Default What is this?


Any thoughts one what this is? Found this in my new C8 while cleaning the interior the other day. It was between the driver seat and center console. I imagine it is a gauge or a spacer of some sort used in the build process. Picked car up at the museum. Only text on it is ‘TITAN’

That’s a gauge from bowling Green probably dropped by a person doing assembly. Or possibly a tool for tinting windows.

What would this tool be doing in a new car right out of the factory do you think? Do they use the squeegee to dry the windows or clean them?

I had my windows tinted after delivery. Just didn’t make the connection based on where I found the tool.

Would have never guessed it was a tool used in window tinting, but I have never watched a tint installer do their job either.
