Re: windsield trim

I am not 100% sure what part your asking about, but if it is the rubber that goes on the outside around the windshield this is it.

Re: windsield trim

Re: windsield trim

Almost any glass shop will have it as it was used on almost all GM cars
of those years. Sure it will not be a GM part but a knockoff/copy item
that will work/look correct.

I just got mine from Camaro Central.

I just moved and not sure where it is, or I would post a pick, but it looks very close to the factory one that is in the car now, only new.
