Default Research question

Hello,

Unfortunately, I don't own a Corvette but I am writing a story that has one in it, and wanted to ask a question or two about features a 2019 convertible would have.

1. Is there a button on the FOB that controls the top?
2. Is there a feature that remembers driver settings for more than one driver? (seat position, outside mirror position, etc.)

Thank you very much for any help you can offer!

Yes and yes.

Button on the fob for top raising/lowering must be held down so no "accidental" roof action

FOBs may be programmed independently for two different drivers . Each FOB will be unique

Wont the FOB only lower by the top, unless an aftermarket part (I forget the name) is added?

Only lowers the top. A device called SmartTop is needed to raise remotely.

You need this and another device you can get through SmartTop to raise the windows.

I have only had Roadsters. The C7 handles much better than the C6. I do mountain roads at speed in the C7,. that I would not have been comfortable doing in the C6.

The C8 HTC is going to be awesome.
