C7 3lt dash problems
So I have a 2014 C7 with the 3lt interior and after being in storage for the past four years (military) it has completely shrunk and distorted. Instead of replacing it with another 3lt dash I want to use a 2lt dash. The only problem is the Chevrolet parts department can’t look it up without the right vin number. Obviously I don’t have a vin number to a 2lt interior corvette. Does anyone have a part number for a 2lt dash with heads up display?
thanks in advance!

Yes. That site is an online vendor attached to a dealer in Texas. This is where I bought all the panels for my widebody conversion.

If you are in or close to a big city, check upholstery shops for an estimate to re-skin your existing dash with quality material and quality adhesive. You "may" find is cheaper in the long run. I just did some pieces to upgrade my 1LT with a 3LT look. Here's the place I used in Oklahoma (mine is the vert they show in the video).

Good advice in post 7 above - at least worth checking out before ordering new parts.
And if you end up needing a specific VIN for a 2LT equipped car with a HUD, let me know and I can PM you my VIN number. I do have black with light gray stitching.

Unfortunately, the leather dash issue started with the C6 generation & continued through the C7's & into the C8's
