New to trucks in general!

If you zoom in on the last pic after full sizing it by clicking on it,you can see my OE Silverado badges. Also in 95 GM put the 60 seat on the driver's side and the 40 seat in the passengers side.

I don't think GM made a 40-20-40 seat setup. I bought one years ago for my WT, but it was a custom seat and cost me $1800 I think. I ended up swapping it for an extended cab seat plus $900 cash. So I did get 1/2 my money back. It just didn't look good in a regular cab truck. Ii had 60-40 in my 97 Silverado,but swapped out those for bucket seats from a Tahoe. Put a center console front a 2004 Tahoe, and built a custom floor shifter and the section for it. The bucket seats are from a 95 Tahoe.

That's AWESOME. I actually really like that center console. Probably more than the one I have. That's some nice fab work man. Idky I like the bench/ 60-40 / 40-jump-40 seats. I feel like.... It would make a decent napping seat lol

I also want to check/replace all the major ground wires.

OH! Here's a question. Does anyone know if these have "chipped" keys? I don't think mine came equipped with keyless tli didn't see an A0U(?) in the code sheet. I plan on installing a remote start and the audio/electronic guy at my job just told me to find out if it's a chipped key or not. I also want to replace the door lock and ignition cylinders and would like to only have 1 key. But it isn't IMPERITIVE. I only got one key with the truck and it's short and worn to heck.

I found the seats at a swap meet at a car show. When I realized they were the same fabric as my OE seat, I jumped on them. I had to have them. He also had 2 consoles but they were from a GMT 400, and I really like the GMT 800 console. So I went to the salvage yard and found the one I have now, but only got the back section. I didn't want the front side BC I didn't want the console crawling up into the dash. The other welder at our shop said, you need a floor shifter, and I said YEAH, I'm going to build a custom Chevelle horse shoe shifter. He was talking about a B&M shifter,but I am very happy with the Chevelle shifter. 1st to 2ed is a slap shift. I built all of the shifter except for the handle. That is the only part that I bought. I made everything else my self. The plexiglass indicator another coworker made for me,and the back light Silverado emblem. I had Him make the Silverado emblem from the one on the side of my cab. Man that shifter gets a lot of attention at the car shows once people look inside on my truck. I always pop my hood to show off the polish work on the engine, and. A lot of times they don't even look inside,but when they do, here comes the questions. I love it.

The keys are not chipped. The newer the trucks have passlock, but that is a anti theft system on some 97 and up tell trucks. 98, and 99 classic had passlock. It shuts off the fuel pump relay if the lock cylinder and key don't match just rite, but there's no chip.

I wish the car scene was like that around me. I make decals/ big media vynil / wrapping for a living so I'm sure at some point I'm gunna redo some stuff. Possibly even wrap the Truck.

The keys with the little resistor thing? I don't think I have that. This is the only key I have for the truck.

Yes, that is correct. These keys don't have a chip. They are just a regular key. Passlock is a box on the lock cylinder in the steering column I think. I didn't have it, and I'm glad I don't. I do have a Viper alarm with keyless entry but no remote start. The keyless entry is a real nice option. I use that every time I get in it and out of my truck.
