Default Buying older parts for cars

Well before i sell my car, there is several plastic crap in the interior of my car that is broke. for instance my center console is broke (happens alot in these cars) the door panels and the glove box. Can you purchase these items through GM for an older vehicle like mine? If so, how?

how bad is it broke? and what year/millage is your car? Honestly if its not that bad I wouldnt worry about it, older cars have wear and tear thats just the way it is, and replacing them probally wont add that much to the overall value.

But yea, you could probally get them from your dealership

They're broke pretty bad. I also have a bunch of rust on my car, even where it's rusted through. Is there any easy fixes for that.

Some items may or may not be available for a '95. 1996 was the last year for the "older" Camaro interior before the '97 redesign. GM will start to discontinue *some* interior parts usually after 7 years. And after 10 years, many items will be discontinued.
