Default Rocker panels

So I've been debating about repairing my rocker panels or just outright replacing them, and looking around online I'm seeing conflicting information. Part numbers 10444701 and 10444702 show up on a place like Tasca as available (though a 3-7 day lead time) and that they will fit. Looking at other parts suppliers like gmpartsgiant says that it doesn't fit my C5 and the picture they give looks more like the upper piece that goes around the door hinge, versus the whole rocker like what's shown on Tasca.

Can anyone confirm these are the correct part numbers? And just to be sure, these are still in production from GM?

According to a major on line retailer of OEM parts, these items are discontinued from GM.

I dont know about the part numbers but I can tell you that the rocker panels are very difficult to remove.

Major job to remove. I thought they were NA at the dealers.

I know they're a major PITA to remove. I had to replace the passenger floor panel so I've been there. I just figured I could save myself a bunch of headache, especially since the price on Tasca and the other parts wholesalers was actually fairly reasonable, especially compared to what people want for them used.
