If I need a set, i try to find a 89-91 Sub in the pick a part. I figure they have had the least exposure of these trucks, and would have the best chance of being in good shape. Aside from not being able to put in the 1 screw on the front, that's the only problem I have had. I've done it this way on my last 4 trucks.
I found out the hard way the glass is different. Someone decided to help themselves to the stereo I had in my '87. I had vent glasses from my '77 Blazer, and it wouldn't work. I ended up having to buy a glass, as I needed it right away. The top of the glass is shorter, and more rounded on the newer trucks.
