Hello everyone. Thanks for watching. This is George again at Wicked Warnings here
with a really nice new Chevy. I do like those white DRLs. Unfortunately, the spec
on this build was amber, so we weren't allowed to touch those white DRLs that you see.
What we have in the front there is our TIR-3 in amber alternating,
vertically mounted on that grille. This truck not only has the shutters behind
the grille but it also has the funky kind of angled honeycomb looking grille.
So if you have a grille like this, there's not a whole lot you can do as far as
mounting a light. But I found vertically mounting the TIR-3's right on the
edge there, you can drill a hole, keep the wiring out of the shutters off to the
sides and you can get the screws to actually bite in if you pre-drill the
hole cuz it is- the plastic's on an angle but you can get the light mounted right
there. Works great for a set of TIR-3's. It gives you a real good warning. As you
know, I'm a fan for the warning where it goes off to the side a little bit and as
you can see on that camera angle right now, this warning right here definitely
kicks off a little bit on the angle there. So when the truck's on the side of
the road, you're covered very well. On the back of
this truck, we're featuring our Wicked Stick, our Slick Stick 2-head in an
amber alternating flashing pattern, as well as our LED HAW DUO. We went with a
high dome in the reverse and a low dome in the cargo. The reason we went with a
low dome in the cargo is because we retained the factory cargo lights. We
have our LED HAW in an X-pattern. Let me pull it forward and show you. Alrighty,
out back as you can see, we've got our LED HAW DUO in amber in the cargo and in the
reverse in an X-pattern, as well as that Wicked Slick Stick in the 2-head
mounted right vertically in the back window. As you can see, we also kept the
cargo lights, the original cargo lights in that third brake light and we tied in
the steady white Slick Sticks to the same cargo switch and I will say
publicly that I am a fan of how Chevy does not automatically turn on the cargo
when you open the door. We would have had to do a workaround if
it was like a Ford, where you open the door and the cargo comes on or every
time the door was open, these lights would turn to white. Since
Chevrolet is cargo activation only by the dashboard switch, we are able to use
the dashboard switch to control this with or without the strobe lights active.
Again, without the flashers active, you can see you still have your cargo and
your white on your Slick Sticks and as soon as the cargo OEM switch is turned
off, we go back to the amber warning package. If you like this package and you
happen to have a new Ford F-150, take a look at our F-150 gallery and you'll find
this exact package, sister truck, done on an F-150. On that truck, we went ahead and
threw in another option to add white lighting to the rear Slick Sticks on a
separate switch and we did not use the flood mode. So it shows you another set
of options with the exact same lights. Now as far as mounting the Slick Sticks
here in the Chevrolet, this panel right here has kind of a hard radius in it to
mount, so we were able to lock this in with one single bracket. It rests firmly
down on here and it's tied in. When we've road-tested this, it's nice and strong. We
just used a universal bracket leftover from one of our other lights. As you can
see over there, the same style on that side. Here in the grille, you can see how we
mounted our TIR-3's and this customer came quite a ways, so I think he
wins the most bugs on the grille award. Long drive here but that's the TIR-3
mounted right like that in the grille. Looks very nice. Now regarding the
switches, we tried something new here and we just went ahead with this location. We
have done them before right here but I'll be honest, when you put two in here
it affects the mounting of this panel a little bit. It's really hard to jam two
into there, so we tried two right down here. We like the location. I will say one
thing, raise them up just the tiniest bit because this particular location puts
some right here at the mirror switch area and it's very visible, while you're
driving here. As you can see in the cabin, you can really see those lights, so I
think I'm gonna start using that location a little bit more because the
driver can really see it and it's easy to get to for two switches on these
Chevy's. So once again, this is Wicked Warnings, your number one source for
construction and emergency safety strobe lighting and equipment for cars, vans,
buses, SUVs, UTVs, CRVs, bicycles, tricycles, and unicycles. Thanks again.
