Oh no!!
It looks like they put caulk on the outer edge of the glass. It shouldn't look like that. There should be a gap between the edge of the glass and the frame.
Top latches
Once again, there are two cables connected to the header latch mechanism. One cable to the left rear latch, the other cable to the right rear latch. Those rear latches latch onto the rear pedistals in down position ALSO. Photos included of right rear latch. This is what keeps...
There are two cables connecting the header latch mechanism to a latch mechanism on each rear side of the roof, those latches can be verified latched to the pedistals that hold the trunk divider.

Or try the Chevy dealer up at the Irvine Auto Center, i've bought from them and they could usually have common small parts the next day. Either way, you're...
Tech 2 Scanner
I bought mine through aliexpress.com at the recommendation of another forum member posted years ago. I think Ali Express is similar to Amazon by comparison, the store was Shenzhen Acartool Auto Electronics Co. I paid exactly $350.00 free shipping. Today I noticed their price...

I knew a car salesman/closer years ago. He once told me they make more money on a used car than new cars. Naturally they will low ball the price because they are going to make their profit when they sell it. Dealerships hate warranty claims, very little if any money made on...
Congratulations!
Sounds like you have some work ahead of you. I like your plan, sell the Vette, keep the Eldorado. You gotta love lots of chrome and mustard and mayo on those bigg Caddys. :thumbsup. Post some pictures if you haven't already.
I never call them. I just look online and if the item lets me put it in the cart, I just order. I think what happens quite a bit, their wharehouse will not have it in stock and it has to come out of Michigan or somewhere else. I have had a couple or recent orders that happened on and it took...
Most of the online GM parts dealers have that part listed as available. I checked a couple, $87.28 plus shipping. I usually order from partswholesaledirect.com because their prices and shipping rates are lower. You might be able to find one with a lower price.

There are also...
Lift Cylinders
It's time to change the lift cylinders. Part number 88957084 qty 2. Not too hard to change, just need somebody to hold up the trunk lid while you change them.
These are not the hydraulic cylinders.
Look at the images of the red V in my post. The gas filler is on the passenger side. Yes in photoshop it is called Image Rotation / Flip Canvas Horizontal.
photoshop reversed
Like this notice how the emblems are reversed.
And this with the filler on the RH side.. The V was reversed to make it look correct, but it's not.
Here is the driver side if you don't believe it. Again the V was reversed in the image.
