I found out about Merricks Garage, he makes some cool square body items, one being a set of mounts to retro fit 05 and newer 3rd row Chevy seats to an older Blazer. these are very well made and also Made in the USA!!!!

Found a really clean set of 2015 leather seats for $250, and they installed and look great. now my kid has shoulder belts!!




They install and remove like the factory 2015 seats.

had a spongy brake pedal last fall,I checked the wheel cylinders (not leaking), I bled the system and its was still not feeling correct, I installed a new vacuums booster and master cylinder this afternoon. re-bled the system and all seems good. Chevy did not make it easy to get at the nuts holding the vacuums booster on that's for sure!!! I also put some better head lights in. those flood LED's before are worthless.

Default new dash pad

A buddy ordered and couldn't use a dash pad, so I bought it and installed. my OEM was roached and had been painted. over all it came out nice and was fairly easy install. there is one lower left bezel screw that doesn't go through the pad, but I can work on that later. I purchased a new trim piece and used the OEM Silverado emblem. the last pic is one of the old pad. It was way worse than the picture shows.
