Side Marker Lights
I put some new front turn signal lenses on my 69 C/10 yesterday. After I finished up, I pulled one of the side marker lights to see if the bulb was out. Well, it was out because it's not there. I've owned 2 Blazers(71&72) and a 72 K10. I had NO idea that in 1969 the side markers were just...reflectors? No wiring harness, no holes in the back of the reflectors. Was this an option or simply wasn't a thing in 1969? I also noticed there is no door jam switch for the cab interior light...was that an option as well? Never too old to learn huh?

Re: Side Marker Lights
Lights were not added to the side markers until sometime during the 1969 model year. My '69 produced in Dec., 1968, did not have them, but I have added them. The original legislation required lights or reflectors. The regulation was changed to include lights and reflectors. I believe the new requirement went into effect Jan. 1, 1970.
The lower trim level trucks did not have door switches for the dome light. I don't know if they were a standalone option, but I doubt it. |
