Need plastic 'washers' at top of armrest

This piece is actually called an excusion... it goes between the armrest and the door panel, at the topmost armrest mounting pt. I've found several on eBay that look like a round cylinder w/ a wide base, but that's not what I need. This is almost flat, in a trapezoid (kinda like a diamond) shape w/ a round hole drilled in the center. Both of mine are cracked and broken. I'll try to get some pix, but I'll have to find all the pieces 1st.

The part #s are

20634464
20634465

GM discontinued them in 2001 and I can't find any other info about them online. Any ideas?

You have the delux door panels? if so goodluck nobody that Ive found has them. I think your best bet is to try posting an ad in the classifieds but goodluck.

Thanx for the pic! I'm looking for the pieces on the left of the pic, just above the rectangular black piece w/ the hole in it.

Yup, those are almost impossible to find, and when you find a used set....alot of times they are busted and I have not found anyone that carries them. I ended up taking a set of tan ones from a scrapyard and painting them with SEM Trim Black paint and they look pretty good.

I just found a mint set of the covers with the birds on them as well as the round ones for the screw cover. Never been scratched to hell with a screwdriver like most. It was a 91 firebird so it didn't have the same excusion thing.

I'll keep an eye out for you.
