Got it.thanks
Hey, I just picked up my AT4 and your channel has been really awesome for mods and learning what the truck is capable of. I love the content and the channel keep it up.
Thank you! Just sharing what I would do even if CZcams didn’t exist 😃
I have same exact truck and did exact same lite mods. Watched your videos for installation and worked flawless. Keep the mods coming and awesome job.!
Awesome! Thank you!
Sweet! I didn't know splicing into existing wires was so easy
Great Channel !! Picked up my carbon addition AT4 last week same year as yours, and your channel has been really awesome for mods and more. I just find out that actually, we don't need this Harness to let the spot light on with high beams. All I did was using "All Lights Mod" pin 10 and pin 22 and the spot light on with high beams.. Thank you for sharing all the great mods
Glad you like them!
I've been binging on your channel. I just bought a brand new sierra and it comes in a couple weeks. Can't wait to do some of these upgrades. Keep up the sweet videos!
Congrats! I am happy you found the channel! Hit the like button to help the channel keep growing! ✌🏼
@@Donslife you bet. Always do. I think you will do well. It's funny, I've never been a truck mod guy but guys can't help themselves, especially since all these are cool, cheap and fairly easy to do. Looking forward to start on some of them.
Awesome it looks good! I bought brighter LED for the Cargo lights in the back..then realized that you need to do so much extra stuff to be able to change them out
Yes, getting to the cargo light bulbs is a big job
Awesome looks great keep up the amazing work you do thank you so much 👍
Sure wish those lights could be replaced with something brighter ! But thank you for this video as always sir 👍🏻😎
I agree! But in the meantime I can put them to more use!
Bought it using your link. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the support 👍🏼
Cool also easy to temporarily disconnect say to pass an annual inspection ;)
It looks like that little short wire at the end that you attach is that the reverse flight mode
Great lighting mod. A bit unrelated but I have a 2021 at4 1500. Don’t have the live rear view mirror but there has to be a way to access the rear camera while driving or in park from the touch screen display. If anyone can find a mod for that it’s you. Great vids 👍
I will keep my eyes open 👀
Great vids. Ideas for more videos - Can you do a video on adding side mirrors (blind spot and camera) and front view camera to AT4. I got a level down from that package and really want the front camera at the very least.
Or a video on adding the 2500 side mirrors the the 1500 model
I can’t say for sure, but your head unit would need to be able to accept the camera signals. I don’t know if the coax cables are already ran to connect the cameras too with your model. This website might have some alternative options if not : www.rostra.com/search.php
How about a mod to auto fold power side mirrors in, when ignition is off, auto fold out, when ignition is on?
The fog lights on my '20 silverado come on with the button even if the high beam is on. I see majority of videos on YT don't have it that way.. I wonder if it's all about programming instead of wirings.
Do they have any mods for a new Escalade??? 🤞🤞☺️
These would be priceless for plowing.
Handy for sure. If only they were a lot brighter
@@Donslife plenty bright for the speed you plow at
used your link to order some stuff. Thank you
No problem!
Fantastic! Now there is a reason to use those mirror lights! Haha I was hoping someone would come up with a way to replace them with small light bars (brighter than they are now) but this is a good substitute! Thank you!
Do you know of any full length light bars that are made for the 2021 1500 AT4's? Not a universal fit haha don't trust them. Keep the videos coming!
Happy I found a use for you! For the light bar, are you talking about a front facing bar, or the tailgate light strip? I am not aware of an AT4 specific one for either yet. But I have installs planned for both. I am just waiting on some parts and free time
@@Donslife A front facing bar. I'll be looking forward to both videos though!
Hey Don does the truck need to be moving for it to work or turn on spots when the high beams are switched? Reason I ask is that I bought the same exact wiring harness and followed the video boost auto recommends to use and trying it there in my drive way they don’t come on when I switch the high beams. I verified the wiring even with your video and still nothing. Hadn’t had a chance to drive it yet and verify but just thought I asked won’t be at my house to try it for another couple of days.
Yes the spotlights will on work two ways : Original functionality - While in park by pressing the button OR when the high beams are on parked or driving. Remember the spotlights will stay on when the high beams are on with this mod.
