Ah, I didn't realize they were sealed beams for 88-89, interesting. Mostly I'm just tired of the plastic clouding up over time and glass doesn't do that, or at least not nearly to the same extent lol. I would love to do the H4 housings, those look like they do a good job on yours! But I'm also looking at the LMC ones now, and they look pretty good too, and not as expensive as I thought they'd be. Think I might pick up a set and go grab some brackets at the pick-n-pull.. There's quite a few early model GMT400s there so I'm sure to find at least one of each side. Thanks for the info!
Okay, this is a long shot I know but... I've been mulling over a dash swap in my truck. I LOVE the 88-94 dash style, always have, and it's probably the only thing I miss about my old 93 RCSB lol. I like the older digital HVAC, for one thing, and the boxy style. I know it's an involved process to do the swap but the biggest thing is, FINDING the parts in decent enough shape to even want them. And get them in the right color. I don't care about having to re-wire stuff, I think I've pretty much proven my worth there
So what I'll need (
in green is stuff I already have):
--- The complete dash itself, cluster,
HVAC controller,
3-piece stereo, switches, vents, and other parts...
--- Left and Right door internals and panels with door/window switches
--- Manual transmission steering column, wheel, multifunction switch, etc...
Feel free to add anything I may have forgotten to the list. From what I've seen of guys who have done this swap the other way (old to new), it's not hard at all because everything lines up fine. The wiring will be a mess but like I said, I'm good with that.
PS, if anyone needs an 88-94 digital HVAC controller, I have 8 of them
they all work, most of them still have working lights, buuuuut, most of them also have broken mounting tabs lol. Six of them will run 4-speed systems with the dual-plug resistor, two will only do 3-speed systems.
I also have four working radio amps for the same era, two work with the 5-band equalizer systems, two only work with radio heads with the built-in Bass/Treble buttons.

Also found this gem while digging around in a 94 Burb... It still plays too!
