Default Eckler's compartment divider " Quiet ride"

Intrersted in this accessory. But not too sure what it looks like in a Vert. Hoping someone here has a pic of it on both sides. How do you like it? Does it help with exhaust drone? Also heard of Andy's divider. Does anyone here have a pic of both sides and a web site? Thanks for the help in advance!!

Don't know about the two you mentioned, but I have the one from Exotic Vette(Don, Crazy Cowboy). Fit was good, color matched interior, price was very reasonable and he is a great guy to deal with. More of a deal to separate the trunk from the interior than a sound deadening product, but with the top up it does reduce the sound somewhat.

They have a few options for you. I have the "no carpet" version for coupe or vert and have found it reduces the noise level when the roof is up. Once positioned properly it remains in place whether the roof is up or down.There is a version just for verts as well, but not cheap. It also serves as a trunk divider as well.
Good luck.

I have the carpeted type, that is held in place by friction............not only does it reduce noise, but it produces betteer sound quality from the rear speckers by projecting the sound toward the cockpit.........plus it is moveable it you are transporting something too large for the rear trunk area.............but it.

This is the one thing I have purchased that I regret buying.

Why don't they make one of these with a vacuum core? Seems it would block sound better than conceivably any material.

Do you have any pics from both sides? Just would like to see how it looks in the Vert.
Doesn't the wterfall block the view if the Corvette name stitched into the the carpet?

Aaron............I found where I got mine...sales@southerncarparts.com

Talk to Jim Vose.........I got it from Southern, you can get it with the emblem also........check the web site out, the reason I did not pay extra for emblem because you can not see it unless you let the seat down and look toward the rear of the car................
