For my 2012 SLT, I got a Sony X5000 head unit (for CarPlay and the reverse camera) and a cheap tailgate camera off Amazon:
Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07PW6T1PL?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Overall, I’ve been quite happy with the setup, but I’d probably choose a different head unit in retrospect. The animation speed is slow and if I use the center-console USB connection, I always have to plug in twice before the data works. (It works from all other places, but something about the cord baked into the car must degrade the signal just enough or something.) Not the end of the world, but annoying.
I’ve been very happy with the performance of the camera, though!
I bought the truck used so it came with a rough country leveling kit on the front. I added a 3” lift block to the rear I purchased on Amazon. The front was higher by a little bit and was exaggerated when I towed the boat.
I did a quick search on Amazon 2014 gmc sierra rough country leveling kit and found it a few items down. lift level kit $150
I did the rear blocks in the driveway, I have done the front on similar coil over trucks they are not fun but you can do them at home, will need an alignment after word or the outside of your tires will go bald

I bought one of these a couple years ago for my 2018 SLT and really like it.
The one the company sent out initially didn’t line up correctly with the threads on my truck, but they were very easy to deal with to get me the correct one.
It doesn’t get quite as good signal as the OEM antenna, but I’m ok with the trade-off getting rid of that monstrosity

I have a 2014 with projector bulbs. I put LED bulbs in. They work great. Cutoff line is very distinct and easy to adjust. I don't get flashed by oncoming traffic.
The stock projectors do great with LED bulbs.
I believe these are the ones I have...
This is correct, however, if you buy one of these you can get wireless Android Auto on your otherwise wired connection. Works fantastic on my 2018.

I haven't noticed anything yet (3 months & 7200 mi). However, I had a Dodge Charger years ago that had several black plastic pieces that faded over time. This stuff a few times a year and it was good as new.

I got this for the top of my console. It fits with the safe in there (I have the factory safe too) and prevents items from being directly on top of the safe door.
They sell just the little clips on amazon cheap

I googled "dexos-d" to see what it was and the first search result was an entire AC Delco kit with 7 quarts and filter on Amazon for 80 dollars.

I bought some automotive weather-strip from Amazon when I swapped my BakFlip from a 2020 to a 2021. This is what I used and no leaks after 1 year.
I used these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07N6Q7TN1?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details
Less than an hour to install, perfect.
I have no idea what I’m looking at in that link but it could be right! Haha thank you.
Looking on Amazon I wonder if this generic set would work too? https://www.amazon.com/Piece-Flush-Mount-Black-Assortment/dp/B00PP7XU1E/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=truck+bed+rubber+plugs&qid=1625198823&sprefix=truck+bed+rubber&sr=8-5
Won't hurt to leave it on, but you can get a protector made of glass from Amazon. I put one on mine and can't even tell it's there.
I’m waiting on a spod. I think that you would probably get annoyed with it hooked to fog lamps because it’d be dependent on your headlight switch and high/low beam settings. There’s other options like this that I’ve used before as well. It looks good and makes you only need one pass through the firewall.
I just put these on my 21’ AT4 and I’m pleasantly surprised (because of how inexpensive they were). I wanted that Raptor look, and Go Rhino makes the RB20 but these ones look just as good for half the price.

I have a 2005 but I just installed these low beams and I also got the same brand different model for high beam. They work great so far. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07X86WFKW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_.ST5FbXFY3GJX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
From my experience, the LED bulbs that are designed to replace the OEM halogen bulbs are generally not worth the effort. The beam pattern will never be quite the same, and in reality they're not giving off any extra light or projecting it in a better pattern.
Instead, find a complete replacement headlight that was designed for LEDs. Assuming that your truck does not have LED running lights already, something like this should work. I've seen similar models that work around the OEM LED DRLs, should you have them.
I got the Superchips flashpaq. I must have got a good deal off Amazon because it was 299. It's now 400. The air intake is: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KSZ7J3S/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_am2kFb92QHZV3.
Check for the year you are buying. All together might be more around 7-800
Assuming your lamps are not hazy, then these are the best for the low beams.
