Default Vette Tray Lids

There coming....

Of course, the lid would be black, but then we would demand color coordinated covers to match our C6 exteriors....

Not that anything is likely to injure anybody, but in the event of an accident, things wouldn't go flying with a cover.
How is this for listening to customers...Expect to see the below lids hit the market this weekend (provided everything test out ok).




Thanks,

No reason they shouldn't work with existing trays unless Glad changed the pattern or something since you got yours.

I'd suggest you guys look into some different alternatives for compartments that have hinged covers or simply look better than painted gladware.

Do you guys ever plan to make something that fits a convertible? How about with a gray/pewter interior?

Big problem with the convertible is when the top is down...changes everything in the car. We are looking at options for the vert but nothing as of yet...sorry!!!

Jim, went to the web site to order just one lid (I bought one of the original ones with only one storage tray)

Let me know how I can order the one lid.

Thanks

Check out www.southerncarparts.com and look under VetteTray.

Bought one a while back to hold some of the small stuff I always have with me like my sunglasses, cell phone, CD case.

Actually works out nice.

They just added tops to go on the storage tray to hide what you store.

Pretty good idea.

AHA! Now I see. You be right, it's a great idea. Thanks for the enlightenment.
