Today was audio day! Yanked out the 20 year old Bose speakers for some brand new 6" kicker speakers and WOW what a massive difference. Don't get me wrong Bose is good but the difference is just night and day! Waiting on my Pac interface so I can put in the Pioneer DMH-WT7600NEX. Rear door speakers will be tomorrow especially since the passenger rear doesn't work😮‍💨

Ok yall here are the before and afters of the plain Jane Yukon interior, upgraded to the Cadillac Escalade super nice interior. Every panel, carpet, seats, center console and dash! And yes I went with the rear bench over the capt chairs because I need the room in the back and don't need 3rd row!

The Yukon is getting a cadillac escalade interior, but had to do some repairs first. The 22 year old dash was a little cracked, so i pulled the cap off and went to work. Hopefully this will hold up until I get tired of it. Also the cap will be going back on but correctly this time. TEMU ftw on the plastic welder too! Only 9 dollars and it works freaking amazing!

NEW MOD DAY! Stock intake tube with Airaid! I've got to say it DEFINITELY cleans up the engine bay nicely and from what i can tell the throttle is a little more responsive than before. Also the throaty BURRRRRRR sounds is awesome! Definitely $163.00 well spent if I do say so especially for how nice it cleans up the engine bay and still pulls air from the cold, stock box.

P.S.A!! There a several huge parts installs going to be happening on the Yukon here in a few weeks, and as some may know I'm going to do a whole custom shifter relocation, pics below of what it'll look like. Shifter is out a 2007 Envoy Denali! (Shifter not installed yet) Then we have the Speed Engineering full exhaust coming thanks to Vinnie Bono and THEN I was just browsing around and found an Airaid MIT intake, it deletes the stock intake charge pipe with the resonator chambers and makes it a straight smooth intake and cleans up the bay...a lot, all while retaining the factory air box "which actually pulls cold air" so yall staying tuned and definitely get with Vinnie for all your go fast parts. Please let me know if yall have any questions!

Link for the intake, and it's on sale right now!

So last night I did a thing! I finally swapped my WolfBox mirror in my truck and thins thing is freaking sweet! It's not the top of the line model unfortunately but still works fantastically! I've actually had it sitting in the box for a while waiting till I get my interior fixed to install and I'm so glad I waited. Just a touch of new tech in the old sled is definitely nice! It's also records front and rear which is a nice safety feature!

A little update on the interior installation and unfortunately I did not get any footage of this because, damn that headliner was a pain in the ass! Here's the list of that I did

First the tricky part, sunroof slide...YOU CAN REMOVE IT OUT THE TOP! Undo the (4) 8mm bolts holding the sunroof glass in place, take out glass then in the slide, there are 4 clips on each corner. Depressing the 2 in front first, pull the front out the track then slide the shade forward and get the rear 2. It's pretty simple once you grasp the concept.

Then, I removed all interior pieces, seats and moldings

Removed all carpet and padding

Removed headliner (sucks) FYI the wires for the upper controls and dome lights are glued TO THE HEADLINER so I just pulled the wires off and let them hang.

Cleaned carpet and padding with LA's totally awesome laundry detergent and LA's totally awesome cleaner for tougher spots.

Now the fun part for the headliner. I had to pull off the old material which left the old foam on the fiber board, you can either scrape it or use 60 grit paper with a 5" orbital sander to get it off (which is what I did) finish sanding off old foam and cleaned (just blew it off and wiped it down) be sure to wear PPE because you'll be sanding and getting fiberglass all over the place and yourself.

Next I installed the new headliner material i got (5 yards) of it from hobby lobby just to be sure i had more than enough and it was plenty for the Yukon and going against other recommendations (because I already bought 4 cans of 3m 90) and I was limited on time and had to order the other stuff a day couldn't wait. So we'll see if it holds up.

Reinstalled padding and went with harbor freight moving blankets on top of that, for added heat and sound deadening. Then Reinstalled carpet and headliner. I will be adding actual sound proofing butyl rubber matt to the back walls and inside doors today for more added sound proofing.

Here are some pics of yall have any questions feel free to ask!

Today is new headliner day! If anyone is needing a new headliner and are going to try to do it themselves, Hobby Lobby has all fabrics including headliner for 40% off right now, so now is the time to go get it and get it done. 3m 90 is unfortunately 14 dollars a can🥲
