havns3 10-08-2006, 08:55 AM i think duratothemax has converted to denali he is on the electrical forum alot you might check his profile mwswarrior 10-08-2006, 08:16 PM A huge help in this type of conversion is Mitchell Collision Estimating & Reference Guide. It'll give you all the parts, numbers and prices as well as a decent (but not perfect) idea of how long it will take to replace/install. deadlyman 10-08-2006, 09:06 PM cool thanks Riccas 10-10-2006, 11:23 AM Denali conversion is the best mod for our trucks, IMO. I'm going to be doing one soon also. I have a parts list and know where to get everything you'll need. I'll be writing a DIY on the subject with loads of pics. I'll PM ya aswell :) -- Rick deadlyman 10-10-2006, 04:53 PM does it work with the 01 style trucks nekkidhillbilly 10-11-2006, 01:50 AM 99 up it will work on a gmc :) excludes the ck body styles (obs) Riccas 10-14-2006, 12:35 AM I have a Denali console i was going to put into my suburban. Changed my mind. Its brand new never installed complete with trim pieces, arm rest, and 6 disc cd player in excellent condition. PM me about it :) mojoe01 10-14-2006, 01:35 AM I am also going to do a conversion soon, but I am opting not to do a console swap. Instead, I am sending a lot of my factory pieces out to get them refinished with the Denali blackwood pattern. I am going to have 16 pieces all together. This is not cheesy stick-on graphics, it is the real deal! Included is the dash bezel, steering wheel, console lid, grab bar, switchplates (front & rear), and more! All together I think it is less expensive on average than acquiring the GM Denali parts. I will post pics when I begin the install and provide install notes. Believe me, you will be blown away when you see this! mojoe01 10-23-2006, 01:09 AM Here are the pieces I have installed so far. I have more that I haven't put on yet... DURAtotheMAX 10-23-2006, 09:56 AM awesome Ron!!!! :ro) erock53 10-23-2006, 11:11 AM I love the pictures of your Denali truck conversion. Where are you sending the parts out to be refinished. What are they charging you? How does this compare to purchasing pre made molded parts? Riccas 10-23-2006, 01:25 PM I love the pictures of your Denali truck conversion. Where are you sending the parts out to be refinished. What are they charging you? How does this compare to purchasing pre made molded parts? I want to know this too... i already did a denali console, but i could get my grab bar and switches done. Let's here it Ron :ro) mojoe01 10-24-2006, 09:58 PM I got them done at autodynamicswest. These pieces are not matched exactly to the genuine Denali pattern. They are a little darker than the original GM Denali colors, which is really not a problem. I really admire the quality of these pieces, they have very rich color tones. The only thing I don't personally care for is the high gloss finish. I am going to take these off my truck and sell them in the for sale forum. I will probably buy a new set that is done with a matte finish, but I am being told the lead time is 3-4 weeks out. Anybody interested in buying these off me let me know... they are listed for sale here: http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?p=1371703#post1371703 coldLBZ 10-25-2006, 11:07 PM Where did you get the instrument cluster, that's what I've been looking for, is it set up for diesel? mojoe01 10-25-2006, 11:39 PM I converted my cluster with an overlay from jpcustoms. Yes, it was made for diesel, specifically for the 06 LBZ with the manual tap up and down shifting. coldLBZ 10-26-2006, 01:25 AM Is it possible to get the overlay in km/h and the other canadian units? Is the overlay still bright at night, my dad installed an APC overlay in his 89 chev and now you can't read the speedo. coldLBZ 10-26-2006, 01:28 AM Also, how did you program the DIC, or is it photoshop trickery? mojoe01 10-26-2006, 06:18 AM The JPC overlay is not quite as bright at night as the original, but I wouldn't say that it is gone at night. Its just a little dimmer. The DIC text is real, but as I have posted in other threads, it is not a permanent change. It is just a random message that is placed on the class II bus and directed towards the cluster. The message only shows until you press the trip reset button. irishtornado 11-13-2006, 07:25 PM Is it possible to get the overlay in km/h and the other canadian units?
