Question 03 Monte Carlo SS Rear Speaker Grills

I need help in locating the Left & Right Rear Window Speaker Grills (Covers) in Ebony/Black color. GM has recently discontinued them and I can't find them anywhere. I have called many many dealerships and none of them have any sitting on the shelf and the GM warehouse does not have anymore of them. I am working on a Jeff Gordon Edition I recently purchased and the grills are broken in mine. If anyone can advise me on where to purchase them it would be greatly appreciated. I am wanting to put this car back in excellent condition.

Prob your best bet would be a salvage yard, u can usually find decent parts at one, where are you located?

I'd be nervous about junk yard grills. Since they are in an area exposed to a lot of heat and sunlight, they can become brittle. Also, I learned the hard way, factory installed, they have speed nuts behind them.

I wanted to switch mine from black to factory pewter. I got a hold of a guy on NAIOA.com known as ZSPOT (he works for a dealership parts department). Very helpful. More about him in this thread:
