You have a receptacle in your hatchback or trunk area depending on whether it's a coup or vert where battery maintainer plugs in.

The battery maintainer pkg is nothing more then just a battery charger, like your cetek, that you can order from Chevrolet as an option when you order a new car.

Jeez.. ALL C7's have the plug in the hatch. ALL OF THEM...

The battery protection package was a C-TECH charger with the Corvette logo on it. Nothing special about it at all.

Don't buy CTEK. Go with NOCO. They have built in surge protectors.

I suggest you take a look at Amazon and compare CTEK, Deltran Battery Tender, NOCO and see which unit appeals to you. They are all good.

Amazon often has the same thing, typically for less then many other outlets, It's where I got mine ("GM" Vette-emblemed CTEK). And, for anyone to call it a "package" or "system" is just marketing hype. All the best.

Here's a little gift for anyone who has forgotten to unhook your charger.
Just print out the sign, get it laminated at Office Depot and it will be permanent.
