11-6-08 I installed Dynamat on the doors and tailgate to prepare for the sound system.  The tailgate weighs about fifty pounds after I installed it on t... Show morehe inside and on the removable plate for extra protection.  It sure sounds solid when it is closed.  Eventually, I would like to do the entire cab.  Also, I got a bit creative with the hood after I welded in the washer-nozzle holes.  I primered the entire hood and made a tribute to all of the Rat-Rod Hot Rodders out there.  I hope you appreciate it!  I did it free hand!  It is installed on the Blazer, but only until I prep the entire thing for paint.

11-1-08 Beings the AVS Kit eliminates the door locks, I felt no need to keep the interior locks there just to flop around.  The bezels were removed and ... Show moresanded smooth, and the lock hole was filled in with Lord Fusor 143 I believe, which is used to repair Plastic Bumpers, but it works well here, too!  In the photos, the Lord Fusor has not been sanded, but it turned out really well!  I am currently prepping these and the door handles for paint.  The texture has again been removed to match the other color-matched interior pieces.11-3-08  I have the door handles and bezels completey smoothed and painted.  I used Dynamat on the doors for vibration protection.  LOL  Also, I must add that the only rod going into the door latch is the one to open the doors from inside the car.  All of the other rods have been removed as well as the complete lock assembly.  My door is losing functions as we speak!  LOL  As a matter of fact, I have no way to open my doors from inside the cab unless I use my poppers!  HA HA  Hopefully, within the next few days I'll get the doors put back together.

This page is dedicated to Shaving the Windshield Washer Squirters on the hood, BUT keeping the functionality of the washer nozzles.  I have stated the j... Show moreob, but I haven't taken any pics yet.  I will include GM part numbers for the ease of anyone looking to do this modification, themselves.  The New Nozzle actually installs underneath the wiper arm, just like the new GM vehicles.  I am working on keeping everything very well hidden, and appear to be factory installed.  I am waiting on the passenger side nozzle from GM, but as soon as I receive it, I will post pics of the install, so keep in touch! Here's the start of the part numbers that are required for the washer nozzle swap:GM# 22094728 - You will need two of these.  They are the nozzles themselves.  This is the only piece you will get from GM.  Everything else can be purchased at a parts store.  I picked up everything else from Hedahls Parts Plus, but these numbers will cross with other auto parts stores as well. $35.20 for the pairMTM 47101 - Hose connector - A Misc. Pack of Vacuum hose connectors $3.93  You may need two of these kits depending on how you hook it up.MTM 47100 - Vacuum Tees - A Misc. Pack of Vacuum tees $3.89MTM 02365 - Rubber Grommet Asst. - A Misc. Pack of Small Wire Grommets $1.98GAT 27045 - Gates Windshield Washer / Vacuum Tubing - I picked up 9 feet which should be more than plenty to hook up the two washer nozzles.  Remember not to undercut the washer hoses, as they will need to move with the wiper arms. $3.68 Show Less
