Default Pass. side airbag covers

Has anyone bought a new replacement from GM?

I called hawks third gen and they're telling me that I can't get that one piece, I need to order a new dash, which will be $250.00

Anyone ?

That's kind of strange. When you say part of the dash, that includes the top piece as well, where the vents/cut outs for the windshield de-frosting are?

The dash pad and dash bezel are separate. The airbag cover isn't easily replaced. I painted mine with duplicolor vinyl and fabric black and it looks good.

airbag cover is glued to the dash, easy to remove with a thin knife. I did this when i wrapped my dash in vinyl. Then it´s only glue the cover in place.
dont use any strong epoxy since the cover need to pop up i case of ...
Also cover is attached with 2 or 3 screws at the back. You neded to remove the upper pad to access this area.
