Truck looks awesome! It's definately something you don't see everyday. I'm getting ready to go with the black on black, but don't worry, I'm in Tampa Bay, FL!
BTW, did you have to change the whole head light assembly or just the turn signal?

Thanks,

Brian

the process is described in a post on the forums ... search for cleared headlights ... it sounds a lot harder then it is

Believe it or not, this truck was used in The Matrix Reloaded and was not even available on the market...

"It took a dedicated team of Cadillac engineers 18-hour day shifts just to convert Escalade EXTs from Chevrolet Avalanches with custom-built metal panelings. The story is the same with the CTS, which was actually run as a prototype during the filming sequence."

Ragz.. do you have any tips on how to clear these suckers out? I just tried doing in this morning and nearly amputated my finger with a screwdriver. The silicone in my assembly is white and very sturdy.... should I remove all the silicone or just warm it up enought to pry it apart?

ragzemcee did you take the light out of the turn signal. The one pic with the lights on look like there is no loight there now. Cleared my headlights but now the factory bulb looks ghetto when the lights are on...any info would be great

Thanks smoovlatino,
I did not know that and I found that very interesting. I'm sure that was good advertising for Cadillac, and probably very expensive to say the least.
