Default Interior Part Question

I'm looking for a part for my '81 that nobody seems to sell. It's the plastic housing that holds the power seat buttons. The part is mounted on the lower left side of the driver's seat. Any idea where I might find one. I've tried all of the typical suppliers--ie, Ecklers, Corvette Central, Last Detail, etc.

Is this part available from a Chevy dealer?

You might have to try one of the "recyclers" like http://www.conetmporarycorvette.com and the like. I don't know if you can get one from your Chevy dealer. Can't hurt to try.

Try giving Jim Kimber a call at Pacific Corvette (800) 426-6422. He's got just about everything.

biker, if you can't find one, email me. I have a guy that I have been buying parts from that has an 82 rotting(body wise) in his garage. It would probably need to be dyed.
