Sunvisor question? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**N2TRUX** · 08-22-2004, 06:11 PM

It's raining and I am frustrated because my stereo project is at a standstill. I decided to look for other things I want to upgrade on my 77 Cheyenne.

It appears that the passenger side sunvisor has been replaced but the drivers side is original. I guess the guy that did the restoration decided to keep it since it has the seat belt label on it. Anyway it looks kinda tired so I want to replace both of them.

My question is what year(s) did they put a lighted mirror in the visor? Was this available in trucks or just in Burbs? I need to know where to begin my search...

my 86 only has a non-lighted mirror on the passanger side

I got a question on sunvisors...Is it just mine or does the driver's side sunvisor hit the rearview mirror

i have a smaller than stock mirror; replaced the 10 inch with an 8 inch by accident. Just kinda find that odd

Ya know I have had a pretty crappy weekend. It seems nothing has gone my way. I haven't had a thing all weekend to smile about till now.

Thanks for taking the time to give me a good laugh....

:p

The pic is funny, but the truck isn't. It looks really nice inside....

I have a really nice set of black sunvisors out of an 85, but unfortunatly they are neither lighted or maroon.

I think the lighted ones came in the 89 and later Burbs. Don't remember 100% though.

damn between moonlight's interior and N2TRUX's cheyenne interior pics, talk about gettin wood! The mid 70's interior is SO NICE when its clean like that.. I mean it really looks good. Of course I'm somewhat partial to those years because of trucks Ive owned over the years.. but geez the 81+ interiors just dont do a thing for me. I have a 91 suburban too with a really clean interior and its just blehhhh to me. 1977 is where its at (pre-77, too)... I never liked the look of the aluminum colored dash bezels in 78 or anything from that point on.. ok off topic, sorry, just felt like rambling

I was pretty sure I had seen them in our body style Burbs. With the lack of replies I was starting to wonder.

If you have time could you check at work to be sure....

I know that they were in the 91's for sure. The red is a different color than yours, I am pretty sure. I will check to see if I can get a pair, though.
