looking for part number cannot find it
Hi Guys,
I am looking for part numbers to order a new one as the old is broken.
It is the release handle to store the roofpanel in the rear compartment.
the **** itselfs I think I can re-use.
Searched all big Corvette parts suppliers but without any luck.
recently there was one on ebay but this guy did not want to sell outside USA

I checked the used Parts companies in Netherlands and all are broken.
So I would like to purchase a new one as I do not want to take the risk it breaks shortly after purchase.
But thanks for the link on parts.
they seem like a great source for the Corvette enthusiast.

I just bought one recently from forum member weburke. I snapped mine off placing my fathers computer into the rear of my car. I suggest sending him a PM to see if he has anymore available. You will need to remove the package tray to get to it and it helds down by two nuts. Very easy install
