I couldn't find it online at gmpartsdirect.com real quick, but give them a call as you know it is a sail panel that you are talking about. If not you can buy "custom" ones on ebay all the time.

But I did find this "new gm" set on ebay. Good luck with your search I hope that helps

From what I've heard it's just grab and pull really hard. But they're pretty brittle and will most likely break. However this is just what I've heard, I've never tried it myself...

it is a different part at least on the t top cars. I had a vert and needed that piece and robbed one off a t top car and it was different. I had to modify it to fit. Those damn things come off all the time. Mine just blew off one day going down the road.

Have you gotten the part they are like 64 from gm parts direct, and with shipping is like 80 something. to take it off theres two screws behind the triangle part you take them out, then you lower the top like half way down and there are some screws to remove the weather stripping remove those screws and raise the weather striping , the part should come right up!
