Headlight configuration?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My 84 truck has a single light above the signal light on each side. And a friend of mine also has an 84 but he has the stacked dual lights. Whats the reason for this on the same year model truck?

Just a trim level. The cheaper trim leveled trucks (custom deluxe etc) had the big single headlamps and the silverado trim level had the 4 headlamp setup.

Thanks, I thought that might be it but wanted to make sure.

Here is a link to some information on our trucks. I was looking for trim levels but there is also a link to the "differences" in years as well. 84 was actually the first year the lights, as mentioned, were optional. (according to this source)

There is so much information about these trucks I sometimes forget to check my own bookmarks from this past year!
