Hello,
I have a 1989 RS convertible. The previous owner wrapped leather around the pillar(s). After I removed all of the leather I could see why. These things are cracked everywhere. I can't seem to find a place that sales these.

I need driver and passenger side. I need the top as well (piece that go's along the top of the windshield).

Junkyard is probably your best bet. Usually they're in mint condition.

here are some pics, I took them with my blackberry (so they might not be the best quality). Anyone know where to buy?

That's what I'm told, smh...
I could use the ones I have now and make a 1pc mold. I'm starting the process of applying black and red carbon fiber to the whole interior (I know it's kinda rice rice).

I'm pretty sure the bottom half of the A-pillars are normal T-top parts that are cut down to fit. The top piece above the windshield is specific to the convertible. You could try a dealership, but I wouldn't waste the drive across town. I'd still say your best bet is going to be a junkyard. The hard part is finding a convertible F-body in a junkyard. Try putting a want add in the classifieds here, or post this on the convertible sub forum.

Less rice then whoever painted everything tan... *cringe* It'd be a pain in the ***, but you might consider just swapping out the entire dash for one that hasn't been painted. It shouldn't be too hard to find one in decent shape, most of the dash stuff isn't worn most of the time.

Quite the oppiste my friend. THAT DASH IS HECKA HARD TO FIND! I have been looking hard. this is the closest thing I have been able to find.

this is a fiberglass overlay. there are a few companies that make it, but this is the cheapest I found. only $195 usd.

where can I find the T-top a-pillar? I also need passenger side B-Pillar... you know where to buy?

Where are you located? I can't see a dash shell being hard to find. They hardly ever get removed from junkyard cars. It's time consuming and there are a lot of hidden bolts and screws. It's doable if you can find one in the junkyard.

I'll suggest it again... Find someone parting a Camaro in the classifieds. It shouldn't be hard to find a good dash. If it's local and you can pull it yourself, it shouldnt even cost you much. If you expect someone else to pull it, or have to ship it, you'll have a lot more invested.

I'd skip the cap. Aftermarket parts like that never seem to fit right. Original used parts should be easy enough to find. You just have to go out and look.

Not sure where you're located, but I've got a spare dash or 2 hanging around too... a/c and non a/c dashes. I'm in Vermont and I'm not interested in shipping the dash(es).

blakecharles

I'm in Oakland, California. these parts are a bit hard to come by out here.

Bummer. It's been my experience that these dashes don't ship well (nor do they ship cheaply).

but if you are willing to pay $50 + shipping its yours
