Dual iDashes are the Info Answer

00:00 the Silverado gives you next to no information about your truck I’m coming from a ram I know I know mistakes were made but the RAM gave me everything trans temp like every little detail I wanted to know so it kind of pissed me off that the Silverado didn’t have everything I

00:21 wanted to see and yeah like you can put up like oil temp and coolant and deaf is on a different freaking setup because it’s on a different whatever gauges Banks gauges that’s what I’m doing we’re getting all the info all the details and I got the Dual pod Coster because one’s

00:40 just not good enough let’s install it today’s video is brought to you by lethal garage synthetics if you guys didn’t know I’ve been an AMS Oil Dealer for over 6 years and personally run AMS oil products in my car from engine oil trans fluid fluid rear gear brake fluid

01:35 could do that too you just have to go to AER Force gauge and get their pod cluster that mounts into that little defrost vent thing still functional uh and these gauges will slide right on in their setup and I honestly think the bank gauges are better than the AER Force Ones so uh for this install

01:53 initially we have to get up in here and pop this cover off I’m just using a small flathead screwdriver just comes right out we got to pull this bolt off and we also have to run cables so it is an ODB plug so we want it to look as clean as possible so I’m thinking this whole

02:17 thing kind of has to come down so that way we can get the cable out and luckily and we’ll have Kyle come around when we get to there but this side panel just pops off right here so we have full access to how we’re going to run these cables down make it look super clean and

02:30 nice um but it’s a super simple project like seriously if you guys have never done any modifications to your truck this is I don’t know four of 10 uh the only thing that you’re going to have to be careful of is we do have an airbag up in here so something that we have to be

02:47 mindful of and again this thing’s only held on with two bolts looks like that’s 10 so we’ll get the right tools pull that off drop this down and we’ll walk you through how to do that so you don’t have to worry about deploying an airbag prematurely so if it’s a GM and all their normal Glory a

03:14 simple body tool it probably has plastic plastic Clips with little metal mounts hello probably never get that back in there but yeah just a little one single metal clip which is normal going into where are you oh just right there the metal not even so the big reason why they want you

03:46 to do that is we’re and I didn’t mention this earlier but we got to drill a hole for the wires to go through so outside of that they do provide you a step bit they do provide you the new bolt that’s going to be threaded through here through the banks pod cluster now keep

04:06 in mind they have the single and the Dual this is the duel and this should thread yep right into there God this bolt seem so freaking long oh yeah I guess it’s going through a thick part so there’s really not that much thread sticking out but that’s going to be that’s going

04:27 to be fun to tighten there’s not really instruction for this so let’s just uh poke oh yeah it is kind of a tight bit or do this right outside the truck do it right on the leather do it right on the leather C I have a feeling we could probably get away with it like right here oh yeah oh that’s thick

05:04 how big of a hole you want well it’s got to be big enough to pass all of those through that’s good I you’re never going to see it might as well go you know go bigger than smaller I thought you were going to say go beg or go home and turn around just mean so that’s really it that’s all we

05:37 got to do oh I guess you want to come around here and we’ll so this panel here is going to be where we need to remove and this should be the last panel we should have to remove for this install I think I’m going to get in here get that again these are usually held in place with just these plastic

06:00 push Clips oh yeah but that’ll give us access in here and I think we’ll be able to yeah it looks like we’ll be able to run the cable fine just where’s our OD it’s right here oh it does fit nice so there’s a little metal hole right there oh it’s the wrong way that’s not

06:42 cool so obviously these gauges is going to make use of the ODB Port they do make y Splitters and stuff like that for those of you running like amp steps anything like that so those can still be functional um but outside of that it’s really getting the wire up I think we can just tuck that right in

07:02 there and then I guess now we’re just well that’s a lot of cable we’re going to have to we’re going to figure out how much we need before we can kind of snap everything back in place my guess I don’t want to mess with anything around the airbag so wait do I do that backward I drilled

