headlights?


Recommended Posts

Posted

hi all,

 

I need to get a new drivers headlight on my 99 nbs sierra. Could find anything on ebay for them, what other yrs' models will fit my truck. I'm pretty sure the chevy silv will fit, but didn't see any of those, how about the suvs they have? are those pretty much the same on the 99's.

 

Thanks !!

Is this what you're looking for?

To the best of my knowledge, the Silverado and Sierra don't have the same lights. They may fit on the support bracket (as that part should be the same), but the light's shape itself and the hood lines are somewhat different.

 

After doing a search myself, I can clearly see that the aftermarket for Silverado headlights is far more active. All those people putting "projector style" light housings on their Chevy's makes for a lot of used headlights out there.

I just bought a drivers headlight off ebay for my 2000 Sierra. Paid $25 plus $15 shipping. It was a factory takeoff and like new. I watched the auctions for a while to make sure I was getting a good deal. If you check every couple days you should be able to get one for between $40 - $60 pretty easily. It was pretty much like new... seems like everyone is upgrading to the Denali style projectors and selling the lights they are removing.

 

Not for nothing, but considering a replacement oem headlight is over $200, any deal you get under $100 is a good one, but if you give ebay a chance, you can find a great deal.

 

If nothing else, you can pick up an aftermarket headlight for around $145.

Thanks for the help guys,

 

found a few there now, will keep checking ,

 

btw, will a 00-04 headlight fit on a 99 New body style truck? I though i read once that the 99(nbs)/00 were basically the same truck, but I could be wrong.

Yep, all 99-05 GMC headlights are interchangeable(even the Yukons). The Denalis have the projector style but are still the same shell.

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
