@@BadlandIndustries mine didn't come with floor mats, so probably that. I also want to motorize the rear window - if I have time this week, I want to start modeling it up in CAD and see what I come up with.
@BadlandIndustries yeah if you use an acme thread or similar, you can't (easily) back-drive it, so that would act as the lock. Plus the window is so small, there is little concern about someone gaining entry to the cabin if they did somehow break the actuator.
My first mod was blacking out the side markers with some tinted vinyl wrap I had left from another project. at the same time I also added PPF to my door sills, and then added a 10" Powered hideaway sub. and Finally AVS Window visors. meanwhile Patiently waiting on some more after market parts :D

I dont remember off hand. Lightest I could on the front, darker on the front 2 and lighter on the back half. It all looks super even. Honestly seemed to feel like the cab stayed warmer due to it. We'll see how summer does
Great video, thank you for the recommendations!!. Besides the Dome Lights, where else in the truck you used the LED bulbs you linked in the video description?

Nice video. Thank for sharing. Couple questions and a comment… -Where did you find the dash track? Been looking all over for one of those and can’t seem to find it. -What was the 3rd brake light? Asking, because I installed one and want to know if I should be watching out for a leak. -Lastly, I’d say no to the BoV. Personally, I think it would get annoying. Thanks! Jeff
I made the dash track and vent mount. 3rd brake light doesnt leak into the cab but I had moisture inside of it recently. If you say no to the BOV spacer you'll hate my video being uploaded right now lol
For your dash cam / rear view mirror. Where did you mount your rear facing camera? Did you utilize any of the HD vision cameras or did you mount the provided one somewhere?
Nice video.. exactly the kind of material i was looking for. just one question, i try to find the led lights you used for the interior of the truck but couldn't find them in the list, please help
I have a video on the bov spacer. The under hood light was literally a 5min install and by no means difficult. Just run the power to the battery and it grounds out through itself where it mounts.
Any update on if the blow off valve has become annoying or not? Just got my 2024 AT4, deep bronze metallic, 2 days ago. Screen protectors are gonna be a must.
Hey man, thanks so much for your video! I was wondering, do you know if there’s a way for us to add the DSSV jounce control dampers on our 2023 Canyons? We seem to be missing a bracket that the 2024 models have included. Just wondering if there’s a way for us to add that bracket. Thanks! AP
That too is pretty simply. I complicated it by using that blue switch but there's already a pigtail under the bed you just tap into. Add a switch in-line and mount the lights and run the loom.
First Mod on my ‘24 Denali was LASFIT LED BULBS, Interior, Reverse, License Plate, 3rd Brake and Cargo Lamp, PUTCO 3 function tailgate plug and play light bar, Vanish Tonneau Cover. Still want to do the tail lights but not sure what number bulb they are. And yes Blow Off valve install and review
Editing it currently. I made the mistake of going cheap with the hard wire kit and chased the issue for months. Got it sorted and video will be out soon.
you said you put the same LED bulb that you used in your dome lights all over the truck? Where else did you use them? License plate lights? Fender lights? Where? You said you bought 10?
The 194s were a pack of 10. So the dome lights are 194, I did the reverse lights but I believe those were different. Fenders were their own housings but I wouldn't recommend them as I've blown all the LEDs out of that pretty quickly.
I have them. Many people are skeptical about them. I'm still testing the spacers I have on my truck. I didn't want to recommend something that wasn't safe.
OT.....I'd like to replace my LED headlights to stronger ones. I have a 2023 GMC Canyon Denali, the AUTO place I do business with stated that the LED lights are sealed and can not be replaced. Is this correct? Thank You.
I ordered these and you actually need 2 large for the front seats and 3 small for the back seats. You could get away with only 2 small for the back, because the middle seat isn’t hitting plastic, but I went with 3 so they all look alike.
I have a 2018 Colorado and run 35% tint on my front doors and back window and limo zero on the back windows and it was a night and day difference not just in brightness but in heat.
I forget exactly but I believe 70 on the windshield and all the rear windows and 50 on the front 2. Ended up matching really well and the front isn't too dark.
@@BadlandIndustries Awesome thanks for the quick reply. I'm definitely going to do some research into the cost in my area to get it done once I get my 2024 truck.
@draconus003 for the money it's been one of the best mods so far. Winter didnt seem to need the heater much now heading into warmer weather I'm excited to see how it does.
I went real light on the windshield, something like 75%. The fronts I did I think 18% and 35% on the back factory tinted glass. Really light looking out and matches all the way around.
I can tell you right now that if your car uses a turbo that reciprocates the pressure and you put an atmospheric on there, you are going to completely screw up the truck. It will run like ass.

