2000 Corvette mystery part

These were found in the trunk of our 2000 convertible. Can’t find where they go. Does anyone recognize these, and where they go?

Looks to me like some insulation from your A/C system ?

interesting comment. We did have the ac serviced recently, but it was all under the hood. I’ll go in and ask the mechanic! Anyone else?

Looks like the bushing the refrigerant lines would pass thru at the firewall or something similar

the only problem is it appears these two strips were once stuck to each other. And only one has holes. Maybe 1/4” dia. More likely some kind of bumper.

Is it a ragtop? I believe I have a set of those glued to the inside frame of the top on mine. If they came off, they would be in the trunk.

I think those are actually part of the underside of the tonneau cover. I think they're pads that help protect the top when it is stowed. You don't really need them though.
