Thought I would start a thread of the work I have been and will be doing to my ride.
I installed new lights today.
Previous audio setup. I had 2-12" PPI sub's
New audio setup. I will be going with 4-10" Alpine's.
Also got some new component speakers, haven't installed them yet. Waiting on another pair to arrive that I ordered

Thanks .. Ya.. 200 amp alt... A 2nd battery and a wire upgrade (bigger positive, negative and alt cables/wire ) does the trick... 200 amp alt is good for a 2000 watt sound system at full power . And is good for entire electrical system, lights, a/c.. Etc.. Etc with stereo at cruising volume.. Plus charge an extra battery

I like your car's front end bud. Always thought the SS grille looked cool like that.

Are those for the tail lights or for what if so what the part number
No, those are for the front. Edit: equivalent to GM part # 12159662 and AC Delco part # LS54 <---- these, are $44.97ea shipped on eBay. The ones I got are not a Genuine GM part, but are equivalent, but I only paid $15 for the pair shipped, for a non GM part. And are pretty much the exact same part, even made by the same company nd same parts as GM's, for a fraction of the price.
And go here, the light under the headlight.
The pic up there ^^are the ones I bought. This pic is an actual AC Delco part # LS54. I've compared the ones I bought to the originals on my car and they are virtually identical.
