Hello one and all - I have an 02 seville STS, and my passenger side front trim (it runs the lngth of the passenger side of the dash, contains the air vents, etc) has been severely cracked and Id like to find a replacement for it, but all of the "wood dash trim kits" Ive found online dont seem to match the layout of my car at all, let alone contain the appropriate piece. Im not sure where else to look(dont even know what the offical part number is for the piece)....any ideas? Thanks!

Auto recycler/Salvage yard. It likely still available new, but it is expensive.

Like slowroll said, go / call a salvage yard.
Try one that is linked to a network and they can search all the salvage yards on the network.

Also, if there are no pieces missing, GEL Superglue can do wonders on plastic.

Simply align piece by piece BEFORE applying the glue, you wont get much of a 2nd chance once the two
pieces touch. I get the stuff at the $1 stores and always keep a few on hand. Remember the word " GEL " ...
