Default Console latch part

My console latch, the center console armrest thingy, it fell in, I think they make a new one right? I don't want to buy a whole new back-part of my console with armrest piece. I'm pretty sure this happens often...anyone know where to get just the little latch? its the part that it clips into, not the hook on the armrest.

13 dollars isnt alot but check the parts forsale section, lots of people are parting out vette's that might be able to help you. I already sold that center section sorry I cant help you.

That's about half of what I paid at the dealer. Trust me...it's broken. It has a plastic lip that's larger than the hole. It falls in when that lip breaks.

Looks to be: GM part # 10268314

Call Bob Wendorff at Fichtner Chev @ 1-800-234-5284. Fichtner has pricing specials (over and above the normal Corvetteforum discounts) on all GM parts through the end of April.
