What did you do to your AT4 today?

[gemarsh]

Lease is up next month on my ‘21 AT4 and still up in the air about keeping it and making some mods or getting the new model. I’d like a new truck, but I don’t want to give up all the options I have now and I’m not completely sold on the look of the new model(although the headlights look insane).
In a perfect world my truck would look like this and was wondering if any of these custom parts are available or if this is just a fairytale.

That truck looks like AI is all over it. I do like how it designs the side mirror lights to match headlights.

Here is what AI designed for me, a blue lego gmc sierra...

Today’s modifications included the following. One cheap one not so cheap.

I installed my iDash today...took about 30 mins total. Just want to be able to monitor the regens. It was my birthday present. Oh...btw, there's 2 Philips head screws on the backside of the A-pillar holding the grab handle that I didn't know about. I don't remember seeing that in any of the videos I watched.

Thanks for letting me know. I am tackling that tomorrow. Anything else you had issues with?

Pretty straight forward. Here’s a pic of 1 of the 2 screws on the back of the A-pillar.

If memory serves me correctly you don’t need to remove the grab handle from the trim piece…that’s probably why you don’t see that mentioned in the install videos. Just unbolt it and pull the whole trim piece free. Drill the hole for the cable and route the cable through the hole when you reinstall.

I have the AT4X....it has the tweeter in the A-pillar. So you have to remove the grab handle or unhook the tweeter. It was easier to unscrew the 2 Philips head screws.

Definitely you had to disconnect the negative terminal on the battery though right?

Absolutely...1st thing I did was disconnect both negative terminals on the batteries!

That makes sense. My reg AT4 was simple. Almost too simple!

Banks iDash installed this morning. Happy Easter. Putting that A pillar back in almost defeated me. Probably spent just under an hour and a half. Hope everyone else had an easier install.

A somewhat successful attempt to black out the tailgate emblems on my AT4 using Hyperdip. The GMC and Sierra emblems came out OK but I’m not having much luck with the 4 on the AT4. I pull off too much of the hyper dip when exposing the red in the 4. Tried twice today, I’ve had enough, will try again tomorrow

I really like how it makes the red on the GMC pop.

That's why I just broke down and bought all the emblems in black. Can you score the inside of the 4 prior to pulling it off? Also, how many coats are you putting down? Maybe putting it on thicker might help? Just throwing out some ideas.

Two light coats five minutes apart, and then 6 heavier coats 20 minutes apart. I’m thinking that my heavy coats may not have been heavy enough thought.
