Well I've had some bad luck recovering my seats. Went to a shop that I've used a few times and had good luck but new owners took over and my seat covers were not up to the level this truck is going to be built to. So I took it to another guy that I heard about from a friend and he said I have to recover the whole seat (minus the dark red pleats). No saving the junk work so I guess that will happen this summer sometime. Meanwhile I mounted these skirts to the base of the seat to finish off the base and a place to mount the switch. Doesn't matter if I damage the vinyl I guess. My guy said he will make it so the vinyl doesn't bunch up in the front like it does now .

Not sure if I'm going to put these into the back of the buddy seat but I bought them just in case. I hate not having drink holders. But they might really change that vintage appearance.

I think im going to skip the cup holders. I cant get myself to like the look. Well I want to keep the grain look in the metal on the seat skirts so that means I can't fill any holes in them. So I have to keep the plaquard that cadillac put on all passenger side skirts because it mounts with screws. So I took it and sanded off all the engraving so I can have new engraving put on for my truck. I'm not sure what I'm going g to put on it. Any ideas from you guys?

Interior by Rod, Body by GMC

or GMC (large on the raised portion) and Super Custom following the shape of the emblem (you could also invert the emblem and have Super custom on the bottom)

or GMC ENSpired

I was thinking kind of what you said with the gmc on the reaised and super custom in the bottom. The enspired is funny too lol.

I agree on GMC on the raised portion and SUPER CUSTOM under it. Cool idea!

Had some of my dash together so I took a picture of all the lights. I'm loving the green

No I just used led bulbs. They look sharp and use less power.

I found a small fuse box online and I purchased it. I'm going to add my gear vendor, heated seats fuses into it and whatever else I've added.
