In Lars tech papers, he mentions they are a common part at the auto part store. Might wanna try there first and see if they can locate them.

Thanks for the replies guys. It turns out that they are not available in parts stores or from GM because they have been discontinued, and apparently some time ago; my GM dealer said he showed no stock anywhere in the country...? At any rate I found some repro's for $12 bucks for a set of four, not too bad
