So I've been surfing the forums for a couple weeks now and I feel that you guys are my best hope to try and find the parts I am looking for.
I have a 2002 Tahoe Z71 that I am rebuilding. What I do is buy cars from salvage yards and redo them for myself, not to resell so I don't care about the salvage title. I have never had this much trouble finding the right parts before. My trim color is 522 (neutral tan) I still need the following:
Either a DR side seat or a set of front seats
DR side a pillar
DR side door panel-non heated seat
Full carpet
Basically if anyone has a 522 Tahoe that they are parting out, I would be very interested. what I had was a burn vehicle and I have completely gutted the truck on the inside clear down to the firewall. Reworked the entire harness and am now starting to put it back together. The pieces I don't have now were damaged in the fire and my normal avenues for finding parts are coming up with nothing.. Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work. Out of all the other forums I truly think you guys have the best collection of people and rides.

Have you checked eBay as well as the GM Dealer?

Thanks guys. I've got a lot of my switches and misc parts from eBay. I've searched car-parts.com. I like to give my money to supporters of the cause first but it looks like I may end up getting some stuff there. Thx

Yep, Craigslist has been tapped out. At least all the postings with in 3 hours of here. I think I found seats in Erie PA but again that is a 3 hour trip. I always like to see stuff if I can before I buy it. Esspecially when it comes to color matching parts. I ordered all new carpet this morning form a company called Vark motors in Ohio. I'm going to put up the pictures of this when I get closer to being finished. Its been quite the project but should be nice once I finish.

It will be difficult to find those interior pats on car part.com The interchange info they have is very limited on interior parts. If your seats are leather you are better of buying replacement covers from GM or aftermarket supplier. You will be hard pressed to find good used material.

Well I am pretty sure I have all the parts. Finally just gave in and had the seats and headliner recovered, bought new carpet, Escalade cluster and misc dash switches. I am still having trouble finding the drivers side door panel, but haven't really looked that hard. Any one got one? I should be putting this all back together this weekend sometime and will try to post pictures. Thanks again for all the help.
