Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

[Rocket Man]

I saw one for $58 with free shipping, but it's unbranded.

Upper Dash Front Section Trim Panel For 07-13 Chevrolet GMC replace for 20844035 | eBay

Easily repair dry, cracked dashboards without spending a fortune on parts and labor. Also looks better than a fabric dash board cover. For Chevrolet Avalanche 2007-2013. For Chevrolet Silverado 1500 2007-2013.

www.ebay.com

Will do. Says it has 30 day free returns so I figured, why not.

I saw that too. Dorman is where I draw the line in the Chinese parts department lol.

Yep Dorman is as low as I'll go lol. If it's cheaper than Dorman, run!

I have had an issue with confirming the dash p/n. GM Parts Giant and GM Parts Direct are the 2 online dealers I have always used to lookup parts, and they show 2 different parts for an 08 Tahoe which is what the used dash I bought was out of. I can’t go by my VIN obviously because that pulls up an LT dash like it had in it originally. So I asked @915_Tahoe if he could verify that neither has a speaker hole in the center. From what I can tell the correct one is 23224747 which shows as Ebony which my interior is and the other one, 19331336, shows as black. But Ebony IS black. From his reply, I believe neither has a speaker in it but his wording in the PM is weird so I’ve asked him to clarify. From what I see neither do but he hasn’t responded again since last night.

Anyway I shopped and shopped for the 4747 and interestingly enough Summit Racing has the best price shipped, beating the nearest competitor by over $40. They have it for $604 shipped so I ordered it from them. Man it better be the right one. I’m about 95% certain.

Here is the part number from mine..

Ebony interior. 08 avalanche LTZ

also, not sure why the carpet looks pink and the wall looks yellow. Carpet is "sand" and the walls are antique white lol

Dammit. That’s the other number I had. And I see it’s less expensive, Summit has it for $527. So I called them to see if I could cancel the first one and order this one. I just had to cancel the order. And then I talking to the dude to order this one and he says it’s about 2 months out and I said wait…let me stop and figure this out. Then I looked and the first one was the same, ship date 10/25 when I thought it said 8/25. So fck. Now I’ll have to do my shopping all over again, for this part number.

I think ebony is the darker, richer color black. Black is black.

Casey is the painter at a body shop so he ordered mine for me. I just give the vin and it pops up what I need.

IIRC, they didn't get the speaker in the center until after 08. My dads 2012 avalanche has the speaker

Well I just searched that interwebs for that part number 19331336; $380.40 I did not check the shipping cost yet

EDIT: Shipping: $288.50 via Freight

$380.40+288.50 = $668.90

Awesome, thanks. I'm gonna have them check availability, I don't wanna wait 2 months like Summit was trying to do. That's $100 less than the best I found. I was actually on their site, it's here in my notes for 626.56 shipped to me. I didn't see that shipping discount because I'm blind I guess.

F it, I ordered it before the shipping discount disappears. Thanks man you saved me a Benjamin.

The first time I ordered a dash, when it was an LT, the best deals were EBay sellers. Now they all show as sold out. I remember getting that one for $200 less than the online dealers.
