I do not know if they fit a Chevy BUT I bought a set for my 1970 Mercury Cougar XR7 and they did not fit. The problem was that the light socket stuck out further in the back and cutting the back out of the panel would be required. I sent them back.

trimming seems to be the norm on the lower cost headlamps like this.
Those would in fact fit a GMC, but you'd have to buy 2 sets as indicated in the auction.

I recomend that no matter what kind of headlights you have... even wall mart special headlights will light up a butt load better with relays.
