I need to replace this part as someone didn't know how to take off Wiper Arms and cracked it.

But what do you call it when searching Auto Parts Stores?

Is this a Cowl? I could not find anything for my 95' Blazer under Windshield or Cowl.

You are correct. Cowl, wiper cowl, windshield wiper cowl, however you want to word it

Your best bet is a junk yard. I would suggest you go to one that will let you pull it yourself. They can be fragile, and someone pulling a part that they don't need for themselves may not be too particularly gentle with it if you know what I mean lol

It's not hard to remove; pull the wiper arms, then the hole thing is held down with just phillips head screws and some pop-in clips, if memory serves me correct.

How much difference between a 94 and 95 - LMC only goes as far as a 94 but it looks like they do offer the 94 cowl - it's a three piece unit, - two outer corner panels and a long center - center is around 99 bucks ....

I think my 04 is a 3 piece as well, but I couldn't tell you if they're any different...

Found lots of sites that had the cowl for $100 up to $199. Bought a cowl in beautiful shape at the junkyard for $10.

I took mine off because of garbage in the space under it. Purchased from hardware some sticky type rubber stripe, pull the tape off one side and stick it on. Stuck between windshield and cowl in hopes of keeping garbage out of that area. Mine had traveled into evaporate area and smelled bad. Small inspection plate on that housing which I removed and took shop vacuum and placed a small half inch hose in two inch hose and was able to remove the trash. Was full of dirt and fir needles. Here I have to worry about iron wood needles which look like pine needles.
