Year One?

I'm thinking of getting a new center counsel for my 1989 Firebird from year one. Has anyone bought this item/dealt with year one by any chance? Thanks!

Yes lots of good replacement parts, Kinda expensive on something but they have some parts that are hard to find.

i have to agree on classic industries, they have good stuff that is also hard to find, and they're not as expensive!

& you cant forget Hawks Thirdgen parts either
There is some things that They carry that you cant find at year one or classic industries.

Like the right color headliners for my car.


With classic they have some stuff that is even cheaper then Summit racing. Right now they have my heads I am looking at buying for like $60 cheaper then summit But I will most likely order them through summit because they price match slightly.

Another thing i like about classic is they ship you a card in the mail every once in a while with 20% off .

Got front and rear carpet from them, felt cheap, didn't fit quite right and was overpriced.
