    I love watching your channel. Thank you for all the great content. I have a suggestion for you to consider. With all the seperate led light systems you have on your AT4 can you get a system to synchronize all of them for the color changing and effects. In other words one app/control for all the lights. I have been looking with no solution yet. Thank you for your time and keep on YouTubing. JD

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Man, I wish! Like home security....everything has its own eco system. I would love to be able to get everything together on one app, but I can't see it happening anytime soon.

    I've had this site pulled up on a tab for over a month. Reason why I haven't ordered? Can't figure out what I want it to say!
    Also have Atomic pulled up, but Don, so jealous you're working with Ikonic! The customization is going to get out of control.
    BTW thank you for being honest about the slight light fade at the edges. Your communication is straight forward and unbiased which you can't put a price on. Thank you!! But don't get me wrong, it's bad@$$. You made any doubt I had about buying one disappear.
    Great job as always. Keep 'em coming!

  • @ChrisDIYerOklahoma

    Looks great! I may get one. What I REALLY want is a better steering wheel. You know, with those bumps at the 10 and 2 position, flat bottom, and 1/2 leather (top section smooth). Have you thought of that?

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not a bad call. I assumed there wasn't a sportier version. If you find one, let me know. The only thing is I don't really want to give up my heated steering wheel option either

  • @SierraStorm21
    @SierraStorm21 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have the same exact truck as you. I just got and installed the OEM finish ones with the 6.2L emblem and yes those OEM badges are hard to get off. I broke one of the plastic pushthrough pins on each of them. The one closest to the front of the truck. Just couldn't get my hand and tool at the right angle. Their not going back in anyway, so not a big deal and could probably superglue them back on if need be.
    My bigger problem is trying to find the circuit the DRL's are on or something that comes on with the truck to tap. I've tried the parking lamps, fogs and a few others, but haven't found one that will come on with the truck in accessory or running position. Tapping the Parking lamps/fogs work, but only come on when it's dark or I manually turn them on to load the circuit. Any suggestions?

  • @24kgraham
    @24kgraham ปีที่แล้ว +2

    love your channel, always have great ideas and how to on here.. since you have a bit of a following I will gift you this idea to see if you can prompt one of your relationships to make it happen.. my tv remote button will light up when I pick it up, our phones will do the same, automated light at home etc.. how come no auto manufacturer makes a key fob that lights up..?

  • @ryanrogers5316

    Will the badge illuminate when it receives power or does it need to be turned back on via the app every time?
    Thank you for making these videos! I have a 6.2L V8 AT4 and your videos are an honest look at aftermarket parts.

    • @Donslife
      @Donslife  วันที่ผ่านมา

      It will turn on when it receives power. The app is only needed to change colors/settings. Once set, it stays.
      Happy to make the videos if people want to watch them!
