Default Mat Anchor Point Change

Anyone know the exact date that the Anchor Points for the Floor Mats
Changed in 2013.





It was sometime after May...

Consider this a bump . I'd say it's a manufacturing error; how in the world is GM going to change the floor mats in the last weeks of C6 production? Doesn't make any sense. Unless they changed the location in the past, and want to use up old inventory, perhaps? That's weird, regardless. Is there an official way to find that out for sure? Good luck.

First I've seen or heard of it. Probably best to PM talon90 and ask, for the quickest response. If he doesn't know he can find out quickly.

Definitely not an error, we know it was changed, just trying to find
out exactly when for Lloyds...

I ordered floor mats and rear deck mat from LLoyds around the 18th of December for my 2013 GS. When they arrived, they did not fit. The anchor holes were too close together. I went back to their site yesterday to re-enact my order to see if I screwed up and VOILA,there are now TWO options for the front mats, older models and newer models. Glad I saw this post, because I thought I was the dummy.

Just ordered some Lloyd mat's for my 2013 GS convert. and mine did not fit either. same problem, way off in location. My car was made in late November 2012, been in contact with supplier and they are working on getting me out another new set. Don't know why GM would revise the mounting when this car is going out of production in 2 Months.

Here is the Answer, direct from Chevy and Lloyds

With the help of General Motors and especially their Corvette division, we have resolved the fastener change issue
in the 2013 Corvette.

The breakpoint VIN number for the fastener change is 1G1YV2DW8D5101979, Corvettes with this VIN and higher will
use the 2013.5 Corvette pattern # 3154030. This Corvette rolled off the line 6/19/12.

Customers only need the last 6 digits of their VIN when ordering mats. Any 2013 Corvette with the last 6 digits of
101978 and lower should use the 2007.5 to 2013.5 pattern # 3154020 when ordering floor mats.

UPDATE:


Picture is on the passenger side - Measure the Passenger side Hook

Vin #'s may not be correct - I spoke with a customer today that had
a lower VIN than what is listed above and had a 9.5" Hook


To be sure - Measure the Passenger Side Hook. It will be 8.25"
or 9.5"



Peace
Chip

UPDATE 2:


Vin #'s should be good for Base and Convertible C6 Corvettes

Vin #'s will not work for Grand Sport - Z06 and ZR1
