What was included in Highlander package?

There is a Blazer for sale on ebay that they claim is a CST Highlander (ya all can look it up yourself). However, the front seats aren't original and the rear seat has been recovered to match the fronts. What else was there to a highlander package except the seats?

I look for fun. I don't have room or $ for another one right now. My next one will be 2wd (real or conversion).

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

I saw the same thing on ebay, and asked the guy if it was all just cst badges and highlander hype. No responce. Highlander seats are plaid, I am not sure what else goes with that package, but with both the cst, and highlander packages you would think the thing would atleast have a/c.

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

It does have a picture of the glove box sticker showing the highlander option. Not sure what all it includes though.

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

There were 3 highlander packages, A,B and C.It looks like this truck had package A which was the cheapest group, plaid seats basically. Package B got tilt steering among other things and C got everything in A and B along with A/C and tinted glass if I remember right. Someone on here has a pic of the highlander brochure.

Sounds like whatever made this Blazer special by having the Highlander package is gone anyway.

Question Re: What was included in Highlander package?

It says Blue Highlander PLA on the glove box door, maybe it just means the seats? because everything else is the same!

That's what I was thinking too.

It looks decent from a distance, but overall, the truck scares me. Did you notice the blue paint over the drip rail deflectors and it looks like they spray painted the door panels with the body paint. Also, notice what appears to be a patch job from a cut dash and clearly the engine isn't original.

Exclamation Re: What was included in Highlander package?

I emailed the guy to ask if the truck was all cst badges and highlander hype, because it didnt look right to me. He wrote back, and said that I should read the glove box sticker and learn something if my pride didnt get in the way and if not, to just go away mad, but just go away. Watch this seller folks. He is full of poison!!!

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

This thing lists the cheyenne package, not the cst. Were they listed the same or am I missing something?

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

I was wondering the same thing about the Cheyenne Package. I thought that was a pickup only package.


Special-K – Woodgrain side trim was a CST thing. I don't know if it was a Highlander thing.

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

I thought 69-71 were Custom sport Truck and 72 became Cheyenne Sport Truck. Which progressed into the 73+ line being Cheyenne a step above and Silverado being the top

Re: What was included in Highlander package?

could be. I really don't know. Mine is just a basic truck with AC & side moldings so I just don't know. My first K5 was a CST, but back then I didn't know what it ment and there wasn't any such thing as internet forums so I wasn't smart enough to pay attention to wat the glove box said.
