Center Console lid
I know I've talked about this before but can't remember the outcome. The part underneath the lid in the center console broke, it'* that part that has the little plastic 1" male hook that grabs the bottom Bezel to keep the lid closed. Mine broke right off I understood that the ones at the scrap yards are also broken. Is the replacement part item # 3 or #4 or another number?

You know I had the same problem with mine...
As I know you are looking for which number it is, I'm sorry, I don't know off hand, but I can tell you this, I modified mine and it'* held up for months and is far stronger than the original. If you end up wanting to modify it the way I did, let me know, I'll be glad to take some pictures of mine and give instructions, it was actually quite simple and will take under 30 minutes of your time and one of those plastic belt buckle connectors that kids sometimes have on their belts...(sounds funny, I know)
Oh, the other thing, this is also depending WHERE it broke off, if you can let me know that, I can determine if you can fix it the way I did or not, i still had the plastic piece coming down, the notch broke off though...

I took the spring out of part #6 and the lid stays closed on its own. I just use it for an arm rest anyhow. I think the part your talking about may be attached to the cup holder. not sure because my cup holder was junk from day 1 so I ripped it out.

I'm new to the forum. I originally put a peice of velcro to keep the lid down. So finally I went to the pontiac dealership to get a replacement. It'* the number 4 on that chart which cost me $22. WHEW HEW
Have any of you had a Twighlight Sentinel problem? I'm trying to replace the headlight switch on my 97 bonneville sse and am afraid I might break the ***. Any input on this?
Thanks
