Unknown plastic piece
Just a got a new to me 2016 convertible with Z51.
I found a U shaped plastic piece in the glove box. I can't figure out where it goes. I've searched all the numbers stamped on it.
It's interior for sure.
Pics attached.
Thanks!

I agree with above. It's not this piece is it? Not sure how different they look in a convertible.

Agreed; it is difficult to understand.
But in my case, and judging by your avatar in your case too, since we both have coupes and the diagram shows the convertible setup, neither you nor I have a frame of reference. Since the OP has a vert, I'll bet he can figger it out!

Thanks everyone!
It's a trim piece that dresses up the opening in the trim on the header panel at the top of the windshield where the convertible top latches. It didn't look that bad when I was trying to find a spot for it. Now that it's installed (and I ordered the other side), it looks much cleaner.
