I purchased a complete carpet set from Wilcox and it fit almost perfect. Very minor fit problem with the rear compartment that really isn't worth mentioning. My brother-in-law purchased a carpet from Corvette America and he had fit problems with both driver and passenger sides. He ended up making some "adjustments" of his own.

I used Wilcox last season and was very happy with the quality, fit, and price of their carpet kit.

Wilcox is the BEST! I just placed a $2K interior order with them that saved me $300 over Corvette America Catalog pricing. Great people lousy Internet representation, they propabaly save a TON of money not paying high priced Web designers and consultants to keep a site up and running. I have used Wilcox for over 10 years now and always happy with their service and quality of the parts.

Wilcox
I have purchased almost all of my Corvette parts from Wilcox, not just because they are only 10 miles from me, but they are super knowledgable and a great bunch of guys. If they charged for all of the great advice they give, they would be rich.

Thanks all and I'm sold on Willcox - at least for soft goods.
Placed an order just the other day for a seat foam set, comfort weave seat covers and an intallation kit - saved almost $200 in comparison to Corvette Ameirca prices and the stuff was shipped from Corvette America!!!
Spending the saved $$ towards the Transmission but thats a new thread.....
Thks!

Another option is Al Knoch. Supurb quality but a little more expensive--or maybe not. Contact Walt Knoch on the c1-c2 forum, member name Ironcross. He is a dealer and can offer you a discount that will make the prices very comparable. I just recieved a order and am very happy.

I have bought from both Willcox, and Corvette America. The only problems I have ever had have been with shipping, and Back Orders, but both suppliers have been more than accomidating to resolve any issues that I have had, and I will be ordering from both in the future. Willcox also seems to have about a 10% better price on like items or items that come in a Corvette America box.
