lights off when the high beams are activated with this modification. You do retain all factory control with the high beams off. You should have no issue combining mods.

[@ejy99]

@@boostautoparts thank you for the info/reply and for continuing to monitor comments on your products. Can I expect the same functionality with the auto fog and the high 6 mods as well? If the fogs are on when the headlights come on automatically (auto fog) then you cannot deactivate them (fogs) with the button. And similarly, with the high 6 mod, brights on, fogs can’t be turned off either with the button? Appreciate the help and looking forward to installing this weekend.

[@boostautoparts]

@@ejy99 That is correct - those products also do not have a way to override the automatic nature.

[@LonestarHawaiian]

If you need warranty work where they'll be under your dash, just remove it.

[@unixdoes]

definitely go for the 6 on high mod at some point, i love being able to have fogs + brights on. they disable fogs on high from factory for safety reasons, otherwise some idiots would go around with their high beams on in fog...and that just glares vs increasing visibility.

[@shampoojones5447]

So many damn Trail Boss videos. Anyone make videos for us cheap bastards with our Silverado LTs? I’d watch that. I mean, ain’t no custom s#!t to be done to an LT? There are literally thousands of Trail Boss and High County channels.

I am amazed at how the police have decided to stop enforcing vehicle codes forbidding things like this and offroad LED bars not being covered when on the road. I hope for your sake they don't suddenly remember to writ tickets for it.
