Super nice. Can I get a few good pics of the billet grille head on?

Also, I use ddmtuning for my newer cars, but didnt know they sold sealed beam HID applications for these old trucks?

[qu1cks1lver56]

Never saw your post man, sorry. Yeah I'll take some pics of the grille. And ddmtuning doesn't have sealed beam HID's, I bought some H4 housings to put em in.

H4 6000k HID's, 35W, hi/lows for the top set

Put some new stainless (according to guy at parts house) mirrors on tonight. The fitment of them sucks, but at least I don't have rusty mirrors. Wish I woulda never got rid of the stock mirrors.

Will try to remember to take a picture of the grille straight on. And now I'm thinking of trying to keep the gauges stock looking and snatch up a camaro tach, rewire my sending units, and hard wire the cluster and get rid of the printed circuit.

Missed a nice camaro cluster with 115mph speedometer on ebay for $26 today. Looking at other, more expensive ones, gonna try to hit up a junkyard soon.

[qu1cks1lver56]

For those that are wondering, my HID's are in these housings.

Just bought some projectors, retrofit coming soon.

TTT

watsup?

[qu1cks1lver56]

Lol projector pictures are getting uploaded now.

Here's what I did tonight, not so thrilled about it.


Wrapped the s10 blazer overhead console in suede, was pleased with how it came out, then i pulled the headliner out of the truck, and i realized how poorly this thing fits against the headliner, and it's a little long. Wish I would've done some test fitting before I covered it.

and here's my camaro tach someone was asking about in another thread

[kikkegek]

man do you have a slow connection!

any luck on those projector pics? I am really interested in the build and final look from the front and the light patter/beam....

come on man! dont keep us waiting!

[Pop's C-10]

what year is that overhead out of?
