I wonder if they still make them?  That would be pretty neat too...

GM discontinued them after a few years.  I'm sure that they would be easy to come by in a salvage yard.  I'm not sure where one could be added to an AV, as they were fairly large, but it would be a useful mod.
2011 Silverado, Ext Cab Z-71 5.3, 6L80, Airaid CAI, Magnaflow cat-back, and a little tuning by me and HPT.

Gone but not forgotten, 2002 Victory red. The quickest lifted 4x4 AV in the US in it's day.

You've got it!

My brother-in-law had a 1980's Chevy 1/2 ton that had the underhood light that had an on/off switch and a retractable cord. That was a useful feature as you just unclipped it, turned it on, reeled it out to where you needed it in the engine bay, and wound it back up when you were done.
My 99 superduty had one also. I bet you could find one in a salvage yard and as long as it's 12v it shouldn't matter what it came out of.

WHERE IT REALLY IS ABOUT THE FRIENDS AND AVY'S, AND NOT THE ALMIGHTY ADVERTISING DOLLAR!
