Changed out my side markers

I haven't had rear side markers in many moons, so the truck looks completely different to me now. I installed van markers in place of the stock ones. Big improvement IMO.

Looks Good!!!!!! I like the look it gives our trucks. I prefer Deluxe on my Longhorn. I found my Chevy looks better with Std. The Van Markers are a great improvement. I love the side mirrors on your truck. Those are the ones I am installing on both of mine.

Thanks for the compliments. I love the mirrors too, but they're sort of a pain to see out of....kinda defeats the purpose....lol

cool thing bout those later van lenses, they put out a butt load more light.
TJ, on the mirrors, I installed convex mirrors off a big rig, they look stock till you look at the glass, and you can see EVERYTHING in them.

If I rember right you get them off of 86-96 chevy vans. I am running them on my green and white. And I agree with andy they put out alot more light. You can get the front ones pretty easy and you can also get them new at the local parts store. I have a problem of finding the red ones. All I find are cracked, scrapped or really weathered. I have only found 1 decent one at the pap. Does anyone know where the red markers can be found new other than gm?
