GM should still carrie them. If not any automotive paint store should have or be able to order them. Just tell them what size and color.

I've tried to order some and was told by my parts guy that they were discontinued. What ever is left in the dealerships is all that they are going to have. Now how much faith in that you would put is up to you. I played it safe and got my grey screws off eBay for a few bucks.

How did you find the screws on eBay? What did you search for? I need some too, and have been looking there for over a month with no luck!

Thanks!

Fbirdhottie,

Welcome to the boards!

To look in eBay for camaro interior parts, First goto eBay home page. Then click on "Cars, Trucks, Parts" under the sidebar categories. Then click "Parts: Car & Truck" under the categories in that side bar. Then click interior accessories in that side bar under categories. Then in the basic search box type in Camaro and then sift through all the info. I check this page often as there are a whole buch of hard to find parts that pop up. I would have posted a link but I thought it was agaist the rules or something to post links here to eBay. If it isn't and someone lets me know I'll post it. If not just email me and I'll give you the link to the interior car parts page to eBay.
Jason

AUTOZONE!!! Autozone sells the screw and the mounted nylon nut too
if the guys behind the counter tell you otherwise, look in their nut+bolt section. Its in yellow packaging. only problem is, they only come in Black

Thanks for the tip Jason. I'm an avid eBayer, and hadn't thought to just go through the catagory listings like that. I'll have to see what I can find.

Mke, my local auto parts store seems to be less than on-the-ball, so I'll probably have to go hunt them down there too. At this point I'll take any color I can get!

Thanks guys!

I usually nab them from a junkyard, too. I always grab misc pieces of hardware, and as I put what I'm buying on the counter, I say "Oh, and I picked this up too", and dump my handful onto the counter. Nobody's said anything yet! I think they're amazed that I'm so honest. Best part about getting them from a yard- you can get the color you want, without having to paint 'em.
