Looks great. I'm about to do one on mine. 2 quick questions.

1. what is that little round thing sticking out of your left ac vent?

2. where did you get that heater/ac control cover and those chrome *****. That is rockin.

96jimmy- Ive never seen the older style dash in person but it seems to me that you could hack-up nicely a kit for the newer Blazers. I even have a whole kit minus the mouniting brackets which if your radio already has them I think it would work. At the very least you would have a small opening across the bottom, not a full din.

MRJP- 1. Is a air freshner 2. The HVAC panel is just a sticker I got on ebay, search s-10 panel. Been awhile since I bought mine. They made/make them for the headlight panel to which I want in plain white, not flamed up like the only ones Ive found recentlly.

ok so where can I get a double din dash bezel? I need a tan one and don't have time to go picking through a bone yard to find one. Tried searching for S-10 wharehouse but can't find them.

poh- Well its really easy to take out of the truck but thinking in my journeys I have never seen a Tan interior on a 4 dr newer than 02. Maybe just me. But looking a your sig I see that you have a trailblazer edition, I think if im remembering your interior a Charcoal dash trim would look sweet! and those are a dime a dozen everywhere just dont pay more than 80 or so shipped if need be.

well ...... since I had planned to body color match the dash bezel and other parts, charcoal may not be bad.

Thanks Its all about taking your time.

One word on a cluster be careful replacing it or dont even do it at all. Ive seen some bad cases of a new cluster being needed and yada yada. I dont wanna scare you away just saying. I like the stock cluster just wish the outer ring was easy to get to and replace/paint.
