interior dress-up

Hey guys i was wondering what are you guys using for interior accesories. Like billet column dress up kits, shifters, headlight knobs, etc. I want to dress up my truck but i dont want to waste money on things that dont fit.

Re: interior dress-up

I got mine off ebay head light pull knob, turn signal, tilt, hazard, and shifter in aluminum, but my wipers and heater switch are hidden but they will be moved by the head light switch with billet knobs the turn signal lever is made for a 73-83 column so I cut the end off and shoved it the slot

Re: interior dress-up

why did you have to cut the end off? i thought it was the same for all years till 95. also what did you do for windshiled wipers? how do you turn them on and off.

Re: interior dress-up

ohh i did not know that. see i knew i would of bought the wrong thing. i think i might just buy the tilt lever and the hazard button made from billet and buy a new lever for the turnsignals and put the billet cover on it. what are pulse wipers? how do i know if i have them?

Re: interior dress-up

pulse wipers are intermittent wipers...when you turn the wipers on at the first position either it's going to be intermittent wipers where the wipers go on and off by themselves, or it's going to turn the wipers on low...
