Yukon Denali LED Upgrade (Way Brighter!)

[@paulsalmon4771]

The front ends on the 15-20 Yukon and Escalade's are absolutely gorgeous

[@TWAMotorsports]

They are not my favorite

[@travisclark9134]

How's the factory speakers in your denali? I have to almost turn mine full blast to get a decent sound

[@TWAMotorsports]

They are pretty good actually

[@kcreative7293]

why is your windshield tinted? I thought that was illegal. thought you can only have about 6 inches from the top tinted

[@TWAMotorsports]

It is illegal but so is driving 1 mph over the speed limit. I do both I guess

[@JamesOKeefe-US]

I know this is a year ago but super helpful! The light colors alone really match much better overall and look awesome! Helped me replace my dims and fog lights and saved me a ton of time. Subscribed!!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. Glad it helped.

[@oSTYNCLSYo]

Did you do the AFM delete or do you use the Range Technologies AFM disabler?

[@TWAMotorsports]

Did afm delete with hp tuners

[@oSTYNCLSYo]

@@TWAMotorsports have you had any issues? I just purchased a 2015 Yukon Denali, i purchased a Range Technologies AFM disabler as i have paid for an extended 3 year warranty and can't modify the computer.

[@TWAMotorsports]

No but in your situation range is probably the best option

[@highoutputdriver]

Thank you for the link to the bulbs, the mismatched light coloring bothers me too. I picked up some LED reverse and license plate bulbs as well. What an amazing difference. Thanks for the very detailed videos, helping out the little guys for sure.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Thank you. I am going upgrade to LEDs in back soon

[@highoutputdriver]

@@TWAMotorsports I got the license plate LED and reverse LED lights from diode dynamics. The lights are very bright and don't wash out the reverse camera. The reverse lights are almost like headlights they are so bright.

I see a new top on the WS6 as well, look forward to that next update.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Good eye. Yes indeed

[@jnuno2079]

Hi! Just got a 2020 GMC Yukon my self. changed the lights and WOW.. what a difference!! can you tell me what tire rim and tire size you have. they look great. is it true the ride is rougher when you get bigger Rims/Tires? Thank you in Advance!

[@TWAMotorsports]

Its a 22 Denali wheel. 285/45/22 tire

[@0918hector]

What % is the tint on the windshield ? That can also can affect the lighting

[@TWAMotorsports]

35% yes it affects light but great during the day

[@mitchellhuey5612]

In Oregon, it is illegal to have tint on windshield with exception top 6".

[@imnotawasteoftime]

5000k or 6000k HID replacement bulbs give that LED look, and are brighter than the stock yellowish 3500-4000k bulbs. $20ish a pair on ebay. Have had good luck with them on my 2 escalades for them only being $20.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Awesome. Thank you for that info

[@jonathancastillo8802]

Marsauto also has good ones in 6k

[@TWAMotorsports]

Are they any good?

[@jonathancastillo8802]

They have several options try the cheap eBay ones I think like 20 bucks or so I’ve had them before and they work good and match with my 6k leds

[@TWAMotorsports]

I may do that

[@greystonerider]

When I go to Amazon to buy the fog lights it says it doesn't fit my 2915 yukon denali

[@TWAMotorsports]

That is a pretty new model. Probably why they say they don't fit

[@allmyfriendsaredead3107]

A few bulbs gives it that premium look, nice

[@TWAMotorsports]

I agree

[@billjohnston2858]

Since we both live in Missouri, how are you getting away with no front license plate ?

I just don't put it on

@@TWAMotorsports After struggling with Crappy HID replacement led bulbs that didn't work, even though Amazon incorrectly said they did, I slowly scrolled through your other video to discover the correct Sinoparcel HID to LED replacementbulb you used. Every bulb I was sent had the incorrect electrical connection plug on it for the HID's instead of the small, rectangular plug on the OEM HID.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Its because the slt had a regular bulb. Same year make and model

Will the fog lights in the description work for a 2015 Yukon Denali? Says it don’t fit

[@TWAMotorsports]

Should be no different if this body style

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

The Denali (and possibly Premier?) has factory HID headlights, the other trims do NOT.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I noticed that. Needs an hid upgrade to make me happy

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

@@TWAMotorsports I am not sure, I know they have a ballast to contend with for the HIDs that would need to be removed from the equation. My SLT had factory halogens so swapping all 6 lights to LED was very easy. LASFIT LEDs for fogs, highbeams, lowbeams, reverse lights, and then some generic LEDs for the license plate lights to complete the palate.

[@TWAMotorsports]

Yeah. Lasfit reached out to me about an option they have.

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

@@TWAMotorsports They're inexpensive but they are bright. How long will they last? I've only had the headlights/high beams in for a month now. But the reverse lights since March.

[@garyh.8082]

Just curious as to why you have tint on your windshield? That's illegal in most states, Although I do like it. One thing to be careful of is generally led bulbs can blind people temporarily due to glare, even if aimed properly. Reflector is bulb specific to type and Bulb location in the reflector. I'm sure if it's done properly it would be an excellent upgrade.

[@TWAMotorsports]

I like the look and daytime driving

[@Guillotines_For_Globalists]

And those air box lids are notorious for cracking near the bolt holes. Adding a washer to distribute the load around the screws is helpful! It's a crap design.

Seems like a good reason to add a cold air intake. LOL
