im guessing its the round style? (on the ends)
Hard to find,and cant find em used as 99.999% of the time they crack when you pull em!!!
If its the square style? easy. junkyards got em. they dont crack like the rounds.
ive got a few (but without the sensor holes i think)

okiedoak20 drilled a hole in the grille to allow use of the DRL sensor. I found an after-market one on Amazon without and not sure if they'll be room for the hole diameter that will be needed. Anyone else tried this? Problems? Hole size?

Replaced my busted up dash vent in my 2000 Jimmy with a Doorman replacement. However, the doorman does not have a provision for the sensor that is mounted in the center of the dash vent. I removed the sensor from the original dash vent. I broke of the sensor lock tabs and drilled out the center of the Doorman slightly undersize and press fit the sensor into the Doorman dash vent. The sensor looks like a factory installation. I am very pleased with the end result. See my link below on S10 Forum I added a few PICS of my install. The doorman part fit perfect and you cannot tell that the sensor in not factory mounted.
