I broke down and went up to the dealership. However I brought a printout of the same part online cheaper (along with another part I needed [replacement AC vent]) and got them to come down a little on both. Just got done installing the little piece and the replacement vent. All came out perfect... not that I was expecting it to be difficult to pop the plastic cover on.

 

Nice that your dealer came down on price, not a lot of them will do that.

 

After all the crap I went through getting the car... they owed me a bit.

Might see if they'll fill my tank one more time. haha

 

Meh,... I'd of used duct tape.

 

In the future, if you discover some missing bits (like I have), I've found that www.gmpartsdirect.com has all those pieces for pretty cheap. I think the part you were originally speaking of (if I understood it correctly) is $13.62 for my 06 (which incidentally, mine is also missing ). Sorry I didn't see this sooner for you.

 

Thank you for taking the time to get back with us on this. I am very happy you were able to get this taken care of.

I hope you have a great weekend planned.
