Guys, I have an 87 R10 Sierra, do not like the grilles in the GMC, yet I do not want to swap a bowtie onto it as it would drive my OCD self crazy!

Found his 85-87 Chevy grille w/o holes, yet it's for the single head setup, I have the duals. I've done some digging but no answer. Will this work? I do not mind doing a little plastic working to make it fit.

Thanks

I don't know. I like the 85-88 GMC square body grilles. I can tell you that the radiator core support is different for single headlight and quad headlight trucks. I'm not sure about the interchangeability of the wiring going in that direction, but I would imagine you'd just have to move your park light wiring to the new ones in the bezel, and you'd just have two left over connectors where your lights used to be. Other than the core supports, the single headlight grille would fit just as well as the other one.
