Re: Side markers

The mid 80's-mid 90's van marker lights offer a nice clean look unless you are wanting to keep it "cheyenne correct".

Re: Side markers

The deluxe side markers are still available from GM for about $35 bucks each. They are starting to get scarce. Last fall I bought 3 sets, one for my clean up and two sets for future use.

Re: Side markers

Most of the ones being made that have the chrome trim easily become detached when you least expect them to after a while. Pressure washes speed this process. If you see them getting loose and can catch them before they become road kill objects find some adhesive to rescue them.
