Should work. Blazer doors are just Truck doors with the top window frame cut off. Thats all that GM did. The glass is the same.

Don't quote me, but it seems like I read somewhere that you couldn't use the one piece kit on a blazer because of the lack of support for the window glass. The portion of the frame at the back of the door that a truck has, but a blazer doesn't, works as a guide and stabalizer for the window glass. Without it, but glass becomes very unstable until it reaches the top where it will engage the front door framework.

Goose has a point there, but I would think that with the top on there would be enough support since the rear part of the window frame is molded into the top. And if the tops off, there's no reason to have the windows up anyhow. Just my 1 and a half cents worth

it seems like it would work fine with the top on, and with the top off I would never have the window up. But it is an expensive kit to buy, if I only "think" that it will work. thanks for the input guys, I'll keep you posted if I decide to try it.
