As requested: Great video, I've seen a ton of these on the AT4 forums but never a video. Having watched this, I too will replace mine but I'll have to wait until it gets warmer here in Michigan.
Ofx2gv makes a great product! (Wish their name was a little easier to remember lol) I found that when removing mine, not using heat worked out better. The adhesive peeled away from the truck staying stuck to the metal sticker rather than vice versa. Great video as always!
I just found your channel, and I have to say that your installation videos and DYI instructions are awesome. Greatly appreciate the content. Thank you. I definitely subscribed! 🤘
Most of your mods I don’t like, kinda makes me get Auto Zone upgrade vibes but your content is legit and I do like a few of them. I have a 21 3.0L Carbon Pro AT4 and love it.
No worries. I don’t think Autozone carries any of the mods I’ve done. The premise is to show people what they can do themselves and not that they should do them
😂 I did a mod on the mirror spotlights. Still waiting for you to turn notifications on 🤔. Just teasing, but I did make a vid. czcams.com/video/TdWEaC758vQ/video.html
I have the 2.7 2021 Sierra and I checked out that website you got the emblems from and the one I would get is the American flag unless I can speak to them to make one that just says elevation as mine is the 2.7 elevation package Sierra. It sucks having a plastic fender badge that is plain I wish gm made a nice gloss black with the word elevation rather than a word badge for the door
Good video. You do a great job of explaining not only what you're doing but you also show how to do it. Does anybody know if GMC or anybody else makes an illuminated fender badge like the illuminated GMC grill badge? I think that would look good. Seen them on other brands of trucks.
Movie Magic my friend. Actually it is not intentional, the frame rate of the camera syncs up with frequency of the DRL’s and makes that effect when recorded.
When you do the blade install can you try to get some before/after shots on your backup camera? I’m curious to see how it lights everything up before I bite the bullet on one. Other than that awesome mod videos
Just subscribed to the channel and love the content. I recently picked up a 2022 at4 carbon pro and its a badass truck. Wondering if theres a mod that allows you to leave the cameras on while driving instead of turning off after 8 seconds
It’s for cold weather when parked. It powers a heater element in the engine block to keep your coolant and oil from getting to thick for cold starts. It has to be pretty cold to kick in, but for me that’s November to April.
Hi Don Happy New Ear i install the back lead bar last week. I found a probleme i have to rework the clips holder the tape dont hold its to cold i put small screw for hold the clip (the clip are made for thath) just let you no
@@Donslife that’s the first mod I’m doing as well. And I just ordered the illuminated gmc emblem. So I’ll be doing that next. And the tailgate as well.
😂 of course it has the windshield defrost on the highest setting, but as soon as you turn any vehicle off (during the really cold days) the wipers accumulate up to an inch of ice if left on the windshield while it cools down. Just a best practice in -40° weather.
@@Donslife wow, gm owes one then. So if it’s factory do you think I could be able to order one for my truck by putting like your truck info and hopefully fits the same for mine?
Just my personal taste, the original Red Black badges make it look more balanced with the tail lights being Red... The Black White badges certainly are unique to your White colored truck; won't it be even more unique if they make them with LED back-lighting to light them up at dark... 😉
For sure. For me, we are ‘White truck country’. So many fleet vehicles for oilfield, mining and agriculture that Any subtle change in detail helps differentiate.
Only a little better. Furthest I’ve gone on this tiny tank is 650km. Usually getting about 450km-550km per tank around town. I honestly haven’t really cared about the fuel economy. Just a few remote starts a day in the cold and your numbers are thrown way off. I lived in Edmonton too, you know what I’m talking about 😂. I don’t have a tune either at this point. This summer I expect to see the best numbers since my truck will be broken in
I saw a random post on Instagram. I took a screenshot and contacted him directly. The website has been tough for me to find things too. Here is the description on my invoice : Black 6.2L V8 on white
Only us northern folks would have have this option. It is the quick connect for the block heater. It keeps the coolant and oil from freezing during the winter. It is a must have from December to February.

At some point when modding things, you get to a point where you're just doing stuff to do it. IMO these look tacky, as well as alot of other things on this truck. To each his own.
@Donslife Well definitely number one on my list would be that vinyl on the tailgate. It's pretty awful looking. quickly followed up with the roof spoiler and hood vinyl. Honestly just about everything to me just looks like it's too much and busy. I get it man, people want to be different and want thier vehicle to look different, but alot of times people just get carried away with it and just can't stop. It's always gotta be something, and next thing you know...well, you get what I mean. I like doing thing's to my Denali, but little things. Subtle things. Again to each thier own man. You do you.

wicked awesome. Didn't even know you could change those badges
Now you know!
You can change anything !!
super, this is great jobb-see you later! broth- :))
Nice Don, looks good!
As always...good stuff. Thanks
Looks great! I got to get a pair for mine!
Another great video Don!
Thanks. Can be hard to please everyone so I just do what I do
Nice job Don
Still waiting on the mirror spot light mod 😀

I’m subscribed I just missed this one 😀😀😀😀
😆
@@Donslife hahahhaha
Looks great!
Outstanding.
great share fam!!!
Thanks for the visit!
Look good but do they have any that illuminate? Nothing crazy but I feel like it’s missing something
There might be from another manufacturer. Maybe on ebay.
Looks good!

