Ash tray

Is it just me, or does it look like both low and high beam headlights are on in that brochure picture? Factory 4-Hi mod?

Yeah it kinda does, when I go back and look at it!

I was having plumbing issues, Not me, my house, and I am trying to catch up. When did the ashtray problem deviate to PIE, That was Kimbles Green Acres (not sure I spelt it right) game.

Took the ashtray out to look at it. Definitely looks like a spring goes in it. Eventually, I’ll be headed to the salvage yard to get one out of a junk truck.

Sorry for the thread derail.. I blame that dude with the Cadillac front on his dually. Been a while since I had an ashtray out and I've worked on a bunch of different stuff since, but it's probably a V-shaped spring with a small coil at the point; typical ashtray spring arrangement. Don't quote me on it if I'm wrong though. I can't honestly remember ever having one of these ashtrays lose the spring.

Those artists and the liberties they take in the name of marketing.

the 90--93 trucks.

What's different between 88-89 and 90-94 inside?

I'll take the blame. This time.

What's different between 88-89 and 90-94 inside?

They are same "generation" interior but many differences based on exact year. I'm sure I'll miss a few.

1988-1989 bucket seats had no headrests, can't recall if the bench/split bench were this way.
1988-1990 and many 1991 models were "moonie" gauge clusters, not the needle style. Some 1991 models got needle gauges.
1988-1989 door panels were styled differently and had smaller black square window and lock buttons and bezels (if power window/lock equipped)
1988-1989 switches, buttons, controls (radio, A/C) were black

The interior colors changed a little after the first couple years, too, but I don't have specific breakdowns on this. There was a really dark gray, a grayish blue, and a tan that had a lot more brown in it than the 1990-1994 tan - it was more of a light caramel color.

1990-1994 (Silverado) door panels are the fully upholstered design with the larger gray button bezels and gray buttons (except for SUV's which got interior trim-colored bezels that were shaped different to allow for 4 window switches and the power mirror controls). The other controls - headlight switch, A/C, etc. went gray to match.

1992-1994 all gauge clusters are needle style, though some were tach equipped and some weren't.

Seat features evolved a little bit as well. For example 1993 extended cabs there was a two lever system for fold and slide to enter the back seat. 1994 combined it to a single lever for both functions.

Interesting, so there's a lot more differences on the inside then there is in a 95-98, very interesting
