Will this work on my single wall top???

I am missing one of the light covers, and the one I have is pretty yellowed. Are these the same???

If not where do I get some nice looking ones...I don't care if they are used or repro...
Thanks-

I don't have an answer for you, but I was hoping you could tell me the color of your Blazer. Is it a factory color?

Nevermind I answered both questions by reading through the captions on your pics.

I believe the dome light on the trucks and the interior lights on the blazers are identical. You can get just the lense if you like verses the whole assembly. The Blazers also offered an interior under dash light harness with lights mounted on either side of the under dash area for lighting you floor area.

I had the same understanding as Huck. Just about everyone carries the lens.

Huck, weren't the courtesy lights an option?

Huck- I have the int under dash courtesy lights, they are cool! I just need the lense covers one light in my single wall top....they don't look to cool, and I don't have them plugged in. Sometime I will get one of the chrome lights they offer, it would look nice...only problem is that they are 12.95 and I need two...starts to add up over time, eh? :-)

May check with some of the vendors. I know at the Pigeon Forge show Tim Christian had some of the chrome bases with lens that had some small blemishes in the chrome for a show price of $5. I got one, but should have got a few more. Thought I had a installed pic, but the pic was croped at the top of the window.

May also want to look for one of the rear view mirrors that has the lights in it, for when the top is off. Thought about it for mine but never did the install. Wire should hide under the window gasket for the most part.

I had a friend with a convertable 70 olds cutlas put one in his in the early 90's. I drove it a few times and the extra light does make a difference.
And yes their blazer is "Like A Rolling Dvd / Electrical / Stereo / Tv / Display Toy".

So Diane you may have to spring for the newest ones with the temp, compass, and lights. lol

YES...they are the same.
I replaced mine with a repro'd set from GMC Pauls during my rebuild.

There was one of the mirrors with lights in it on e-bay about 6 months ago. I was watching the auction but couldn't justify bidding on it at the time. I had a '94 5.0 mustang droptop with the lights in the mirror and that was very handy at night. Does anyone make those mirrors reproduction?
