Help needed on part lookup
I'm trying to find a part on gmpartsdirect and gmpartshouse. I need a new wiper cowl (including the vent on the drivers side) as well as the little weatherstrip that goes between the cowl and the windshield. My cowl is junk and the weatherstrip is loose (my windshield wipers keep pulling it off). When I look up the part, I only see upper plenum and lower plenum and some kind of retainer. What am I looking for?

Not yet. Here's what I'm looking at:
Can someone confirm that the "Air Inlet Grille" (#6) is the wiper cowl? And if so, is the "Air Inlet Grille Retainer" the weatherstrip?

First off there are 2 designs, 97 and 98-04. #6 is what you need. It is called the air inlet screen and it comes with the weatherstrip that lies against the glass. The retainers are just the push in plugs that lock it in.

Gene can tell you if they are available and at what cost.
