Sorry, we must have missed your email. If you are referring to our Frame Rails. Yes, we changed our design to make them universal for both the C5 and C6.

Let me know if you have any other questions,

Jeff

I can't speak for the redesigned ones but I had them on my C5 and I can tell you that EE makes a top notch quality product. You won't be dissappointed.

OK
THANX
I inherited a set from a C5 so I assume this would be the old design and not fit my c6. I'll match it up and see if it works. Thanx

The Elite Website shows the plastic ones with a 1/2" drop but does not mention the drop on the aluminum ones. Is there a difference? Anyone have the plastic ones?
