That is very nice, I think anyone owning one of these trucks should invest in one. I got a chilton manual and it was total crap.

I buy all the factory GM service, parts and other manuals I can get my hands on. Of course, I find more than a few incorrect info in them. Parts that were never made but put in the books, parts that were made but not put in the books, ect.

Ex: 1994 Olds Cutlass AQ9 seats = never offered after 1993.
1995 Olds Cutlass HUD = not offered. 16 total made.

I want to find a Night Vision and HUD from a 1995-96 Caprice...

I really hate to ask what you paid for that. I know it wasn't cheap. I know if you paid anywhere close to retail, it was 3 digits. I have about a couple of GM service manuals off of eBay. 80GMC and Wiring Shematic for 86 Chevy/GMC. Also have a GM training handbook on 4L60-E which doesn't really do alot for repair since its mostly about theory and operation, not tear down or troubleshooting.

I think I saw a cadillac from around the same era with the HUD/NV. I can see it having its benefits but if you drove by my house with the NV on, all the glare from the IR LEDs from my NV surveillance cams would blind you lol.

I've seen a few of those, but they were later models and on a FWD platform. I don't remember the model, but I'm sure Retro can tell you.
