Need tips on how to remove and who do you recommend for a replacement? classic industries? Year one? also, does anyone have an original gm part number for this part?

Advance Auto Parts will have one for you. It reeeeeaaally sucks putting one in though. Just make sure you remove all the screws on the firewall (I didn't). Letting the inner fender down will make that part easier. The Chiltons manual was pretty helpful for me.

Good luck, and let us know how long it takes you.
