You can buy the rear C5 emblem for about 15 bucks at your favorite Chevy stealership and install it on the inclined pad between the seats. Looks good,

The waterfall itself won't mount. There's nothing in a coupe to mount it to. I have a vert now, but in my 98 coupe I put the emblem as described above and it looked great.

Yes they are for or hard top, Auto Buffs sells them... I'm going to order one soon and have them airbrudg the logo on, I hate the look of the emblem. They have done a lot for me in the past year and do the best work by far!!!

Yea, they look good. INMHO I would rather spend the money on something else, but to everyone their own.

I just bought a waterfally emblem from a CF member. I dont think its gonna fit though. Its so rounded, and the surface is more flater . I think the hood or trunk emblems would work better cuz they're flat too. The water emblem is too rounded and won't sit flat on the surface...

Default Waterfall

I bought a 98 coupe in july that had a bolt in waterfall. I wasn't crazy about the look and it made it more difficult to reach into the back from the front seat. The carpet had to be cut to install the bracket but the previous owner gave me a new one in case I wanted to remove it. Took a couple pic's before I removed it that I can email if you want to see how it looked
