Replying to: guardian03 (Apr 03, 2007 4:41 am) I would suggest that if your new truck does in fact have the "mesh" sunscreen, make it part of the deal/contract that the dealer replace it with an opaque vinyl material so as to make it effective. That was an option I was thinking about to do on my own, but it would have cost me about $500 out of my pocket. The only reason I wound up with the sunroof in the first place is because I was told I could not get the "home-link" package. This is the overhead console with the lights and the buttons which you can then program to operate your garage door remote, your gate openers etc. That was a feature that I've had on several Tahoe’s now and thought I couldn't do without. Bottom line make sure you go physically check the sunroof "mesh" screen out and see for yourself if it works for you. Good luck!

Replying to: surveyorguy (Apr 03, 2007 8:16 am) All along we have been talking about the "Classic" 07 truck? There is a ton of time I've spent reading this thread that I'll never get back, not realizing it was the "Classic" 07 we were talking about! Jeezzzzzzz -mike

Replying to: jhansen27 (Apr 03, 2007 10:42 am) So the screen for clarification is only on the extended cab, the Crew-cab has the traditional cover? -mike |

Replying to: paisan (Apr 03, 2007 11:09 am) I like the earlier posting about using duct tape on the sunroof, I think he's on to something since the grey color of the duct tape would blend in pretty good with my head liner color. I should have thought of that before spending the $100 on the upholstery shop “fix”. Oh well! I would just advise anyone who is remotely thinking about purchasing a 06’, 07 or 07½ crew cab or extended cab Chevrolet to thoroughly check out the sunroof and the mesh sunscreen. The service manager at my dealership, told me that he has had several complaints about the “mesh” sunscreen at their small dealership. But Chevrolet told him and me that they weren’t going to do anything about the sunscreen at this time. That is my only gripe about the Silverado, other than that, it’s been a great truck. |

Replying to: jhansen27 (Apr 04, 2007 12:22 am) You may want to wait until you get back in the states before ordering a new Chevy, unless you can get that information on line somehow to avoid the "mosquito" screen problem. Good luck!
