Rear Sun Shade

[Tuna]

The rear sun shade on my 92 is about to die. It's hard to pull out and refuses to retract. The dealer says they are no longer available from GM.
Where do I get a replacement?

Try www.contemporarycorvette.com
They ship internationally, take credit cards and have done me well in the past.

When you get the new one, the old one is kind of hard to remove. You need a long screwdriver and lots of patience. It's installed just like one of those pull-down blinds, where it is spring-loaded into the slots. Basically you compress the spring with you screwdriver and it pops right out.

I always forget my car has one of these things

I'll keep that in mind when I pull the old one out.
Thanks.

How much was it Tuna? Also, has anyone ever had any success in pulling one and just wrappng the spring a little tighter so it will retract?
