Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Hi, Chuck! Really love the steering wheel in your truck. Where did you source it?

I'm planning to do the same set-up in my '71 GMC

Very nice! You used a GMC wheel emblem for the horn button, right? I have a few NOS ones on the way I was hoping to use.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
That's right I found them on eBay. They have the right convex shape to fit over the chevy emblem on the cap.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Thanks. I'll probably run it into the fusebox throughout the firewall somewhere that theres a hole already. I bought an inline fuse today..I already have a switch. Started installing a stereo w/bluetooth in my Colorado that I'm giving my boy so I didn't get anything done on Choncho.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I have one similar too in Choncho. But mine plays cd's. I finally got the rest of the stuff to finish it up and it works great. I called the boy w/the bluetooth. He said it sounded great. This one doesn't have a cd in it so its shallower. I like it.

Digging the new lights Chuck. I need more details about the install. I think it would be a cool addition to mine. I steal all the ideas I can from guys like you. i.e. the hidden radio, that worked out well by the way.

Thanks. I haven't been on here as much. I'll have to take a look at your stereo install.
