A few little things, 1999-2003 1500 Series trucks are only available in Regular Cab/Long Box, Regular Cab/Short Box, Extended Cab/Standard Box and Extended Cab/Long Box configurations. GM didn't introduce a 1500 Crew Cab until the 2004 model year.
See page 17 of the 2004 Silverado Vehicle Information Kit from GM Heritage Center for reference.
2004 1500 Crew Cab [GMT800] shown below:
Not to be confused with the 2001-2003 and 2005-2007 1500HD Crew Cab [GMT880], note the 8-lug wheel and 1500HD badging.
2001-2002:
2003 and 2005:
2006-2007:
For 2004, there wasn't a 1500HD option, instead, those trucks were badged as 2500 (not to be confused with 2500HD :lol:) to avoid confusion with the newly introduced 1500 Crew Cab.
For 1999-2002, 2500 models were also available on Regular Cab/Long Box, Extended Cab/Standard Box and Extended Cab/Long Box.
Note the difference in grille and hood from the 2001-2002 2500HD shown below
Other differences to note are the mirror choices for the 2003-2005 and 2006-2007 2500HD and 3500 trucks.
2003-2005 offered the 'accordian' style power-extending mirrors on LS and LT trims (Chevy) and SLE and SLT trims (GMC).
2006-2007 models offered a new towing mirror, which did not power extend.
2001-2005 models equipped with the Duramax diesel engine use this badge:
2006-2007 models used this badging:
All 2006-2007 model Silverados had the 'CHEVROLET' badge on the right side of the tailgate deleted.
2002-2003 1500 Silverado with Extended Cab/Standard Box Fleetside configuration could be had with Chevrolet's Protec composite pickup box. This included a unique tailgate with Protec logo, as well as 'CHEVROLET' written across the tailgate in a similar fashion to the Avalanche. See page 13/29 of the 2002 Silverado brochure:

2002 was also the first year for GM/Delphi's Quadrasteer four-wheel steering system. Standard on Sierra Denali, optional on LS, LT, SLE and SLT models.
Note the wide rear fenders, roof-mounted clearance lamps and side marker lamps on the box.
