OEM GMT400 fog lamp switch and wire harness
This specific one was removed from a 2000 Escalade that was being scrapped.
These switches are a bit difficult to find since most GMT400 did not have factory fog lights.
Great way to add fog lights to the GMT400 and keep an OEM+ appearance in the cab...
That is the PIAA air dam. It was manufactured for our vehicles and to mount the PIAA 90 Pro XT lamps. I know because I had this exact setup on my 1997 Tahoe:
The PIAA air dam is almost impossible to find these days, and the PIAA 90 Pro XT lamps are only slightly less difficult. It's all stuff...
Still haven't finished this thread, got busy at work and haven't been on the forum much. Planning on finishing the write-up over the next few days though. Sorry for the delay for those who wanted to know more details.

Close-up view of the high-end build installed. Compare to close-up view of budget build shown in post 1 of this thread. The high-end build has a bit more of a custom look to it, compared to the OEM+ appearance of the budget build. Really, I...
Retrofit 2, a high-end retrofit (continued):
Installation:
The following are the steps I took during the building of my second GMT400 retrofit. I learned from some of the mistakes and shortcomings of my first GMT400 retrofit to improve this one, but it is still not perfect. As before, please...
Retrofit 2, a high-end retrofit:
The second retrofit I completed was a high-end build using knowledge gained from the first retrofit in order to produce the highest quality lighting possible. It was also successful and provided further lighting improvement for my vehicle. I did a better job...
Retrofit 1, a budget-minded retrofit (continued):
Results:
Even at a total cost of less than $200.00 for all parts needed for this retrofit, the lighting improvement provided by the retrofit was dramatic.
The projector provides a nice even light output all the way out to the cutoff, allowing...
Retrofit 1, a budget-minded retrofit (continued):
Installation:
The following are the steps I took during the building of my first retrofit. It was a learning process and there were several aspects I would do differently given my current level of knowledge (see step 6,7 for examples). Therefore...
Retrofit 1, a budget-minded retrofit:
The first retrofit I completed was a budget build to see if I could do it. It was successful and provided a massive lighting improvement for my vehicle. For my first retrofit I defluted a spare set of OEM headlight lenses to allow the projector output to...
THIS THREAD A WORK IN PROGRESS, NOT YET COMPLETE
This is a build thread to document the projector retrofits I have built for my GMT400 platform Chevrolet Tahoe. There is information regarding two different retrofits in this thread:
Budget build that I did as a proof-of-concept. This allowed me...
