Re: what interiors fit..

Other than the door panels and seatbelts, everything should swap out, I'm pretty sure, from 73-80.

On the door panels, yours are 73-76 if the doors are original to the truck. Post a pic of your panels and we can confirm this.

Re: what interiors fit..

here is a picture of mine. ive seen some that cover the whole door. jus curious of what these guys made them of and if i can install some trailblazer,jimmy,s 10 panels. far as my bench seat goes, i would like to replace it with some buckets without drilling any holes in the floor of it. i notice the gas tank would be in the way if i installed anyway. any ideas, pictures, or fabricators who have done this would be helpful info. thanks a mill

Those are 77 and up doors. So, you can either use 77-80 panels as a direct bolt in, or use 81-87 panels if you swap the interior door handles/cups too.

Re: what interiors fit..

Nobody on here that I know of is running Trailblazer, Jimmy, or S10 door panels. They would not be close to the same, and all would require some sort of modification and maybe even fiberglass work. As for the seats, unless you make some brackets for the seats you want to use, nothing is a direct swap.

Re: what interiors fit..

'88 seats will fit if you take the risers off the bottom. No bracket fab necessary. I put the original sliders on the '88 seat. Only had to drill a few extra holes, most of the original holes lined up. Had to make a few minor "adjustments"
with a 4lb hammer, but overall it wasn't too tough. I re-dyed my door panels, and put a $99 dollar cover on the dash. For a few hundred bucks, my interior looks almost good as new. Pics below.

Re: what interiors fit..

I personally like Coverlay which is why I list them. I normally stick with a product I like.
