I have been adding turn signals to her this weekend. I bought a switch and some dual action 3/4" led lights . I made some dual light brackets for the rear and singles for the front. They will be park and turn signals once I get them wired up. The current tail lights are on with the headlights and act as my brake lights.

Way back when your truck was new there was an aftermarket turn signal switch called "Its It" and this was being reproduced in the 1990's, maybe you can find one .

It looks similar yo your Grote 900 series switch now but more vintage .

I've taken my Wife to breakfast in the truck the last three Sundays. Yesterday I actually took a picture on one of our stops. We loaded up a couple decorative stones a bag of dirt and a few plants for the yard. We parked out in the north forty of the parking lot only to come out an find someone parked right next us.

**Ol Blue K20** · 06-01-2021, 07:40 AM

Looks good!

**special-K** · 06-20-2021, 09:18 AM

They look great!

VWNate1 · 06-25-2021, 10:52 AM

....Well worth the wait .

The proper hub caps often are the final touch to an oldie .

I don't always use the correct year model ones but I know I like factory hub caps above all others .

**special-K** · 06-26-2021, 01:23 PM

Lookin' complete now.
