Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

I just installed my console last weekend. Basically just like what lowdown did. It definitely added style to the interior.

Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

I just installed long overhead console in my 05 Extended Cab Silverado. It has the slots in the roof panel for the tabs to slide into. I did not have the piece to go into the hole in the front for the screw to go into. I carefully drilled a hole just in front of the square hole that is in the roof panel for this purpose. I then used a self tapping screw to secure the console ( make sure it is not so long as to hit the roof skin). I have not hooked up the map lights but after reading these posts I will make a connector to pull power off the dome light and the sheet metal will be my ground.

I want to install HOMELINK does anyone have any info how this will work and where to find one to fit in the garage door opener of this console. Thanks Roadking

You don't have to remove the dome lamp.

Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

Well i FINALLY finished my install last night. I think i had every difficulty i could have possibly run into. First of all my truck didnt have the wiring harness to clip into, so that meant i had to tap the dome light. next, my domelight didnt have the ground wire it was supposed to have, so i had to tap my own ground. next i had a short with the gauge that was killing the gauge fuse, and as a result the truck too. i think i ran into every stupid problem humanly possible. Im very happy with the end result though, even my homelink system appears to be working but i havent tested it yet (the light works on it). If i can find a spot to safely and easily mount a sender, i will be installing an oil temp gauge next the trans temp gauge - i already ran the wiring for it.

here are my final pictures:

*edit* - i guess this board doesnt resize 5mp pictures lol

Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

OK guys, I'm trying to install the short overhead console & my 2006 extended cab 1500 is not pre-wired for one. On the console itself, the wiring harness has 3 wires. They are gray/black, black, and orange. Does anyone know which one is for power, which one is for ground, & what the third one is for?

Re: Overhead Console Install Instructions

Does anyone know if the install for this on the NBS single cab is anything like the write-up for the OBS single cab? Looks to me like the dome light would have to be removed or relocated.. Has anyone done this to an 03-05 standard cab truck??
