Default Where can I find a NEW center console!?

Ok so long story short, the guy who towed my car to the shop to get the clutch fixed f***ed up my center console. He pulled the brake handle too hard and it knocked a chunk out of my console. The tow was provided under my road side assistance. Therefor they are paying to have a brand new console put in my car. The issue is I CAN'T FIND ONE!!! I've called Chevrolet: It's been discontinued. I looked at RicksCamaro.com: Nothing there either... I checked ClassicIndustries.com: No luck. So does anyone know where I can find a new console? It can not be from ebay or any other site of the sort. Thanks in advance!

Well that's a crock of crap. No wonder they're being so nice to buy you a new one...if you can't get one!
It's very common for auto body shops to get parts from a junkyard (oops, that would be a "recycled auto parts" yard), especially if that's the only possible source. The place in the link below sells on ebay and body shops buy from them as well, so side-stepping an online auction should make the ins. company happy. If you find a good used console, which I'm sure you will, don't take no for an answer from them. But man, what a friggin idiot who broke yours. http://www.lkqonline.com/?gclid=COrw...FQRqKgodTFTxJg

Why don't you show them quotes for the 6 speed one that Hawks3rdgen does have. I believe it is $150. Then explain that there are no brand new ones for the 5 speed in your year, and have them give you less cash to buy one used. Don't take no for an answer like Camaro_69 said.

*Wait is this an upper console?
