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.
Being a cyber security analyst is helpful when it comes to searching the interwebs.

Nothing better then saving some loot!

Well fck. They got back to me on availability along with one other dealer that I sent an email to. They’re on national back order with no anticipated ship date. They asked me if I want to cancel. Im going to check if the other part is is stock anywhere. I think they’re interchangeable.

The 23224747 is in stock according to them. Now I’m trying to get GMPartsNow.com to just change the order to the new p/n for the same price. This part is actually about $6 cheaper. Right now my checking account is all jacked up because there’s (2) $600 charges pending between Summit and them.

They just got back to me, they are changing the order to a 23224747 and refunding me the $2.42 difference. I’m sure it will fit, I checked fitment for a 2008 Tahoe LT which was the donor vehicle and a 2008 Silverado LTZ and it’s gtg.

Didn't they update the dash to have more support ribs underneath? I'd bet that's what the difference is. If so, you dodged a bullet by canceling the original design and getting the updated one and for a couple bucks less.

Haha and I was even in on that conversation, thanks. That’s back when I had the LT interior so the numbers weren’t any good to me back then. It’s weird that on some dealer sites they’re listing the old number, the one I almost ordered, and some are showing 23224747. The old one is the one backordered. They should be showing the 19331331 superseded by 23234747. So yeah, I dodged a bullet. I’ll still reinforce it in those areas too. Thanks Dub.

I'm kinda shopping for one now, too. And I'll be reinforcing it as well.

Mine just had the crack on the right of the cluster hump (I love calling it that!) and at the front left corner of the airbag. I epoxied them a couple years ago when I swapped head units. I also stuffed something (old T-shirt? Socks?) in a cavity in the middle to support it. Nothing worse since.

In the ~2 months Jenn has been driving it and parking outside at work, there have been two or three more cracks form around the airbag.
