Default Source for Center Console Screw Covers?

Do'oh!

I replaced my auto shifter (another thread) but two parts seemed to beam up to Scotty (of course). Does anyone have a source or GM part number for the two plastic covers that cover over the screws that hold on to the center console?

I tried search and nothing seemed to bring them up. I search the normal GM part suppliers and they don't show the screws or these covers

Here is a picture. I'm looking for the two plastic covers to the right of the cig lighter (not the cig lighter cover).

Thanks in advance...

What year is that? It might help. Does yours have the "tombstone"? On my '07, the tombstone wraps around to there.

Try this site.
Just measure the opening and you can find a plastic plug to fit.
http://www.clipsandfasteners.com/Buttons_Plug_s/73.htm

They come in a package of 50 for $5.00, so use 2 and sell the other 48

Your local auto parts store probably have those as well.

Sorry, it is an '09. No tombstone.

Ok, I found some information.
On the inside, there is a number B-10074 and then a "2".

Using a MIC, I measured:
Head diameter is .985"
Hole size is .745

So it appears to me, that this is the one:

3/4" Black Plastic Flush Type Hole Plugs 1" Head

But I am guessing.

This looks similar but not exact. Guess some future owner will have points subtracted when they take it to some distant NCRS judging!

Try Lowes in the hardware section. The pull out draws. I bought something similar but in a smaller size.

That's pretty unbelievable (not saying I don't believe you) that both of them disappeared.
