Those are pic's of my trucks. I put the 2005 door handles and tailgate hardware on the 93. It has an Escalade front clip. Basicaly cut the holes in the doors to match the NBS handles. It was'int hard to do.
On the 96 I installed Kodiak door handles. You can just see it in one of the pictures.

Not too hard you had to click the correct spot of the pictures to get them to download full size then upload to the net and post the [IMg] link.

Re: Elephant Ears on a OBS
Shopkins.......you didn't have to trim any of the outside plastic of the new mirror to mount it to the door right? All you had to cut was the backing plate to fit inside the door?

Re: Elephant Ears on a OBS
yeah those do look nice, I think on the OBS i like the dodge ones over the GMT-800 tow mirrors. If I ever decide to blow 2 grand and lift my truck ill definately be putting a set on my truck.
And when I called Dig i misread the date thought it was 08...
