Did the Blazers come with rear side panels?

Just wondering about it. When I bought mine, it didnt have anything in the rear except carpet that is in really bad shape.

My kids were in the back seat and complaining its too loud back there that they couldnt even talk. LOL

Anyone have pics of them if they were made. Or if anyone made their own?

Some earlier models didnt....perhaps it was an option.

If you can come across a set they should bolt right in...if you have the inner tabs. Even then those are easy to make...

The upper trim level trucks like Cheyenne and Silverado had the rear interior panels. They are very hard to find in decent condition because they are easily damaged by moisture. You can make your own out of about anything, ABS plastic, aluminum sheet, plywood, etc. Then cover them with vinyl or something. It also helps having carpet with padding under it.

In the K5 forum I hang in we have a template that floats around for people to use to make their own.

Anyone local you know with a K5....just trace one onto some plywood-cardboard and cover like Bucket says...scrounge a halfway decent one at a yard.

There are only two junkyards that I know of around here. I've never been to either of them though. I need to go to them one day when I have money and see what they have.

I think I'll just make my own out of plywood. I have a couple ideas in my head, so we'll see what I can do with the little time I have to work on anything.

I can seem them fine.

Sounds like you have an Ad blocker on or something. Do you have an internet security program?
