Very nice, I kinda miss my old Sierra. I kinda like the older body style a little better than the one I have.

I like it a lot, especially the way you've used O.E.M. parts to customize it. Welcome to the club! I call it O.E.M. CUSTOM!

I love how your truck looks. I can defintely tell you take great care of your truck, it doesn't even look like it's 10 yrs old and with the OEM parts it really gives it a unique look.:great:

Mike like I said before your truck IS hot rod custom, I am a huge fan of billet and aluminum and those Budnik wheels are just something you don't see everyday on trucks. I love the mixing of the different GM models, and before I saw your truck I never knew the 99-02 trucks would accept the 03-06 tail lights but I learned something new when I saw that. I know for a fact that you have to confuse people with what year your truck is, but I think I would get confused when ordering parts for it. I couldn't remember what I was ordering it for, tahoe.....or sierra.,...........or Silverado or all of the above. Great work on the truck, and keep up the great street style even though it is lowered. :lol:

your truck looks really good, they say imitation is the best form of flatery and since I already copied your cassette cubby, I was wondering what modifications you had to make to your wiring for your taillights. I just ordered an 03 set for my truck and want to make sure I have everything I need when they get here thanks for the help in advance.

Thank you,That means a lot to me,As everyone knows it take Alot of Time,Work and $$$$.For the 03' and up Taillights,there is one more light bulb down at the bottom. Because of this there are 2 ways to fix that small problem.The 1st is to buy the wiring harness for the 03' taillights,you can pick them up off of E-bay or The dealership.Or 2nd is to hard wire,for the extra bulb.For me I bought the harness from the dealer.The cost was about $14.00 per side.The price may be higher.Then all you have to do is unplug your harness and plug in the new ones.It took me all of 5 mins. per side and I was Done.But if you do the hard wire for the extra Bulb let me know I have a link that shows how to do it,step by step.Hope this helps you out.Let me know.Later Be Safe.:glasses:

Mike you've only been on this site for a couple of months, and your already corrupting people! :lol:

Zubbiez your tail lights look real good, now your truck looks like a newer model from the back. I think that's neat when you can swap out different vehicle parts, that were never supposed to be on there in the first place and make them fit perfectly. Great job you guys, and I bet we will be seeing more people doing this mod and maybe upgrading to the NBS LED tail lights as well. :great:
