Hello all. I have a right hand drive 98' Chevy Blazer. I think these were made for the Jap market originally (hence right hand drive, like here in UK), but a few hundred made it here through our UK GM dealers (car brand called "Vauxhall"). In the last 5 years we have hade Chevrolet appear here in the small car market, but these are re-badged "Daewoo" cars i.e. made in some old French banana republic Country, in a clearing in the jungle.

Oh well, the main thing is I'm loving having the US made Blazer.......

I went shopping today, new exhaust on order, clear front "blinkers" and new transfer case selector switch. Now to tint the windows or not? Will it look cool or just wrong, what's the general opinion?

I have both the tinted and untinted Blazers and prefer the tinted on the darker colour Blazers.
If you want any parts then just give me a shout as I have loads of spare for the RHD Blazers.

Thanks "dobe" will shot you if I need anything. Mine's dark blue, and now booked in for dark tints of Thursday apart from front windows as it's not allowed any darker than factory (must be a new European law)...
