I think mine came from one of the major Corvette aftermarket dealers; Mike Yeager's or similar. Have held on for 40,000 miles, some of them 130-plus mph. These are held in place by oversize tabs and are a beeyatch to get out for cleaning.

Save your money and get the ones that snap in the front, screw into the rear, double side tape on back up and third brake llite lens. Best price I could find when I did mine a year ago was Dan(Crazy Cowboy), a forum vendor. Not one problem with them.
