Hi Folks,
Couple of quick questions on my 99 K1500, Z71, extended cab.
1. Has anybody had any luck with removing the oxidized scum from the plastic headlight lens ? If so what did you do.. I don't like the crappy looking yellow oxidized film.
2. Do I have a cabin filter in my unit ? if so where is it located for replacement ?
3. How do I disable the daytime running lights ? I have seen post's on pushing the dome over ride button, etc, but I have had no luck ?
4. How do I replace the lamp in the pass door ? Does the lens cover just pop out or what ??
Thanks Much !!!1

The way you would check for a cabin filter in your unit is to drop your pants look really closely at your unit, if you see an old dirty filter by all means replace it, its a one size fits all piece.
Sorry I just had to, lol.

To temporarily disable the DRL you push the dome override 4-5 times in rapid sucession, as fast as you can.
To replace the bulb in the door you pop out the whole assembly, not just the lens. Put a new bulb in and pop it back in.

For cleaning the headlights.. I just bought this kit from ckresto.. you might get away with using plastic polish but this kit includes somewhat of a liquid plastic to reseal everything when youre done.. Looks real nice. I used it on every plastic light cover on my truck
