Default Back window cover

I had someone ask me about my cover underneath my rear window in my 2005 coupe. The one that has the "waterfall" in the front and hides what is in the rear compartment. Since I bought my car used, I just assumed it was standard equipment. He says that they are not listed in the GM parts.

I told him that I thought they were standard equipment. The hooks are on the rear hatch. So, were these original equipment?

Thanks.

Not sure if they came with all with all trim levels or not, but one came with mine, I have a 2006 with the 3LT trim.

BZZZZTTTT...tilt...wrong...no 3LT.
In 2005 there was BASE, 1SA, and 1SB. Both the 1SA and 1SB had the cargo shade.

As mentioned, the 2005 had the cargo shade and cargo net as options for 1SA and 1SB. From 2006-2011, the trim level 2LT, 2LZ and above had them as well.
in 2012 , it was 3LT and above that included the cargo shade and net.

Pm me.

I will send the first respondent a cargo shade with the C6 logo for free. The second one will get one w/o the logo.

I have to divest myself of basement crap. This is a good start!

My '12 GS has one in the rear cubby, still in the plastic bag. I've never looked at it. I bought mine from a private owner, so I guess he had no use for it either.
