The market for reproduction parts isnt strong enough for our cars. I think it will be a few years until we get recongnized a little more. Anyways, I go to junkyards ALL the time, so I'll keep a lookout for a mint one, or one that's really close to mint. I'll shout you a PM if I find one.

The bone yards are full of these pieces; however, chose carefully as age and sun have done their damage. More often than not, merely removing the piece will cause breakage at some point. Note the pics at the end of the following link:

a pillar trim

this might help, When I restored my interior not knowing how that pillar piece came off I broke one of the two inner tabs, i got some of that gorilla glue and reglued it, let it sit up over night and put new clips in and Presto! So if you go to the bone yard and get another and the clip holer is screwed up maybe you can glue fab something up that will work properly, give it a try, wont cost much and just alittle time.
