I found mine on craigslist sometimes they are on ebay but make sure you get all the mounting hardware. I got my louvers a year ago at least and I still have not found the stupid brackets to put it on the car!

Yeah there's a site for them but they sell the crappy 3 piece ones and for a ridiculous price. I'm looking for the same thing and the best I've found so far are on ebay or craigslist.

Would be a good idea to get them from the closest location to you as possible so you can pick them up yourself, otherwise don't be surprised if the shipping charges equal or even double the pricetag.

Re: rear window louvers

Just an FYI that they are all 3 piece sectioned. You have the 2 sides that are ABS and the center section that's made up of aluminum slats. The difference in what you are describing is the one-piece look versus the 3 piece look. The factory set is the one piece look. Your only option is finding them at swap meets, craigslist or ebay.

Here is the side piece for a factory set.
