How's everybody doing and thanks for watching. This is George over at Wicked Warnings coming
at you with a brand new 2022 GMC Sierra. This is a 2500, 2500 HD to be specific and if you wanted some
more information about this build, you're going to want to ask about estimate #1218-shop,
1218-shop is the name of this particular build. What are you looking
at anyway? Well this truck got a whole bunch of stuff. What you're looking at right in the face
in the grille is our LIN-6 in amber-white. We have that light in all kinds of different colors. We
also have a nice 90 degree bracket, which we're utilizing to mount that light right in the grille.
This is a fairly open-air grille, a lot of different areas you can mount a 90 degree bracket.
Very simple install and this 2500 HD we're looking at right now does not have active shutters. So
there was no real complications with the wire. If it does have active shutters, it's fairly easy to
go around them with your wiring and retain the same mount. Unfortunately, the customer is about
five minutes away, so I'm gonna have to make this video very quick. Above that, mounted to
the Back Rack, Back Rack above the toolbox or under the toolbox in the back- We have a Weather
Guard toolbox we have a Back Rack and on that Back Rack we have our 16-inch Whelen Mini LED
Bar. Now we permanently mounted that right to the top of the Back Rack. You remove the dome
and bolt it down from the top down into the Back Rack. Fairly easy process. Nice and simple. You don't
necessarily need any additional light bar mounts for your Back Rack if you wanted to use this 16 or
23 inch light bar. You can mount it directly to the top and as you see, it does clear the top of the
truck and it doesn't stick up any further than the point on each side of that Back Rack. So you don't
lose any more height mounting that LED light bar there. Again, that's our Whelen Mini LED Light Bar
and you can see here on the side shot how we tipped it forward just a little bit as far as
center align. We kept it a little bit further to the front than center align. So that way, if the
toolbox opens, it doesn't smack into the light bar too badly and that was mounted there, customer
request and it works out quite well. We mounted quite a few light bars right on the Back Rack
like that and have not had any problems. Below it, you can see our Thin-X. That's an amber-white light
but again, we have that light available in many different colors and we've put two on each side
side-facing. This is a snow plow truck. That's why we didn't do anything in the headlights and we did
very minimal in the grille, which we're gonna switch on a separate switch of course. This truck, by the
way, has factory auxiliary switches. Fairly boring there. We all know what they look like.
We put them on a variety of different switches for the users, what the user wanted. We talked with the
customer and did it how they wanted. So we also have a flood feature on all of the lower rear lights.
You can see there, we flood our Thin-X. We also flood our SoundOff 3-inch mpowers which are mounted
back-facing on the bumper. I haven't showed you yet but they're incorporated into that flood
as well. Now of course, like any of our builds, the white flood will work with or without the warning
but if you have the warning activated, as you can see, we have all the warning on right now, the flood
will override it. Alrighty, taking you around the back of the truck with the camera still up pretty
high so you can see that light bar, you'll see our three-inch amber-white SoundOff mpower. We mounted
that horizontally right by that rear license plate, as well as horizontally real far into the step. I
like to mount that light horizontally in the outer step pockets there. You can use the SoundOff
mpower. You could use a TIR-3, a LIN-6 we use quite often, a LIN-8 will fit there as well.
So many choices and it's just a great spot to put a light because realistically, when you
put your foot in that step, very rarely do you get your foot all the way in where you're gonna
damage that light way in the front. So we like to use that mount a lot and as you can see, when we
turn off the flood, we return back to our warning. Now we went with a more aggressive pattern on all
four of those mpowers in the back for a couple of reasons. One, when you're behind the snow plow truck,
that's where we want to be the most effective and most aggressive pattern, so I wanted everybody to
clearly see this vehicle. We also had a customer request to really light it up so he didn't have
any issues with people behind him not being able to see him. The other reason is we didn't want
to create a conflict too badly with the side lights. So by doing a faster flash pattern on
the small SoundOff, it allows the slower pattern on the Thin-X that's next to it
primarily side-facing to also show off pretty well. And what I mean by that is sometimes when
you have opposing patterns and the lights aren't synchronized together with this particular build,
you can't synchronize the SoundOff to one of our Thin-X's, so we had to go with kind of
a contrasting pattern so you could pick up both lights and they both worked effectively.
When you saw earlier on the side-facing, how well those Thin-X worked. Now you can see how well
the rear mpowers work joined together. I think we got a real good package on the back of this truck.
Again, this is all done owner request. He wanted to stay out of the tail lights, so we didn't
do anything in those. He wasn't interested in anything under the tailgate, so we skipped that
as well. We built it exactly how they want it and that's exactly what we can do for you if you ever
end up coming to our shop. Don't be fixated on doing exactly what you saw on any of these videos.
They're just guides. Feel free to modify, mix and match, and create your own unique package. Alrighty
now, speaking of packages, this particular build as you can imagine involves quite a lot of wire. So
we're going to provide you with the links in a bundle for all of these lights. We're also going
to provide you various bulk wire. This is bulk wire, you're going to need to cut to fit and
you're going to need to terminate and connect at all of the lights. You're also going to need to set
your flash patterns because you're going to get the lights but this is not pre-built. This bundle
kit that we're creating is a parts bundle. So that way, you can create this exact job in your own shop
with the material we provide but by no means is this a plug and play pre-built system. You will
need some assembly on your end. We're going to link you and provide you the light bar on the top,
all of the four mpowers facing rear, as well as the four Thin-X facing sideways, as well as the
two LIN-6's in the front with the brackets. Again, factory switched, so I'm not going to put
any switching options in here. If you'd like a switch, I would consult and take a look at our
switch category and take a good look at our Mini-6 Switch. That's exactly what we use on these GM's
and if you look in the GM playlist, you'll see it featured in other videos. Alrighty, so now regarding
the wiring that I'm going to provide and you can choose to provide your own wiring if you wish,
just simply line up the products and fill your shopping cart accordingly but we're going to put
in some 22-5 power control. That'll be used to extend all of your LIN-6's in the front grille
and your SoundOffs in the rear, as well as your Thin-X. They may not use every wire in that power
control but that's okay. The five wire 22-5 gives you all the features you need and sometimes extra
wires you don't need. We're also going to provide you 50 feet of 18-5. Now that's going to be used to
extend from back to front after you've gathered up some of the 22-5. 22-5 is too small to extend
all the way down back to front on the vehicle, so you're going to need to join them together,
possibly behind the rear tail light and switch it to an 18-5. If you want to pick up any other
wire, by all means, please browse the bulk wire section. Take a look at the adhesive lined heat
shrink while you're in there and possibly switches as well. Again we're linking you to all the parts
to give you the power to create the same build but it is not a system that's going to put itself
in the truck. There is assembly required. The wires need to be terminated. The patterns need to be set.
Any questions, please drop a comment or send us an email at info, info@wickedwarnings.com and we