Is there a way to get your side mirror cameras to come on when turning? They do when you are pulling a trailer but think it would be nice when not pulling a trailer.
The only way I know of (at the moment) is with a connected trailer - like you mentioned
Do you know if there is a way to have the bed cargo lights come one any time the tail gate is opened?
Automatically trigger them? Not aware of a ready to use mod for that
Cool how the GMC lights up on the front of that truck
I agree!
Love all the lights, the more of them on the better night visibility. But I’m so worried about voiding my warranty. You have any such worries?
None at all
My wire harness is very tight and hard to separate the wires, did you strip back some of the insulation the make it easier?
Yes just a little
Can I do any of these mods with just a straight t-tap and jumper, or do they all require diodes?
Diodes are essential
Are they just wire jumpers or are they diodes or resistors? For the back up light mod.
Depends in the mod. Several rely on using a diode. This one uses a relay and a fused power wire
I just bought a Silverado with auto high beams, I want to have to have the dogs on at all times with the low and high beams but still have the auto high beam feature, can I use the fog light mod and just tie it into the low beams also? And then a second one into the high beams?
You may want to ask BoostAutoParts to be sure (give them the model & year) and ask. I think that once the fog light circuit is active, it cancels the auto high beam feature
would you know of a mod that would automatically turn low beams with fog lights and at the same time if i switch to high beams fog light would stay on?. I just hate pressing the fog lights on allllllll the time at night.
I would reach out to BoostAutoParts auto parts and see exactly what they recommend for your vehicle
Can you have the spot lights on with just the normal low beams on as well? Or is it with just high beams?
Technically yes and it would involve tapping into another/different lead in the harness
How can I virtually have the same truck..I have the Denali....2021...how do I get these to be my run and turn lights...
Hi Don! I installed the high beams/fog ligts mod and it was working great for 5 months or so, now when I use my high beams my fog lights turn off! any idea how to fix it?
If the fogs work on their own, I would check the wiring and T taps. If none of the above I would contact BoostAutoParts for suggestions
Is there some thing that will keep the lights on day n night in auto mode?
Cover your ambient light sensor with electrical tape
do you disconnect battery before unhooking connectors from module?
Not for this install. Some of the installs offered by this company require the battery to be disconnected.
@@Donslife thanks
Where u get the gmc logo that light up?
From the GMC parts department
How do you add off road light and have them tied into your high beams? instead of having a generic switch to turn them on. i know how to do it with regular 12v system but not a can bus system
Find your high beam fuse or positive wire. Then add a 12volt relay to act as on on/off switch for the additional lighting you want to add. The additional lighting can be powered directly from the battery.
@@Donslifethanx,
Hey Don does this mod also allow the spot light to be used while in drive without the high beams on? I know they have a mod specific that but wondering if this allows that function as well. You have to hold the button down while in drive? Thanks
Hi there! The mod I have only adds the 'on with high-beams' function to their normal functionality. you'd need the other mod for other functions.
Any products out there to make fog lights brighter ?
Replacing with brighter bulbs 🤷🏻♂️
You still running this mod Don? I’ve got a 2023 Sierra 1500. Check engine light on after install. Did the “all lights high beam” mod, no issues. Did the “fog lights on with headlights” mod, no issue. But after doing this mod, check engine light now on. Confirmed all t taps are In correct location. Mirror lights work as they should with high beams, just disappointed to see it throws the check engine light after this last mod. Any info or update would be appreciated.
I would get the CEL scanned and find out what triggered it. A lighting mod like this, I don’t think would cause a CEL. Maybe one of the BCM plugs wasn’t seated in all the way?
Do you have to disconnect the battery
It is always a best practice when dealing with electrical parts
Have you thought about doing any mods with your puddle lights? As always, thank you for the informative videos!
Yes I have. You probably know, but GMC makes a part #84408373 that projects a GMC logo on the ground.
@@Donslife Need to find a way to make one that shines down your Donslife logo
@donslife you sure that’s the right part number? Can’t find anything on GMC’s site with that one
@@iiBiiRD here is a google search result:

@@Donslife you da man bud! Keep up the cool video’s! Thanks lol
Hey love the mod I’m confused is there a existing mod that you did in the video?
Which existing mod confuses you?
