The ones that always have holes/rot on them that make the wind whistle through the windows? Black triangular pieces.

I need some for all four of my thirdgens. Where can I get them?

I tried that and they say that don't have them. But they said that about a lot of things that I got when I asked by part number. Anyone know it?

Try another GM dealer. I've bought four sets at different times (including last spring) from different dealerships. You can also buy them from Classic Industries, Year One and other "restoration" companies, but it has been my experience that the "resto" companies buy them from GM and just mark them up.

I've seen those on thirdgenparts.com. Granted they're used but way cheaper and they don't sell junk parts.

I believe Classic Industries had them for like $18 a set. I got a mint set from the salvage yard last year, but they're about gone now.

Look on the part itself, I think I saw it there. They simply pull right up out of the plastic piece. Make sure you have the window all the way down, then grab the rubber part and pull straight up.

Goo luck, and if I have that number I'll post it later.
