Default Part Number for the T-Top Shade?

I've been looking for this as I need some. I know they are on Ebay but I want to see how much they are from GM directly. I looked around at GM parts direct and saw something that has a similar description ... but not sure about it.

Just the part number for both sides please? Its for the gray graphite interior.

Thanks.

My manual is showing 10278956 (RH) and 10278957 (LH)...the listing is for 97-99, Gray. I would definitely double check this with a dealer, though.

I am thinking about taking my shades off, and just tinting the t-tops. If I can do this, then I will sell you mine. Let me know what you think.

The ebony color would be too dark. Won't match.


You can't tint the T-TOPS... i already inquired about it.. .. they are Double Pane glass and it will explode if you TINT it.

Mine have been tinted 5% for a year and a half and have seen plenty of heat. Another friend has had his done for 2-3years and lives in TX, seen lots of sun--no probs

Interesting.... When I inquired here about tinting the T-Tops.. that's what they said to me that they are double pane... heat won't be able to dissipate with the Tint on one side which will cause it to explode.

Maybe its just here in AZ?

Arizona heat right now is at 115 yesterday.. Today its expected to go up to 115 again. Just imagine how hot it gets inside the vehicle ....

All my t-tops have always been tinted. I have two layers of limo tint on them.
