Default Center console side panels.

Are the side panels of the center console a replaceable part? Wasnt sure if they were included in carpet sets or if they were available seperately.

Yep.. Michal is right!

The side carpet will come with the carpet sets, but the fiber panel will not.

Made my own side panels from 1/4 inch hard board from Home depot. Used the original worn out ones for a pattern.

Same thing and much cheaper than buying the resaler ones.

Thanks guys, just what I needed to know!

Ernie, I have a few other items that I will be ordering soon for the innterior and sent to Mike in CA again.
On a side note, do you have a catalog or CD of C3 specific items? Some times because I dont know exactly what a part is called I have a little trouble locating it on your site and being in the UK sometimes makes it awkward to find a good time to call.

Jotto-

We stopped doing the printed catalogs about three years ago. I'm sorry.

One mistake made on searching the site is putting to much info in the search box. If you try to use single words like switch or lamp the site will usually break it down for you.

But.. If you do have a problem finding something shoot me an email to Willcoxcustomerservice@willcoxcorvette.c om. I'm on line at weird times so I can usually help you find it. And another solution is if you can't find it on the site send me a link a where you found it. If you have the assembly manual you can also email us the page and item number needed. This works pretty well too!

Also.. we should be going online with Skype in a few weeks. Not sure how that is going to work, but it will save some customers oversea's a healthy phone call and/or will allow you to contact us instantly when we are on.

As always, excellent customer service!
Great idea about sending links and the AIM. Will see what I need/want and mail you.
