Default New bowtie guy!

Well, I've decided to join the dark side! Just a few weeks ago I traded in my Shelby GT500 for a new C6 Z06. I figured if I was going to buy my first Chevy I might as well go big. Anyways, it's been just about two weeks and I couldn't be happier with my new car. Figured it was time to join some Corvette forums so here I am

However, I could use some help. My car didn't come with the standard Corvette owner’s manual kit. My dealer only had the owner’s manual and warranty manual. They tried to order a kit from Helm. However they are not able to obtain the full kit, including the leather case and CD. Does anyone know how to get correct owner’s manual kit, or what the part numbers are?

Thanks!

Welcome to the Forum!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations on your C6 Z!! That's quite a jump into bow tie land. If you didn't know, there is a separate Forum for C6 Z's but I think your best bet for learning about the basic idiosyncrasies of the C6 you need to spend time in the C6 General Forum. Hope you enjoy the car and the Forums.

You can ask your question in the C6 General Forum for advice. We do have a couple great OEM parts vendors here who give great service and discounts; Gene Culley at gmpartshouse.com and Kevin at partstaxi.com. They have threads and posts running all the time in the General Forum. They may be able to help you figure it out.
