Default Interior B-Pillar Panel

I'm looking for a place that sells the plastic interior panel that goes under the b-pillar (Think it is called that) that runs from side to side on the car above/behind the passengers' heads. Does anyone have any idea where I can find the piece(s)?

Thank you for your help!

Dave

It would help to know what year your working on, but I'll see if I can help.

On 68-77s, the panel that runs up the rear door jam (also known as the lock pillar) and onto the "B" pillar, is called the interior quarter trim panel. The 2 pieces that go across the underside of the targa bar (above your head) are the headliners or coupe rear roof panels.

If you have a 78-82, the 2 panels that start on the "B" pillar, and meet at the center underside of the coupe targa bar, are also called coupe rear roof panels or sometimes roof halo moldings.

All of these peices are repo-ed, and available from most Corvette vendors.

Much thanks. I apologize. I have a 1979 corvette.

I believe so. It sounds like them, and that's about the price that they retail for.
