power window switches 4th gen what years fit?

Do all power window switches drivers door and pass door fit all 4th gens or are certain years different??

Also the dealership a few days ago said GM discontinued making them???????? Does that make sense?????

yes, 93-02 Firebirds are the same.
93-02 Camaros are the same.
The Birds and Camaros are not interchangeable.

I just gave a friend a 94 Camaro Window switch to put into his 98 Z28.

The firebirds and camaro's are interchangeable you just have to do a minute amount of rewiring if going from Pontiac ot Chevy or vice versa. But interchanging requires the appropriate door panels. Camaro fits Camaro and Firebird fits Firebird. I have T/A door panels in my Z.

Yes, it makes sense. More and more parts are being discontinued. That's what happens when they get old.

they are supposed to keep and maintain stock until 10 years after the last model, which 2002 is the last year so 2012 is when they are supposed to stop.

When I was building up my 86 Trans Am in 2000, I was getting parts left and right from the dealer and around 2002 the parts got scarcer.

Parts that are 93 specific are now more than 10 years old. If they don't fit later models, then they are subject to discontinuation.

Thanks guys.

I just ordered two sets from another dealer. Yes the 93's have the yellow writing and they have discontinued them that is probably how the other dealer got mixed up. I ordered the newer models, if I change one side I will just change the other and at least the two doors will match.
