Alright, just acquired a 1988 style GMC/Chevy Truck! Stoked because I know have a truck, and it's 4wd, the old man was going to sell it, but instead it was handed down to me :)

Needs some TLC which I'm working on, cosmetically mostly. Main question I have, I want to upgrade the grill to the 94-99 style because it uses the single light unlike the seperate low & high beam like mine. Has anybody done this conversion on these trucks?

Here's the grill

The conversion is fairly easy, its mostly just buying the right parts. You need a new grille, new fender extensions, new valence, new corner and turn lights, new headlights, and I think also a new wiring harness.

I almost did the conversion on mine, but I ended up liking the older style grille better, so I stayed stock. But if I ever did end up switching to the new style, Id keep the dual lights instead of the composite ones, I think they look better.

Oh, and WE NEED PICS!!!!!!! Xowner
