Went to the local pick-n-pull...
When I decided to re-upholster my dash, I discovered that my ash tray housing had been totally destroyed by the previous owner. (He had totally removed the ash tray/lighter assembly to hide an alarm control box in there).
Just based on my LMC Truck catalog this is what it would have cost to replace everything. Ashtray housing = $79.95 Ashtray = $29.95 Lighter = $12.95 Lighter Housing = $12.95 Lighter Retainer = $3.95 for a total of $139.75 Yesterday I went to the Pick-n-Pull, found a complete assembly and got it for $6.99  You can imagine how stoked I was!

I went to the pick-n-pull here in San Jose on Monterey Road. They've usually got between three to five '73-'87's, including blazers and 'burbs.

The one her in San Antonio usually has 50-75 at any given time. I guess we are really lucky.
