Header trim interchangeable from year to year?
Hopefully someone can answer this for me. I have a 91 RS Vert. The windsheild header trim was cracked.(The one the sun visors mount to) I found a replacement and just paypaled the money. But the piece is from a 89 Camaro. Are they interchangeable, or did i just buy something I cant use?
Thanks in Advance,
Mark B

This is a good topic...
I've seen a RARE few on Ebay.
None of them matched my 91.
Are they different from ASC and the other conversion company? Does anyone one know of specific years?
The rare few I've seen on Ebay.... did not match my 91.
The latch cut outs were different.
I'd love to find a aftermarket.
Anyone do plastic injection molding?
Mine is still in good enough shape to make a copy.

Aftermarket... I wish. I have always been surprised about how little aftermarket there is for these cars. Its a completely untaped market. If someone were to make some of these interior parts that we all need, they would make a killing.

if a company made the piece you are talking about they would probably sell it for around $100 shipped. maybe $75. would you buy at that price?

Me too. I would think they would charge at least 125-150. But I would be willing to pay it. As long as they made it a little thicker. I dont want to pay that for one that will just break again.

Hello All,
I have a 91 vert Tbi.
The guy who had it before me just put a new top on and had the car repainted...Blk. I have been working on getting the rest of the car up to snuff. I found some stuff on ebay but it adds up quick. I found a place on the web to get this stuff:
http://www.hawksthirdgenparts.com/camaro_parts
That stuff adds up quicker. So I went to the junk yard and found all kinds of good condition stuff. For some reason there were a lot of frond end damaged cars there to strip. (graduation gifts I guess). Hank has the "Convertible Upper Seatbelt Trim Seal" for 75.00. I cut two lower window trim ends off a hard top model (that fit great) for $2 each. All in all I got 2 seats, 2 door window sweeps, air intake hose, spare tire, Radiator cover and some small stuff for 120.00....no shipping. Lots of fun.
