I`m trying to ship parts of my canadian bonnie to the US. can anyone tell me if all parts, such as fenders, lights, etc, are made in the US, and where? If they are, the customs forms are a LOT less complicated. any help here would be much appreciated! thanks guys

hmm I see. I called a GM dealer today, and he wasnt very helpfull, but he did say that to the best of his knowledge, most of them assembled pre-1995 would have been done either in the States or Mexico...does this make any sense?

Yes, you are correct.

The 3800 (LN3, L27, L36, L26, and L67) are/were all manufactured in Flint, MI at the Bristol Rd. plant.

Not too sure about that one, NERV. Never heard of a Pontiac Bonneville manufactured in Mexico. The Assembly plant was located in Orion, Michigan when the bonnes were being produced. I could be wrong though.

Why does Wentzville sound familiar?

But you need part locations anyway. This does you no good.
