This video is spot on. I replaced my antenna in one hour and it was my first time. The part was $80 online. The dealer wanted 500 for parts and labor. Thanks
What’s the difference between the antenna that has the 1 plug clip on the end vs the antenna that has the 2 plug clips on the end?? How would you know which one your vehicle needs???
Wrap looks good. I’ve been considering wrapping my 2015 Sierra. Its got the white diamond tricoat but it has the issue where the paint is flaking away in random places and I’m not a fan of that
Thanks! Definitely could wrap it but you would want to get those places fixed first or the missing paint will show through on the wrap. Wrap is only a few mill thick so any imperfections show through. Also, because of how poor the paint is on these trucks, expect a lot of paint to lift when you remove the wrap. Possibly during install too :(
If it was permanently removed, how did you take care of the hole left in the roof? Considering removing mine for aesthetics (don't like it on my roof), but worried what to do w/the leftover hole/gap!
so my on star was a little different instead of having the clip that pulled out it was saudered in, once removed it gave me a check engine light saying no communication to fuel pump... but i know there is communication bc my truck starts and drives just fine. can you suggest anything?
The video I took on the 2016 is very similar. You'll need to drill out the plastic welds on the middle piece to separate them then I use 3m tape to re-install it

@@Channel0002take it apart and match parts? Or look up vehicle specific parts
Thanks. I did this to disconnect the OnStar because they were sending driving statistics and locations to my insurance company
Did I miss it. You said you were going to link to the video on fully sealing the antenna:(
I've been waiting for this one! Got my 2014 sierra a month ago
Great vid. Thanks for the info! Also, love the way you pronounce “water”. Heh - “wooder”.
I believe the correct name is the Oh shit handle.
🤣 trying to keep it clean for the video but I would say that is the more common name lol
@@TheSundaeDrive I completely understand. Good clean videos.

Just did mine. Replaced to attempt to fix the info center/GPS from scrambling. Apparently, replacing antenna is the fix, not replacing screen unit.

You would need to go to a good body shop and have them fill and paint it. Needs to be well done tho.
Helped me get mine changed out. Thanks
Great to hear!

Need a Video on 14-15' replacing the Mic on the head liner ?
Wat do you recommend for the oil consumption on these trucks...
I've never had an issue with that actually. Even before deleting afm it was ok. I have heard that installing a range device helps some people?
I do have the range device hook up right now but it dosen't seem To be working I actually tried to of them bu they don't seem to work ???
An oil catch can and make sure your PCV valve is good
Did the silicone work? Have the same problem
I have had no leaks from my antenna
Do you have a video removing the bowties??…I would like to Camo wrap them
I do on a 2016. What year is your truck?
If you go through the Silverado playlist you'll find it
2015 Silverado 1500 LT Midnight Edition

Awesome, Thanks!!
