What have you done to your Silverado ZR2 this week? 🛠️

2500HD question...What type of fuses do I have? I look at these things and they all look the same...I need to use a fuse tap and need to know what type to order. Thank you in advance for this dummy question.
I'd have to look, but from the OM, there's a couple sizes. I'd assume micros and minis for the most part. Micros are tiny. Mini's are small but have semi-pointed blades.

The standard (ATO/ATCs) you see in trailers and generic fuse blocks are fairly big, they're easy to tell apart from the minis not only by size, but the blades are almost square.

There are cartridge fuses, where the body is like a cube, but I don't expect you'd be tapping those. Most OEs use cartridge fuses instead of higher amperage Maxi's.

That pic helps...thanks!!
 
Just in case you haven’t had an MXT before, make sure you change the setting to use the mic as the speaker instead of the head. (Or set it for both)
Good call- was aware of this already- one of the reasons I chose this setup. But I appreciate the heads up regardless.

Where are you looking to tap? There's three fuse panels?
 
Finally Installed a Range DFM module - so much better now.
Removed the front flow-tie and hyperdip it satin black, and replaced the rest of the chrome emblems with black versions.

How did you remove the flow tie
 
Very carefully using plastic pry tools.
It has 4 tabs holding it in, but you cant get to them from the back side.
Just when it feels like its going to break, it pops out, lol.
Thanks. Would be neat if they offered a light up one.

De-badged!

Well, everything except the 6.2L on the hood scoop. Not sure how I will get that one done yet since I cant use the eraser wheel on it. Everything came off pretty easy except the two on the fenders. They left an outline that I may or may not have gotten completely out yet. Ill look tomorrow when I its out in the sun so I can see it at different angles.

The only remaining badge is the ZR2 in the grill. I have a replacement on the way. I also plasti dipped the flow tie up front. Not sure how much I care for it yet.

Edit: 6.2L on the hood now gone and gave her a bath. All nice a clean now.

She got a bath. With the ceramic and my new pressure washer/DI spotless setup washes take no time.

Applied Adam’s Graphene Glass coating to the windows and mirrors. If it lasts a year and works, this stuff is the shit, easier to apply than RainX and probably similar price if you don’t have to apply it every wash.
