C7 Shoulder Belt Pad
Can anyone advise if someone makes a "C7", not C6, Shoulder belt pad with the C7 logo oI it. All I can find is C6 when you type in C7.

Across the neck (assuming that's what you meant)?
It's not fitting you correctly; I'd hate to see what would happen to you in even a minor crash. Can you provide a pic of the fit?

For people who are shorter (e.g. My wife is 4' 10" ); even if you use the belt clip on the seat, the belt still comes too high and rides against the neck of the person. The seat belt cover holds the belt our far enough so it does not do that. Plus they also keep the buckle from rattling against the seat when not in use.

That sounds extremely dangerous. I'd find some kind of booster to get her higher in the seat so the belt does not cross the neck. Also, is her seat raised as far as possible?

No, not dangerous. The seat belt pad changes the angle the belt comes across the front of her so that it comes over her shoulder and gets it away from her neck. And yes; she does use a cushion. The engineers that designed the seats were more focused on getting leg room than providing a wide range of adjustment.

My understanding is that he meant the C7 flag "logo/emblem," instead of the C6, and thought this generic Corvette belt holder would suffice, if not, I was mistaken.

You can get a solid black shoulder belt pad at Wal-Mart for around $5.
