General Chat Chat about all things Blazer (and related vehicles). Off-topic stuff should be in the lounge, and all mechanical problems should be posted in the proper forum.

Finally did it...

You can take them off 4dr's or 2dr's.

Open the glass, there are 3 screws in little grommets unscrew the screw; pull the grommet..

I painted them off the truck as well as the bow tie.

I would not attempt to paint them on the truck.

That looks great! Nice match too! How'd you pull that off?

Like the bowtie too...

However I'm not a fan of Altezza style lights, but they go well with your truck, some just look tacky.

Thx.

I went to advance auto checked the book for the exact paint I needed, checked the numbers in my glove box and got the paint.

I could not stand the original lights some of the lights are tacky but I wanted some silver in the rear since the is some in the front.

As I stated in my previous post you cannot take them off on 2drs. They are part of the glass piece. If you want to remove them on 2drs you have to remove the entire piece of glass.

And I have to agree with the gaytezza comment. I'm not a fan...but it's your truck, so as long as you like it thats all that matters

Definitely looks good. I wonder why they didn't come painted to match the vehicle from the factory.

I actually said I thought they worked with his truck... It's guys with Silverados who put the Altezzas on, especially the boxy pre-99 style... YUCK.

Ummm... I don't know.. they just do lmao.

Nice job again btw.

They did on the Bravada! LOL I do seem to remember them being painted on some of the higher trim level trucks as well. It is one of those things that GM did to change the look around a bit for different trims.
