Default Looking for a source for my dask defog vent covers

If anyone knows where I can get a pair of gray (95 Neon baseline) dash mounted passenger and driver side window defogger vent covers, I would like to know too.

You can't get them off junk cars easily because they are so stinking brittle with age they just crack and fall apart (or the clips break off). 2nd gen cars changed the design, so they are useless too.

If the car were at a body shop, where do those guys get their replacement parts when the dealers stop selling/making them? I hate having two big holes in my dash......looks like crap.

OK......so are you volunteering to get me a pair? I live in AL, nowhere near IL.

BTW, by "breaking the dash around it" is why I cannot find parts on some vehicles because others just tear out the parts they want and forget about those who come later........not cool.

Sounds good to me. If/when you get a pair, send me a PM and I'll give you contact info. then. Do you have a Paypal acct.?


I don't care if they are gray or black. Either color will be fine.


It still begs the question, where do auto body shops get their dealer out-of-production parts? I seriously doubt I am the first person who needs these covers but can't get them locally.

Surely there is a aftermarket parts manufacturer that whips these out as needed somewhere.
