Calling Doug (tcb1) and of course anyone else in the know. I have been wanting to fit a set of Unitys/Appletons for ages...BUT, I want them to have a more custom look rather than utility. Here's the problem I have, the template for fitting spotlights to our year Trucks has them sitting to high on the pillar making them stick out a bit to much past the line of the Truck (see marcrsRX pic) I realise the reason for this is a practical one so that the internal handle clears the dash.

Now for myself having the spotlight sitting lower or even on the cowl would create the desired effect, and checking on Unitys site they don't list a cowl template for 71 Chevy but they do for GMC 66 thru 73...Now unless I am very wrong & confused indeed, my Truck is a 71 C10 and Unity do a template (#27) for cowl fitting on a 71 GMC,

as these Trucks are practically identical? especially around the cowl, A pillar & Dash this would have the internal handle coming in thru the dash to the left of the instrument panel and just above my AC vents. So am I right or am I right???
