🔧 BUILD IlikeMTB’s new whip thread V. BUILD THAT WALL ALREADY

[Bob Kazamakis]

Heated seats you say???

Your steering wheel is in MUCH MUCH better shape than mine. I think eventually I’ll just end up swapping the whole wheel. If mine had the grip yours does I would definitely do what you did.

Thought about remote start at all? (Aftermarket) Now we are in that season here I’m strongly considering it. Thankfully and unfortunately since the ol lady won’t be driving for any appreciable amount of time I can use her Equinox with remote start..

I have. There’s that kit that’s like $120 people rave about. Been waiting for an eBay discount code to pull the trigger.

I put aftermarket seat warmers in my Sierra and they worked great and were under $100. Figured I’d do it again. Also have a full console on the way which will cover up any wires I’ll be running to the seats.

Whole steering wheel isn’t a bad idea either. I read no puller is needed and it can only go back on one way so seems easy. I did notice some were “loose” where your hands go which would drive me nuts. Other than the matte finish coming off the two covers, it’s in great condition.

What heated seat kit did you use, just the Doorman one? Tempted to add a set to my DD.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I used dorman ones in my old Sierra and my wife’s Honda. The pads are small. I went with a different brand this time but literally looks the same as the dorman ones just bigger pads.

Ok, thanks. The doorman one is what I was looking at. It would be going in just a base Encore, so the small pads wouldn't be an issue.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

My wife has had them for about 2 years now with no issues.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Installed one of these, wish I would of done it sooner. Cheap, only 4 connections and no splicing. Remote start on base model trash ftw

I've had my eye on these for a while. It beats fighting with a GM tech to program your bcm and getting matching fobs. way cheaper.

aw yisssss

That’s why I didn’t go that route. Spending $200 for key fobs and then who knows how much for a dealer to program wasn’t worth it. I paid $115 on eBay with a coupon. Literally just plugs into the ignition switch between the wiring and switch. Took longer to find a place to stick the box.

well thats neat. had no idea that was a thing.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Finally ditched the damn jump seat. This thing needs a good cleaning already. Women.

 

[IDAFC21]

But But the jumpseat had THREE cupholders!!!!

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

The console has 4! 2 for the rear occupants.

Is that the Chicco car seat base? Solid choice bruh.

Yea, fit2. Been good so far. 2 bases and one car seat.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

That looks sooo much better.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

The wife said its “weird feeling” because it’s short compared to the jump seat. She’s happy she can fill it up with garbage though

Still contemplating removing the 1” spacer out back.......

We just had lunch and talked about you. Don't worry it was all about how manly you are.

his pics make it look so good. From the side, in the dark, the wheel gap just seemed more lol. I’m a jerk I guess.

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

I’m sure he said nothing but nice things about my piles of shit

 

[EmersonHart13]

He showed me your list of potential piles of shit.

And we discussed boost leak on CUCV.