I reached out to him on Instagram. Maybe he has something
@@Donslife if they can come up with something that look oem I would definitely buy it. Thanks for asking them👍🏼
What's that red little plastic pry tool called? Looks super handy. Thanks for the video!
One name is a wrap stick for tucking vinyl when wrapping cars. They can be found on Amazon and come in various flexibility
Good video. You do a great job of explaining not only what you're doing but you also show how to do it. Does anybody know if GMC or anybody else makes an illuminated fender badge like the illuminated GMC grill badge? I think that would look good. Seen them on other brands of trucks.
I haven’t seen anything specific for these trucks, but always keep checking
Hey buddy great videos but i was wondering how did you get your daytime running lights to flicker like they do
Movie Magic my friend. Actually it is not intentional, the frame rate of the camera syncs up with frequency of the DRL’s and makes that effect when recorded.
I have the exact same vessi shoes lol
So comfortable!
When you do the blade install can you try to get some before/after shots on your backup camera? I’m curious to see how it lights everything up before I bite the bullet on one. Other than that awesome mod videos
Good timing! I am starting that video tomorrow hoping to have it ready to post by the weekend
Is that an electric truck, you need to plug it in?
It’s the connection for the block heater. Keeps the coolant and oil warmer to be able to start in the extreme cold.
Looks good….
Just subscribed to the channel and love the content. I recently picked up a 2022 at4 carbon pro and its a badass truck. Wondering if theres a mod that allows you to leave the cameras on while driving instead of turning off after 8 seconds
Welcome! I don’t know of one yet! But I will feature it here if I learn of a mod to do it
What was that plug 🔌? My truck has a small hole in the same spot and I thought a part of the grill came off. Guess it’s a plug for something now
It’s for cold weather when parked. It powers a heater element in the engine block to keep your coolant and oil from getting to thick for cold starts. It has to be pretty cold to kick in, but for me that’s November to April.

Thanks! I am waiting for a little warmer weather to install my upgraded LED bar.
Looks bad ass brotha!!!
Also when you added the 50 cal bullet antenna what adapter did you use.? The m6 or m7? I bought the same one for my 2022 AT4
Oh man, I don’t remember. It might be in the video of me taking delivery of my AT4. It was the first mod I did
@@Donslife that’s the first mod I’m doing as well.
And I just ordered the illuminated gmc emblem. So I’ll be doing that next. And the tailgate as well.
I want to replace the red GMC emblem on my steering wheel to black. I have been able to find the Chevy bow tie but not the GMC…..can you help?
When and if I find something, I will share!
Imo, it would look good, if the white was actually color matched. Devil's in the details imo.
No winter windshield heater option?
😂 of course it has the windshield defrost on the highest setting, but as soon as you turn any vehicle off (during the really cold days) the wipers accumulate up to an inch of ice if left on the windshield while it cools down. Just a best practice in -40° weather.
What exhaust is that?
Borla S-Type Catback
Can you please tell us where did you get the roof antenna cover in white please?
Don't get mad - The white truck came with the white cover :)
@@Donslife wow, gm owes one then. So if it’s factory do you think I could be able to order one for my truck by putting like your truck info and hopefully fits the same for mine?
What if... you did the blade install WITH some auxiliary reverse lights!
I like your style, I could add auxiliary lights after, but the light bar is pretty much ready to go now
Just my personal taste, the original Red Black badges make it look more balanced with the tail lights being Red... The Black White badges certainly are unique to your White colored truck; won't it be even more unique if they make them with LED back-lighting to light them up at dark... 😉
For sure. For me, we are ‘White truck country’. So many fleet vehicles for oilfield, mining and agriculture that Any subtle change in detail helps differentiate.
What is the flat tool you used to slide behind the badge?
Look up Vinyl wrap tools. You’ll see them come in 3 colors. Black, Blue and Red. Each color has a different flexibility or rigidity.
Does your GASOLINE engine have a block heater?
Yes 👍🏼 Up here in Canada it is hard to find a gasoline vehicle with one.
what mpg you getting with aftermarket exhaust, cold intake or tune you have ? Edmonton Location
Only a little better. Furthest I’ve gone on this tiny tank is 650km. Usually getting about 450km-550km per tank around town. I honestly haven’t really cared about the fuel economy. Just a few remote starts a day in the cold and your numbers are thrown way off. I lived in Edmonton too, you know what I’m talking about 😂. I don’t have a tune either at this point.

I don't see the black on white option on thier site, did you contact them to have it custom made?
I saw a random post on Instagram. I took a screenshot and contacted him directly. The website has been tough for me to find things too. Here is the description on my invoice : Black 6.2L V8 on white
@@Donslife thank you. I'll use your example when ordering, there's a spot to add notes on the checkout screen.
Where do I buy a badge for my 2021 sierra it’s a 2.7
Actually like the contrast of the original. Just a opinion
That’s fair. We have so many white AT4’s in this area and I wanted to be a little different
What is going on here? @1:23 I've seen a lot of your videos and don't recall this.😁

Tail gate mods????
First
What do you have connected to the fog light?
That is a block heater cord that keeps the engine coolant warm otherwise starting the truck in -40° can be a real problem
Looks too funny all white with black...some additional lines of black would look more customized
I was going for too funny 😁
Was much better and nice now is look cheap
I like it

I’m not offended, but I am curious, you stated ‘a lot’. Which other things?

This is so childish
You’ve forgotten immature too
That’s so stupid.
