I didn`t do the whole sound system, just updating the head unit to @pioneercaraudio to give better audio processing and wireless Android Auto and CarPlay and installed a backup camera.

I love full basic setups like this. You hear and experience music more, the way the artist intended.

Some people ask why our doors are tall. We spec`d the doors to be .5` taller than legal driving height. This makes the shop feel open when both doors are open all the way and if you want to pull in a crane truck or dump truck you don`t really have to worry or think.

I worked at a place that didn`t factor this in and a lot of work had to be done in the sun or rain due to a simple oversight that is too costly to correct.

@gmparts_acdelco makes a performance brake rotor for towing and severe duty applications. The diameter is the same as stock but the metallurgy is significantly different with a higher carbon content.

These rotors handle heat way better and grab awesome with @akebono_aftermarket pads. We get these parts @lordcoparts which is nice because there`s no specialty parts used for a brake upgrade.

My favourite way to upgrade brakes is to just put bigger replacement parts from another vehicle or trim level. Our 300S is a 6 cylinder so it has an upgraded suspension but small brakes and 20" wheels.

Ordered the @gmparts_acdelco 14.5" big brake police rotors, Geotech calipers with @akebono_aftermarket pads from @lordcoparts

We got almost 2 inches bigger on diameter, and a rotor with a high carbon content. You get overkill front brakes at a reasonable price and they`re easy to bleed and service. And they look great with the factory 20" wheel.

New car prices are ridiculous right now. And most people are finding out when their vehicle reaches 5 years old, manufacturers stop supporting/ updating the tech. Instead they want you to buy another vehicle.

I`ve seen a rise in demand for head unit upgrades, but you have to be able to integrate with factory features like steering wheel controls and factory back up cameras and sensors amd provide reliable phone connection like Android Auto / CarPlay.

I like using brands like @kenwoodcaraudiocanada @pioneercaraudio @idatalinkmaestro @metraelectronics and PAC Audio to deliver seamless integration and reliable performance.

Client brought their AMG GTS for simple lighting upgrade. Got to drive it and it shows how enjoyable a dialed in chassis with 500HP shows you can have a fun and sophisticated car and moves efficiently.

I like cars like this because they`re classy and don`t look for attention. And it`s usable power, no drama. Just smooth and quick.

Super grateful the amount of small businesses that gives us the opportunity to upgrade their fleet vehicles. All of this is referral, no sign, no lowest price, no cold calling to get the job.

It`s just trust and patience that makes this happen.

Been diagnosing more malfunctioning devices and you`d be amazed how often it`s a factory ground. This is why I`m so big on cleaning the metal and spraying with a corrosion inhibitor like @fluidfilmusa to preserve the connection.

Had a Chevy Colorado I found the ground behind the engine air filter caused the blower motor to no operate. You don`t know how they design these harnesses because production speed is a factor in design.

Doing this will ensure functionality and potentially save a lot of money.

The engineers that designed the GMT800 were really thoughtful. Lots of space and the intention for owners to be able to service with basic hand tools. We swapped the radiator, serpentine tensioner and belts with relative ease thanks to the engine bay layout.

Which is amazing since new trucks are larger and taller, but have less space under the hood? 🤨