Have had my Colorado for barely 24 hours now and thought this was an interesting list. Thanks for sharing.
What do you plan to do first on yours?
@@BadlandIndustries mine didn't come with floor mats, so probably that. I also want to motorize the rear window - if I have time this week, I want to start modeling it up in CAD and see what I come up with.
@Hazdazos that would be cool. You'd have to figure out the latch though. Unless the actuator is the mechanism locking it closed
@BadlandIndustries yeah if you use an acme thread or similar, you can't (easily) back-drive it, so that would act as the lock. Plus the window is so small, there is little concern about someone gaining entry to the cabin if they did somehow break the actuator.
Blow off Valve Yes install and review

@grey1wa it's white body with black rims, grille, fender flares & trim peices
Do you have an install video for the rearview camera mirror?! Thanks for this video btw!!
It's coming soon
agreed
Please iam wait for that video 🎉@BadlandIndustries
Love what you did to the truck! And the tints make such a big difference what % did u go with all around?
I dont remember off hand. Lightest I could on the front, darker on the front 2 and lighter on the back half. It all looks super even. Honestly seemed to feel like the cab stayed warmer due to it. We'll see how summer does
Great video, thank you for the recommendations!!. Besides the Dome Lights, where else in the truck you used the LED bulbs you linked in the video description?
The reverse lights were lacking. Certain trims had incandescent bulbs, and you can replace those with led.
That LED in the step bumper is something I haven’t seen 💡
i use it all the time. i cant wait to hook it up to my auxbeam switch panel

I'll be installing the lift I've been working on here in the next few weeks. You guys will want to see how it turns out.
Just got my 24 colorado lt, getting Running Boards installed, done anything with LED lighting with them ? Thanks
My 1st mod was flowmaster 40 & resonator delete. The sound this motor makes at low rpm under load through the modified exhaust is very rewarding.
Have you made a video with how it sounds?
@@BadlandIndustries I've made a couple but the engine's idling, not under load, & it's Totally different/better loaded. I'll try to make one specif highlighting that.

Great idea for seat belt covers, what size did you get? small or large? Thanks
You need 2 of each. Take a look at your trucks buckles to see the difference between the two sizes.
Gave my Hummer H3 to my son - just got my Colorado Bison yesterday, glad to see your covering all my favs :D

Did you make a video of the rear view mirror /camera? It is really nice
Just uploaded it yesterday
Interested in the leveling kits. We have four of these trucks on order and we always add leveling kits.
We thoroughly tested the kit we're working on at Sand hollow last week. Pretty happy with the results so far.
Can you make a video of that rear view mirror camera ?
Yes I have its just not released just yet.
@@BadlandIndustries ill be waiting man 👍🏻
@@BadlandIndustries any eta?
@Geonade likely this weekend. I'm catching up on orders currently.
For your dash cam / rear view mirror. Where did you mount your rear facing camera? Did you utilize any of the HD vision cameras or did you mount the provided one somewhere?
I actually just released the install video a couple weeks ago. It's on the channel
Where did you get seat belt cover and door seal liner. Thanks for sharing
i have links to everything in the video description
got a 2023 canon at4 got ceramic tints first, 5% sides and back. 45% front.
That's dark man.
Where did you buy the silicone cover for the buckle?
I've got links for all the items in the description.
It’s cool to see alot of the options for bolt ons so early on.
100%
That Wolfbox Dual Dash Cam Mirror is legit, any chance you put out an installation video on that puppy ?
Infact I do have a video
Nice video.. exactly the kind of material i was looking for. just one question, i try to find the led lights you used for the interior of the truck but couldn't find them in the list, please help
did you use dome lights for the interior and reverse lights too? I apologize. I'm new to this truck/car world
They were some bulbs I had from some other purchase I think. They're 194 size but they're the flad chip style not the bulb looking ones.
love the mods.. just got my 24 Canyon AT4X and already working on your list.. thanks for sharing..
Hi. Great Video. Do you recall what percent window tint you went with? It looks just about perfect 👍🏼
If memory serves 75% windshield 30% on the fronts and 18% on the backs. Really works well and isn't too dark looking out
I would like to see an installation video on the turbo sound accessorie and the under hood light.
I have a video on the bov spacer. The under hood light was literally a 5min install and by no means difficult. Just run the power to the battery and it grounds out through itself where it mounts.
What are you thinking about on suspension lift? Are you making something yourself interested in finding out before purchasing another product. Thanks
yes i'm working on a kit that works differently than the other current offerings. stay tuned
Any update on if the blow off valve has become annoying or not? Just got my 2024 AT4, deep bronze metallic, 2 days ago. Screen protectors are gonna be a must.
I've got a full video on it. It's a gimmick for sure but I like it.
@@BadlandIndustries watched it last night haha. Been scouring your content for some good ideas. Really like what you got so far!
@dovahsween3378 you'll like the long term review video coming soon.
@@BadlandIndustries looking forward to it! Keep up the good work.
Hey man, thanks so much for your video!

