They will work, but some 'leave-in' types were not staying put.

The normal puck and hoop idea still works great, though.

The aluminum jacking inserts from a steel frame C6 won't fit; the necks aren't long enough. The aluminum frame on the car is thicker. I was able to keep my Z06 pucks and they work just fine, but the ones from my '05 don't fit at all.

I use the leave in style plastic pucks from SCP and they've been great. Highly recommended.

Thanks all, I just ordered a set of the plastic "leave in" ones from Southern car parts.

I transferred the SCP stay-ins from my C6 to the C7 and they fit fine, though fit a bit tighter on the C7. They were quite loose on the C6, reportedly to allow water to be released from the frame, but I think there's enough looseness on the C7 for a water escape.

Has anyone used these pucks on the front and rear jacking areas? They seem to have two holes on each end to accommodate pucks.
