What is the difference b/w a grill for a single headlight truck and a dual headlight? Mine has dual headlights and i'm looking to buy a grill from a truck that has single headlights. This is for an '85

Thanks, -Nick

It may not have the tabs to hold in the parking lights.

I have a new repro one for an 85-87 that I ordered and never used if you are interested. Just let me pack up the bumper guards first.

i was going to buy the one cochino12 is selling as long as it will work...if it doesnt have tabs, can you attach the light some other way?
anyone?

I just bought a repro grill for my truck for $27, brand new. It might be something to look into. I have not used it yet, so I can't vouch for the quality of the part.

anybody know the difference? slonaker, where did you get yours from...i see LMC doesnt have a repo for teh dual headlight (i thought they were all dual headlight until now)

I got mine from mrtailights.com.

It's ok for a driver. Definitely not a GM part. Since my trim was bent, I just got a billet for a bit more. (about $79 from summit)
