I'm looking for a rear "filler panel", also known as a "Divider panel" for my 1987 Firebird Trans Am. Its the panel that goes in-between the two tail lights, mine just cracked AND I CANT FIND ANOTHER ONE. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP. Lol. I need to find one, Hawks doesn't have them. Any ideas?

 

Ebay or junk yards. I got mine from the junk yard.

 

some people are too lazy to search a junkyard but its usually the best bet for certain pieces with these cars. especially something like a single/handful of bolts and fasteners. sometimes thirdgenranch or hawks will have what you need, other than that, get your hands dirty!

 

Exactly! Up until my daughter was born last year I spent alot of time hunting the yards. I got several hard to find parts for next to nothing, including my tail lights...all 3 pieces for $20.

 

It's funny as soon as you have kids all your free time goes bye bye and you have to plan time with your car lol.

anyways here you go 35 bucks on ebay used.

Not really. I've actually put in WAY more wrench time this year than in the past. 3 motor/tranny swaps on 3 different cars, 2 paint jobs, a quarter panel replacement, etc...The list goes on and on.

I had my daughter outside in her stroller in the driveway with me while I was doing the motor swap on my car. She was 6 months old at the time and was fascinated by the shiny wrenches that I let her play with.

 

car-part.com it's a search engine for junkyards.

 

I bought one from ThirdGenRanch not long ago and it was in very nice shape. Price wasn't bad either. Give them a look.

 

That's the kinda dad I hope to be = cool.

Yeah, I pulled a bowtie grille for $5 back in the summer. That goes for what, $60 on hawks new. Alot of times I'll get random bolts and stuff just in case I need them down the road.

 

Thanks for finding those for me, but THIS IS MY PROBLEM! Those are ALL I can find, The 1987 Trans-Am ones looked different, they had the red strip on the bottom (it looked like a part of the lights, but really isnt). Its one of the things that makes the trans-am look different from the firebird.

What do you guys think I can do. What are my odds of finding one in a junkyard haha? Their pretty thin plastic peices.

What shud i do? Get a Firebird filler panel? Or look around to find a trans-am filler panel?

 

here you go

Well honestly Idk, where I love there aren't very many junkyards. What should I call this part? Like the correct term. Is it the Rear Filler Panel? the Divider Panel? lol. I need to know what to call it. Thanks for your help guys.

 

YEAH!! THATS WHAT IM LOOKING FOR. Did you find any more of these? Lol. Ive been searching for days, how did you find it? Send all of them that you can come up with. Haha. THANKS. =D

 

haha nice.

 

Try contacting dave mc on the boards here. I bet he has what you need very reasonable too.