07:40 the wrong I drilled the wrong one didn’t oh no I didn’t no no no so get you kind of started actually do you want to get back on the other side so you kind of you can just grab onto this handle and force that back into position and then under in here you’re just wrapping

08:12 around look at that would you look at that toil like a Target okay so I guess I could just Mount the thing right that ain’t going anywhere oh it’s fishing now so I guess you’re going to have an extra screw now oh crap did I make sure the airbag was out of the way yes it’s not

08:54 there we’re going to do battery swap now for those of you who have a gray interior truck I think they all are do I wonder if they make up wait I think they I think some are black the ultimates are black that’s you’re talking Denali bro that’s what I’m talking about it’s so

09:19 High Country this also fits the Denali dog oh well that’s true you’re right again I know I’m just just giving it to you today did you make the paint to make that match did no that one didn’t go there oh this one Daisy chains off that I forgot how that went 8% so I don’t remember which I think that

09:45 for one was the top so does that one have two plugs in it like this uh they both do okay then you have two masters correct so this is if you daisy chain another one of these so if you have three gauges this one’s going to go down to that one wonder if I can just little too late to tuck that in there

10:17 now it’s so nice having like a really solid mount versus like the Camaros it’s all loose and you turn it on it already Works probably regret doing that cuz now I won’t be able to get this one in so I’m going to well I should highlight I messed around with these and kind of set them up how I

10:54 wanted why can’t I plug this in am I going the wrong way no that’s oh cuz I’m I’m an idiot I’m trying to plug the six and the four yeah don’t be me let’s see see I got force that back up there my OCD is going to years later this one oh nice I tightened it t like a tiger freaking

11:47 mic e is that it’s not even hard it got chopped in so install on the gauges pretty straightforward let’s go oh God my alignment standing outside the truck was terrible they’re like at I got to my OCD is going to drive me nuts so now it really comes down to setting up the gauges to how you want

12:08 them to read and it’s pretty straightforward so you got a main menu that’s what this arrow button’s for and then you just have a ton of options so um they have like pre- setup stuff you can go into alerts and if you’re interested in the logging there’s so much more that these will do that I’m

12:32 never going to use but if you want to get to the actual gauges so you have the layout so you can set it for two all the way down I think it’s eight eight gauges so I have it set at least I don’t know what I have this one set at this one set at seven so I have this

12:52 one set at seven and the bottom one is set at 7even but you can see your Boost PSI and your turbo so I’m dri obviously it’s going to be different depending on what truck you have I have the 3.0 diesel so I could see my ECT uh which is good to see your um I mean the load the

13:14 I don’t know what torque percent like I don’t know what that’s actually going to be I could see if my regen is on or off down here I have my speed also set just in case it should be the same like because it’s pulling from the same data that your dash is pulling from

13:30 um your de level mine’s actually pretty low my fuel level which is pretty low right now um but overall you can go into these gauges and really change and have it output whatever data you want that’s the bank gauges I think they look really good they give a ton of information

13:48 probably way more information than I need I don’t know why I splurge for the two but why not I think it just looks cooler whatever you know it’s just money can’t take it with you um but you Banks Gage just simber simple install you get all the data points that you’re missing

14:03 uh from the current Dash like you can see right now like I have coolant temp my fuel battery and oil temp and that is the maximum setting that you can get and you have to like scroll up and down for uh where is it where’s my death there there’s the DEA fluid reading and

14:26 all that stuff so now I can have it all up here and I can actually clear this up and actually clean up the look of my Dash now that I have those gauges in place so that’s that let me know what you guys think uh in the comments below thanks for checking out this video

14:41 obviously this is still a new truck to me so there’s tons of Silverado content coming for those of you guys who are part of the channel watching for Camaro stuff still tons of Camaro stuff coming I promise six gen and second gen maybe even first gen here pretty soon so we’ll

14:55 see till next time guys see you on the road
