Cargo net
I bought a cargo net for a c5 on ebay and it does. to seem to fit! The listing was clearly for a c5 and it has a bag for the net with the C5 log on it.
Are there different nets for the c5?
I have a 2001 targa top and I am wondering if what I got was for a z06 or a convertible. I understand there is also a mid-bay that my car does not seem to support.

It should fit in the rear or right behind the seats, You do need 4 of the special nuts.
What do you mean by no mid bay?

I think the targa C5 has a different cargo net than the FRC/Z06/convertible C5. I ordered one last year for my C5Z, and it doesn't fit right. I think it is for a targa C5. Maybe we should discuss swapping nets.

I have 2 of those nuts that hold the corners of the cargo net, in the rear of my luggage area underneath the side panels, but I don't see the other two. Can anyone tell me where to look for them or where they would screw in, and pics would help a lot. I do have the net and the storage bag it came in, but only can find 2 mounting points for it. It's a 2000 coupe.
Thanks.

The other two are out of plain sight near the cargo hatch light fixtures--on the ledge almost directly above the bottom two.

Yup. It's odd, but when I was tracking mine down last year, everybody had the Z06/FRC/vert part in stock, but not the one for the coupe.

I believe that is correct. The ebayer i bought it from said it was from a convertable, but it is too short for a targa. He offered to take it back but if I can help you put as well, that is even better. PM me with your address and the net and my address will be on the way to you.

I have these nuts for the cargo screen, but i do not see where they would go for the cargo net. Does anyone have photos of this net installed (right behind the seats)?
