Replaced my drivers side mirror with a non busted one that Josh :smile:hail:smile: "found" at work when he was repairing an Envoy. Even has the auto dimming glass like my original...but I kept the glass from mine all the same.

Speaking of "found"... I found a really good deal on a Pac OS-2C module, which came in today, to replace the crappy GMOS-01 that has partially failed on me. (and not the first one either :mad:) So I told my TB, if it behaved and got good MPGs the rest of the week, that I would be installing this, this weekend. :biggrin:

I was just thinkin, "man those are pretty sweet, although i think i would've gone with silver to accent the vents..." :raspberry: I like the stripes though, helps set your truck apart from all the "racing stripes" out there... (I laugh out loud to myself everytime i see an old kia or ford fiesta with racing stripes down the hood) :crackup:

Drove it around for work and then on the hottest day of the year so far it left me stranded in a parking lot refusing to start. Starter wouldn't even click. Finally got it to start so I drove it home, parked it, and drove the Camaro the rest of the day.

Not sure whether to blame the ignition switch, the starter, or the heat somehow. With the way a few other things acted I think I'm going to blame the ignition switch first. It's still the original (as is the starter) as far as I can tell.

Okay I think they look sweet but I agree. Those are dodge stripes right.... so why are people putting these on GM vehicles and Ford vehicles? I feel the same way all I see is dodge whenever I see these but it is your truck.

Oh man I had a interesting day because of that module lol be careful hooking it up because I blew two fuses from it not stating what's positive or negative. Just a heads up man! Does work really good tho, no buzzing no flicker and works like a charm :thumbsup: after the headache of hooking it up right tho lol

I just checked out his thread. He has nice hood stripes also, and good prices. BTW how much was the fender stripes if you don't mind telling?

DoWork Product Listing and Pricing - TBSSOWNERS.com Forums - The #1 TrailblazerSS Dedicated Owners Forum

IMAG0096.jpg

Yea Todd is the go to guy over there.. he quoted me $8 per fender.. so $16 total.. don't know if that was a special price or what, because if you go onto motocityvinyls website, they sell them for $12 a piece... pretty much all my "SS" related items (inlays, brake calipers, vette flags, and now fender stripes) are from Todd.. then the regular GMTN decals are from Stef and Jeff...

Just didn't like the ride with 22s.too rough. Might get ss 22s. Next summer, thinking I'm going to stay with 20s and lower it for better ride. Ooh yeah and some guy offered me full retail for my 22s and his stock 20s ;-) had to take that offer

:cool: Thanks. I've had it for a little while but I'm thinking of changing it to "JRTAHOE"or "TAHOEJR" since I have always considered the TrailBlazer the smaller version of a Tahoe but I'm still :undecided:

I wish I could but I cannot really help on that...heres the reason. One side that goes to the relay is only one way because of how the clips go on so that is fine no biggie. the other side is VERY poor with finding which side is which. I complained to the company and told them they are awful for that and that they cost me way more money then I should pay for some as stupid as color code what is positive or not. both sides are orange on it and they work both ways. Honestly its a trial and error I really wish I can tell you which is which but I cannot due to them being the same damn color and no hints to what is what. I'm sorry man, if anyone on here has installed that thing and knows the difference from which is plus and minus then please chime and call me the idiot and show me because I spend too long on that thing lol Maybe they can fix that for future models or make it nonpolar also!
