Default Hard Top Cargo Net

jetx11, unfortunately I cannot answer your question with certainty. However, if you are willing to do a little work, you can find one really cheap and try it out:

I think the FRC/Z06 cargo nets are the same as the convertible. I ordered mine from Vette Nuts last year, best deal I could find, looked like new and fit perfectly. The hatchback C5s have a different net.

Update: Check this link and select convertible/FRC/Z06 in the dropdown.

This would be correct. The cargo net for the fixed-roof-coupe (incl. Z06) style is the same as the convertible, and is likely in that manner because both models use both the same rear tub and trunk design. The fastback targa coupe has a slightly different tub design in addition to the obvious differences with the hatch which is possibly why the cargo net is different.

That being said the hooks used for the net were used in a lot of circa GM vehicles so if you already have a particular net and need to install it you could possibly go to a local large salvage yard and find hooks that will work.
