![]() I'm not sure when they started droping them in, but they will slide into a 79 as easy as a 93.

![]() Ya, I'm preatty sure they both have the same mounts, but I really need to know the year, unless someone has one for sale.
I'm getting deployed next month, but when I get back, I'll have some money ready to buy.
