Re: 1988 iroc z conv

Those are very hard to locate. It took me more than a year to find one on eBay. Nobody reproduces them and they are plastic so most used ones aren't in great shape. The rod system was only used in 87 and part of 88 from what I've gathered. Not to discourage you as I'm sure you'll find one. Search eBay and the classifieds here. Good luck!

Your best bet is to convert it to the cable release style. That version is still available last I checked. You'd have to modify your tonneau to fit the new handle is all.
