My favorite part about these GMT400 and even GMT800 trucks is how modular they are. They made so many configurations that you can pick pretty much anything you want in terms of options with minimal modifications. For example I just put in a plug and play Yukon Denali cluster in my 2001 GMC and now I have a 120mph speedo and a trans temp gauge!

They did put over head console in extended cabs. It's not super common but they did the console is different to. 94 up only extended cabs. I put one in my 94 there's a video on my channel and also one explaining the different consoles. Along thoue in 99 they ditched the pickup style consoles and used the suv ones with the older lights. I did not no that when I made the second video on it.

Hay today I ran across yer videos for the first time, gotta say I like what yer doing. I bought k 1500 7 yrs back its a 99 also an have been doing restorations an making it my own ever since.There for a couple yrs I was on the look for middle bucket seats which I found at pick a part but did not get them.Bad mistake on my part, they are tough to find an to this day I keep my eyes an ears open even though satisfied with what I did. An that was get rid of the 60/ 40 mid seat an behind driver side front seat put A passenger front seat minus arm rest. This has worked out great leaving room behind passenger front seat an 3rd row seat plenty of room an easy access to put what ever I need to put inside. I'll tell ya after time you find ingious ways of changing out parts without spending a ton of money.This upholstery shop wanted $500.00 bucks to do head liner. What? Back to pick a part fount one excellant shape, $14.00 . Had to go show it off to upholstery shop, guy comes out I tell him ya 14.00 bucks buddy. Any how it's been a lot of fun an a big learning experience. Putting in New transfer case in Monday & the whole power train will be new. So keep up the good videos I'm sure I'll be tunning in often. Aka Highway.

I really like the suburban. I bought a 96 ext. cab in 98 and a co-worker bought a new 98. If I recall right he had a long overhead console. Don't know if someone ordered it that way or not. Loved my 96 without the optional 3rd door. Super quiet riding truck. No squeeks... no rattles. To bad I sold it at 185K. Should have kept it. Bought a van for hauling my dirt bikes and then modded the heck out of the truck for a daily. I traveled for work so I bought a 08 with only 16k on it. Now it sits at 230K.

95+ ext cab trucks could come with the full length overhead console, generally on well optioned trucks. the only difference with tahoe and suburban consoles is to forward portion was slightly different shape without controls for rear HVAC, it was just a smaller delete plate instead.

As a detailer, you may guess the carpet was a trigger for me. :) In lieu of the power washer method, please consider a small carpet extractor. (Bissell Little Green is a good model, and you'll love it for the house as well.) Drying time is much shorter, and on the stubborn stains you'll appreciate the extra oomph. You can also get a brush for your drill or DA sander that will really agitate and clean the carpet (and seats for that matter).
