Custom cab?
How can I tell if my cab was custom or not? The sails are gone and windshield trim too, if it ever was. I have a deal for the windshield trim and sails but don't know if I should get them cause my truck doesn't show any signs of custom trim.

Re: Custom cab?
A custom cab had horn ring on the steering wheel and a big back window. it may have also come with a cloth seat and vinyl trimmings. Nice truck, btw.

Re: Custom cab?
BBW is not part of any of the Custom packages (which are more than one, btw). It is a separate RPO.

Re: Custom cab?
Going from memory, someone correct me:
Custom chrome (front bumper/grille), custom comfort (seat upholstery, pass armrest/visor/door lock), custom trim (side trim), custom cab (sail panels, windshield trim). Mine has all but not the custom side trim. |

Re: Custom cab?
Each "Custom" option is listed individually in the two pages below. Notice the Custom Camper option is a package of multiple custom options, and then some. Never was anything called a "custom cab".

Re: Custom cab?
Thanks OEM4ME! That's good stuff. Now, would it be wrong for me to add these "custom" items to my truck? I love the sails!

Re: Custom cab?
Not at all. We're doing it on my sons truck. Just can't say it came from the factory that way.

Re: Custom cab?
A custom cab is always a nice touch in my opinion. I am going to be doing the same with mine.

Re: Custom cab?
You will need the bracket piece that attaches to the cab that the sail rear slides over.
