Default Shoulder harness pad

Do any of you guys have the after market shoulder harness pad you can buy from Corvette supply houses? The ones that wrap around your harness belt and have Corvette logo's on them. Do you like them? Are they any good? Or do they look a little weird? Just wondering and may consider buying them if they're something of value.

I bought a 1995 about 4 months ago. Come with a new set of the embroidered "Corvette" pads that velcro wrop around the shoulder belt. I have not noticed any higher level of comfort, but you have to slide them into position every time you get in the car, and frequently on longer drives. More a visual upgrade than a functional, in my opinion.

The worst part of C4 is how the seat belt hits my neck.
No adjustability makes for some discomfort on long hauls.
So the "sheepskin" covers are very helpful.

I bought them when I owned C4, and bought them for my C6, and bought from Amazon cheapest in town.

As i understand it, the 35ths all had white seat belts. I've seen some higher mileage cars out there, and the belts look rather dingy. A logo cover may be a way to take less notice of that.

One of my other cars came with a sheepskin cover. Previous owner felt the same way, but that thing drove me nuts and I tossed it in the trunk.
