I only use factory parts. No Mexi parts. Only thing (I don't think he would get offended if I said it) Mexican about this truck is the help I get on it from one of my best buds.

A Mexi vent is a vent that doesnt do anythng, like the stick on ones at a parts store.

You get those Z34 vents installed yet? Huh, didja didja? That will look really good with those installed, they fit the lines of the truck great.

I've often thought about installing a set on my Celeb, but never pulled the trigger.

GTP or TGP vents would look better on a Celeb.

Eh, I've never been too crazy about those ones, mostly because they kinda look like stick-on vents. To me anyway. It might look cool though, couldn't hurt to try on a spare hood.

The Z34 vents just don't follow the body lines as well. The Celebs are square.

Agreed, probably why I haven't tried it. They will look great on your truck though.

I've never seen a GMT400 with them before. I've seen Jeeps and Toyotas with them though.

Too swoopy for my car probably, and I'd rather not modify my fenders. I spent a lot of time fitting them and getting the gaps right, I'd hate to replace them if I didn't like it.

Thinking I might take this weekend to install the express down windows.

Put in a Homelink mirror the other day.

My 98 doesn't. Not sure if it was still an option at that point or what. I think I remember my 95 having it :shrug:
