yeah, there are three things you can do...

Cheapest. Go to the junkyard and get parts then clean and paint.
MidGrade. Would serch for stuff on ebay.
$$$$$$ would go to "Year One" they have everything new and nice but its alot of money, just like the dealerships.


Hope i helped a lil.. year one has the catalogs for free for 3rd gen camaros and firebirds.

thanks for the reply!

I want to get new things... Im not about to use used trim, rubber, felt, weatherstripping and such...

I HAVE carpet though, i only need new stuff because i've cleaned and cleaned and it isn't coming clean, should i take it to the cleaners, get a pressure washer, or something? or how about re-painting it?

I have all my parts, but i'de like to just swap everything for new, pretty much. my dash is faded, and has cracks... you know how it is, i want it minty!

www.gmpartsdirect.com is THE place for GM weatherstripping.

Do a search and you can find the part numbers you need. From what most people say the aftermarket weatherstripping on our cars doesn't fit very well, and sometimes leaks.

I've gotten good results from ebay. Got a mint dashpad, a decent center console, and very good seats from there.

yeah its kinda luck.. hit and miss type of deal. i found a mint dashboard w/ no crakes at the junkyard for 15$, yeah i agree w/ the weatherstriping. but the carpet i painted w/ rattle cans (carpet dying kind) and it works for like 4 months but it fads w/ your feet always on it. and it is stiff.. way better to get new carpet.

I couldn't seem to find any weatherstripping at gmpartsdirect.com... its wacky.

I found some stuff on ebay, but i don't want it to be leaky, and it dosen't say if it's new or used.. heh
