Ohh, my bad. Those are the stock ones. I don't consider those "euro" so that's why I didn't figure he was talking about stock ones. I consider euro tails to be altezza style or LED style ones...

Ah yes, I see what you mean now.
If you wanted, i could check out the GM part numbers on my rear lights so that you can check if they're available over there? Somehow I doubt it but you never know until you ask? Did the Canadian models have the same lights as the US ones?

it's already been done, and you can get them here-@ the dealer (stupid price though) or on eBay (got mine for $90 US). you just need to rewire the truck (minor).

and our TL's are NA (that's North American) not US or Canadian. so yes, we're all the same over here.

now those are some part #'s i'd be interested in getting ahold of. (hint, hint) it'd be interesting to see what those pieces are worth over here.

funny how it's set-up on your truck, 'cause that's pretty much how i was looking @ setting it up (figured a newer F-bird/Camaro reservoir would be a natural fit).

I just took a look at the interior pics Dave. Your interior is pretty different then ours (switch wise). The light switch is totally different...and looks really bare compared to ours lol. The 4x4 switch is in a different spot, and whats the one button above the 4x4 with the little light below it for?

Will have a look to see if there are any part numbers for the headlamp washers, reservoir etc. I guess they must go through a relay or something that only allows power to them when the headlamps are on because that's the only time they work.

Sisk - yeah I remember when I rented a Blazer in the USA back in 2002 the headlamp switch was on the same panel as the dome override/panel lights dimmer, it's a bit of a mystery why they decided to do things differently for the UK models. Personally I wish they'd kept the transmission shifter on the column as well, never have liked floor shifters myself. I'm getting used to the idea of it being where it is now though. I wonder what the thinking was behind GM's decision to design things the way they did for the UK models, would love to hear from anyone that worked for their export department & was involved in such decisions?

i doubt that's ever gonna happen.

they're all in hiding, so you non-NA Blazer owner's can't yell @ them for not making enough exports available.
