Great idea with the shrink tape. That thing is a pain in ***.

This actually took quite a bit of time as well as patients. In the end I thought it came out very nice! You will need a hairdryer some Goo gone, microfiber towels and a bowl of warm water with a couple drops of soap.

The process is simple but tedious. Start out using your hairdryer to loosen the label. Start at one corner and slowly work your way lifting the label while adding some heat in order to remove as much glue as possible. Then it's just a matter of lightly dampening the remainder of the glue with some good gone and rubbing with your towel. Wash it clean with a separate towel with just soapy water let it dry and repeat the process until you're happy with the results.

From what others have said if you have a car with microfiber visors it's just a matter of pulling the label off with little to no residual left behind.

Added Stingray emblems (same as on side cove of car) to 1LT seat backs.



Due to curvature of the seat back, I mounted these down off center a bit. I think it looks OK.

We also have the Carbon Fiber center console






.....and the GM Carbon Fiber dash






Plus, the Carbon Fiber Door Sill frames






And finally, the wrapped Carbon Fiber key fob


Steven,

I think it's time you finally admitted you have a problem. You need to go to CFA (Carbon Fiber Anonymous).

I got the mount here:
http://www.proclipusa.com/dashboard-..._leftorright=0

I use a Rokform mountable case for my phone and attached it to the proclip. Works great. Proclips also makes phone holders that attach to their mount, but I had the Rokform and it is less bulky.

What is the purpose of the shrink tape on the seat belt guide?

Keeps the belt from coming out of the guide.

But according to the Owners Manual:


The safety belt guide helps
position the shoulder belt over
the shoulder and across the
chest of smaller adults and of
older children who have
outgrown booster seats.

I don't use the belt guide.

Those with the suede inserts, I have some questions:
Is the suede warmer than the leather or about the same or cooler? I'm ordering a Z06 3LZ which comes with ventilated seats so I'm wondering if I'll be able to keep the seats cool in hot Miami.

Thanks for the info. Since I'm only 5'7" I've never had to worry about that.

Even my wife, who is only 5'6" doesn't use it. If one of my nieces (13 and under). rides in the vette, we slip the belt in the guide.

The suede inserts are cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
