Kirbans sells them, GM dealer should still have them. I bought a OEM set off e-bay about six months ago.

Just a nickles worth of free advice, take the winow out before replacing them. That was the advice on this forum. I went to do mine and thought I had plenty of room.... Well of course I broke my drivers side window! I learned an expensive lesson. Even thoughg these G-body cars are all over that side glass is still pretty pricey!

Good Luck!

I have a few NOS sets available for $80.00 a pair.

Actually, you do NOT need to remove the window. all you need to do is loosen a few of the window lowering stop brackets (10mm) and lower the window further down into the door. I've done probably 20 - 30 of them and it works great.

True, I didn't have to remove the window either. Remove the interior upper door panel and use a small 90 degree ratcheting screwdriver to get the trim off.

Do a search on it, I replied once with pictures of the screwdriver and part numbers.

Do yourself a favor and get GM parts. The repro's holes don't always line up right.

FYI, The ones I have are genuine GM NOS Part still in the GM wrapper.

Did not know the aftermarket made these.