I was going to take my vehicle in to the dealership and have them look at my trans and android auto/apple carplay connectivity issues and i have these installed, will i have warranty issues with these installed since they are part of my electrical? I would hate for them to say my head unit connectivity issues are associated with these electrical mods. Wondering if i need to uninstall these! Thanks!
Separate system but simple to remove the mods if you’re nervous
@@Donslife would i need to remove the taps also? I would rather leave it all on, but would hate to have warranty issues over something simple.
I think you could leave it all, but that’s my opinion. If you did remove the wiring, leaving the ‘T’ taps in place should be fine since they wouldn’t be connected to anything at that moment.
Would this work on a 2020 2500
I would double check BoostAutoParts.com for your vehicle
Hi
Quick question how to do the same thing but to be with low beam?
Thank you 🙏
It would be a different pin location. I suggest contacting BoostAutoParts and asking for your specific vehicle. It should be the same basic install though
@@Donslife got it thank you
What about turn on with turn signals I live on rural areas you can't see anything until is to late I would buy that
I don’t know of simple mod for this, but I think signal lights also are suppose to be amber.
Hey don i have a question for u . How can i make my gmc 1500 sierra at4 ahead light strobe ??? Plz let me know how if u dont mind bud and thx u and stay safe
I think you might be witnessing the frame rate of my camera being out of sync with the refresh rate of the LEDs
@@Donslife hahahahahahahaha after i finished sending u that massage i realice i mess up by asking u that hahahaahaha but thx for responding anyway ...
Can any of these mods void warrant?
Highly unlikely. The manufacturer has to be able to prove a fault is due to the modification. There is a law to protect the consumer. Since these are mods turning lights on and fused, I have no reservations
Hey, do some mods for imports like German or Korean brands! Why all boring domestic trucks?
I have 46 ‘German’ BMW M4 videos. Almost all of them are mods, maintenance or coding. Bring your car to my city and maybe we can plan a mod for it.
Can they stay on with the low beams?
This particular mod only allows the ability to have them on with the High Beams. Otherwise they will only function while in park (normal option). They sell a mod that I mention early in the video that will let the spot lights work whenever you hold down the spotlight button. I believe that will allow them to work with the low beams
Yes they can wire up to be on with the low beams. Instead of wiring to the high beam pin you can wire to the parking lamp pin which is always on with low beams. Did it in my truck with some aftermarket lights and dark black tint (to dull the light).
@@davidhackett2922so now they can be on all the time?
G’Day Don, Boost Auto won’t post their products internationally. Is this something you could offer for your viewers ? JR from Australia.
I can make an inquiry on your behalf.
These light mods are great for off road but the people are using them on city streets and highway’s blinding on coming traffic. The factory lights are bright enough for regular driving so in that case I don’t think they should be put on and be against the law.
I think they have their place and application. I drive rural roads often so it is helpful. I also dim my lights to all oncoming traffic, because I am courteous. Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you for all the videos, I have a 2020 sierra sle 5.3 , I upgraded it to tow mirrors but I don have blind spot switch, if I were to purchase this kit would the spotlight turn on with high beam?
New in the box Black Manual Fold Trailer Camper Tow Mirrors & Door Harnesses.

I would consider contacting BoostAutoParts and seek advice. Their mods typically tap into the control side of the circuit in the BCM. You may not have a wire in the the BCM to tap in to.
Just purchased 2022 Denali. Will this mod work or shall I be the Guinea pig. Lol
I think it wood. Contact BoostAutoParts too just in case
Fender badge replacement, next video?
Sounds like a plan! Soon, promise
@@Donslife awesome
Blinding
😂 maybe not blinding
Just what we need more bright light's from pickup truck drivers.
I really think the intro should go. It's just feeding your ego. My ego doesn't enjoy it.
Ya I am working on something for the new year. Sorry man
@@Donslife ohh, it's not that bad. I'm just always complaining about everything haha. Don't change a thing man, And have a Merry Christmas
@@Memry-Man Merry Christmas 🎄 The intro is/was to help people know what the channel was about to help it grow.
@@Donslife I get that. But if people are watching the video, they probably know what their watching, if not they'll figure it out pretty quick
Will this work on a 2014 silverado
Sorry it won’t
