The lights are dome lights for a 1 series truck, and that is the air unit w/ the intake vent facing towards the rear

They are the Factory mounts - just with a little re-working done to them

70chevc10 · 01-21-2005, 12:10 AM

awesome

quick question for ya though. the seats are from a newer silverado/tahoe.. im jsut curious if they fit good. liek are they too high too low? or did u need custom brakets? thats kind of what i plan to do as far as seats in my truck.

longnlow72 · 01-21-2005, 01:23 AM

your headlights look blue when theyre off but dont show up blue when theyre on, are they any kind of special lights? are they legal? my truck will be blue eventaully and i think they would be another nice touch. any info is appreciated
-Ben

68w/sbc406 · 01-21-2005, 01:49 AM

they are proly HELLA conversions or something similar, then you just stuff a PIAA super white bulb in there and you get that blue reflection with out the blue head light, plus plunty of light. if you want blue light too, you can go with the PIAA extreme bulbs. or HID

K5KRAZIE · 01-21-2005, 02:34 AM

You really need to stop making these posts! Your making my trucks feel bad, OK maybe just me feel bad. After seeing that Suburban you did this one blows me away again!

N242MUCH · 01-21-2005, 04:39 AM

ok i have a question for you . i have a 1969 3/4 ton 4x4 long bed. i would like you guys to restore it for me with 6in lift spring and 3in body what do you think it would cost to do this i know you can not give me a number with out seeing the truck and doing the work becouse things come up and happen in the build. it would be interesting to see just how close to the build bill you are when done. thanks scott

u know anything else about this? or whover built the truck know lol? u know how much this will run me?

*rickspickuppart* · 01-21-2005, 08:24 PM

A set like the ones in it are 60.00 (4 H4 bulbs and 4 Housings) - if a person was interested in purchasing them them I could explain the mods that are required to them (install a relay and trim one of the mounting ears on the bulb housings ).

i have hella conversions in my truck. i didnt have to do anything to them they just went right in. since you have a chev you only have to buy two. they are bout 60 a piece, do they have baxters auto parts buy you? they should have them there. they come with bulbs but they wont give you that blue reflection. the PIAA super white (i think they call them star white now) blubs give you a nice bright white and run about 65 for the set. so that is about 185 and you can have some nice lights. and to get full voltage to them and make em even brighter you can buy two relays and wire them in and have some nice lights. you can see for miles.

longnlow72 · 01-22-2005, 02:11 PM

ill have to check into those, thanks for the info guys

*Sublvr72* · 01-23-2005, 02:15 PM

very cool jimmy! not digging the grill too much, but to each his own...

do you have any more pics of the seats and console?

*rickspickuppart* · 01-24-2005, 11:22 AM

He is right the chevy ones require no mods and the ones I have are 35.00 for a complete set and DOT approved