AP
Yes I have the cad files and plan to work on this.
What light kit did you use for the bed lights? Was it plug n play? Link? Nice video!
they were from a silverado. it wasnt plug and play but some simple wiring is all it took to make them work. take a look at this kit amzn.to/48q26zK
Your video and truck are awesome! can you give more details about the 'Dash Track' Mount. I cant find any solutions for my 23 Jeep Grand Cherokee
I dont have one to test on but I'd be happy to look at it.
Hey, what’s the issue on the 3rd brake light? I think I bought the same one
Had some water intrusion into the housing.
I would like to see a video using that auxiliary switch for bed lights.
That too is pretty simply. I complicated it by using that blue switch but there's already a pigtail under the bed you just tap into. Add a switch in-line and mount the lights and run the loom.
First Mod on my ‘24 Denali was LASFIT LED BULBS, Interior, Reverse, License Plate, 3rd Brake and Cargo Lamp, PUTCO 3 function tailgate plug and play light bar, Vanish Tonneau Cover. Still want to do the tail lights but not sure what number bulb they are. And yes Blow Off valve install and review
I've got the blow off valve video. Looks like you've been quite busy.
Are you going to have a sprayed in bed liner? If so, which one?
I want to test raptor with a diy aggregate. I plan to raptor my colorado and I figured this was a good project to try out the product.
Great content. Have you created an install video for the wolfbox? TIA
Editing it currently. I made the mistake of going cheap with the hard wire kit and chased the issue for months. Got it sorted and video will be out soon.
Awesome! Thanks for the update. Appreciate all you do for us DIYers! Very helpful
where did u buy the vent mount for the auxbeam light controller ?
I make it. It's on the website.
Do you need to tune for atmospheric blow off valve? Will you run rich?
I don't believe so. I haven't gotten a code or noticed any difference in operation.
you said you put the same LED bulb that you used in your dome lights all over the truck? Where else did you use them? License plate lights? Fender lights? Where? You said you bought 10?
The 194s were a pack of 10. So the dome lights are 194, I did the reverse lights but I believe those were different. Fenders were their own housings but I wouldn't recommend them as I've blown all the LEDs out of that pretty quickly.

@@RossMalagarie yep nice and bright
Have you thought about wheel spacers?
I have them. Many people are skeptical about them. I'm still testing the spacers I have on my truck. I didn't want to recommend something that wasn't safe.
So this tow reciever kit will fit my colorado 2023 wt?
it should. there's some talk about the step brackets but if your truck doesn't have that then just cut them off or find a hitch that doesn't use them.
Where did you get the vent mount for the auxbeam switch?
I make and sell them.
Do you have a link to the window tint?
No, just find a local shop and have them do it.
How do I access the power to the ox switch that you’re using for your ditch lights?
I have a full video on that.
OT.....I'd like to replace my LED headlights to stronger ones. I have a 2023 GMC Canyon Denali, the AUTO place I do business with stated that the LED lights are sealed and can not be replaced. Is this correct? Thank You.
I've seen quite a few guys convert to led. They are 9005 bulbs.
where do we find solid front bumpers for our canyons
or front reciever
None are available yet as far as I know.
With the seat buckle covers, why two small and one large?
They are different sizes from gm.
I ordered these and you actually need 2 large for the front seats and 3 small for the back seats. You could get away with only 2 small for the back, because the middle seat isn’t hitting plastic, but I went with 3 so they all look alike.
@@RayD1234 good call. I was only concerned with destroying the plastics.
Would like to have a light bar for my 24 without having to take the entire front end off to install it.
Yea pulling the grille off is kinda involved.

First mod should be an oil separator catch can. Do an install video.
Great suggestion. I'm currently testing one
@@BadlandIndustries keep me posted which one. Did you have an install video?
Currently testing. Haven't committed to the can I have on there but I will confirm there is oil in it and I haven't driven very far.
all weather GMC floor mats. They were damn near free with the GMC reward points
The LED interior lights are cool until you go to the lake and every bug in the state is inside your tuck LMAO ask me how I know.
