I bought some sill covers for my car and after about 2 weeks I threw them away, Kept catching my foot on them and one cracked.

I got some Lloyd mats from Chip at CCA and bought the sill covers in the pic from West Coast Corvettes. Been happy with both of them so far.
As far as an indoor car cover, I bought one from West Coast Corvettes called IntroGuard - works well keeping the dust off and fits the car perfectly. They may call it Intro-Bond now, but if you're interested, just ask them about it.

You can get Loyds mats from pretty much any forum vendor, but my preference is for the quality OE mats from Mamotorworks.

I'm not into sill plates.
IMHO, the triguard from West Coast Corvette is the best value, quality car cover out there. Comes with the C5 emblem on the front, and "Corvette" letters on the back. Easy to put on/take off, rolls up and stores easily in the provided bag. High quality material and at only $89.00 it is a steal.

first , do c5 convertibles use a different cover than coupes ?? second , wife likes the other two flannel like covers on other vettes , she wants something a little bulky but SOFT and not scratchy [ they are ''east end'' or ''east side ''] . third , we looked at current recommendations and a ton of stuff that came up on computer and her favorite was at ecklers and a couple posts came up telling us ecklers was a terrible place to deal with . are the new type materials soft and safe to put on her dark blue 2004 ?? only found clear plastic door sills at one place and a little pricy . decided we are looking for clear floor mats but they are a little rare and could be SLIGHTLY larger to cover stock mat better . thanks for your suggestions we'll work this out eventually .

Ecklers is just fine - -been buying there for thirty years and a dozen Corvettes . . Lloyds mats are terrific- but don't put plastic over them - -
For covers, sill plates and everything else under the sun, take a look at Mid America, Zips, Willcox or RPI - -all forum sponsors as well . .
