64 gmc turn signals

is there a difference between 64 gmc and 64 chevy turn signals as far as mounting goes? ive been thinking about swapping the gmc for the chevy but i figured i would find out if they fit before i picked some up. i know the lenses are bigger on the gmc but i havent gotten a chance to really see what the actual hole looks like.

Re: 64 gmc turn signals

the hood is different on a chevy compared to a gmc. The turn signal--running lights and the openings are different. the opening in the front of the hood is different also. Kieth

Re: 64 gmc turn signals

I got my lenses from LMC, went with the white ones instead of the yellow ones on my build. They were really only run 1 year but I think they look a lot better.......Kieth

I think the white running lights look better and no cops have stopped me about running them.

Here is a link to the installation of the parking light lenses, had to use different rivets to make them look like they were supposed to.

just click on the next thumbnail to see different views of the lenses and the rivets.....
