Help finding parts

Alright a little background on how I got myself into this situation.
A few weeks ago, I had to order new door locks from autozone for my 85' corvette.
Well I finally got around to putting them in today. I had some trouble getting the old ones out of the handle, meaning I destroyed the old lock in the driver's side beyond repair. So it didn't bother me because I thought I had the right lock cylinders, until I matched them up. AZ gave me the wrong ones!!

So I went all over town to dealerships and to other parts stores to only get the part number for the right ones. Now here I am surfing the internet trying to match them up.

My question is does anybody know any good parts search websites, that could include the picture or a good description of the part. The only one I found just says cylinder, and Im leary of ordering the wrong one again like I did from autozone.

The part number is 12522046, I got the number from a dealership. Ive searched everywhere I can think of and haven't found much, so I figured someone on here might now a good website.
Thanks


Brad

I would go to www.partszoneonline.com or www.gmpartsdirect.com

PartsZone is P&G Chevrolet in PA, GMPartsDirect is a dealer in NC - I'd use the one closest to you to minimize shipping as their prices are pretty much the same - service from both have been excellent in my experience.

Anyhow, there's no photo, but PartsZone has that part number for $15.18.

There's a "contact us" form on the site. They usually get back to me the same day. Again, GMPartsDirect has very similar service and pricing - I use PartsZone because I'm in Ohio and I can get next-day delivery using ground shipping for in-stock parts because I'm so close.

Thanks guys, I think I may have found some in grapevine, TX. My parents are going down there for thanksgiving so maybe they can pick them up. If not I might be ordering them through partzone or somewhere else.
I did send an email to partzone asking about those cylinders to try and find out more info.
Nightfire,thanks for the link dude. Ill definitly keep that one bookmarked.
Thanks again


Brad
