Default Corvette Insignia on the rear Windscreen

Has someone noticed the small corvette emblem pattern on the rear windscreen. You can see it if you look closely. I'm not sure if its just the vette i saw in the dealership or its with all of them.

My salesman told me there was 2 or 3,000 of them on the entire car...Headlight, window borders and other hidden places...I found the headlights and back window as you said, but have no time to count them all...

It's a pretty cool detail. I noticed them back in March, 2013, and confirmed them at the NCM Bash in April, 2013. I spoke with one of the C7 engineers at the Bash and he said I was the first person outside of GM to notice them.

When I picked my car up from the dealership the salesman pointed them out to me. Not easily noticed!

They're a nice detail, but their a pain when you're getting the window tinted.

I know about the Crossed Flags on the headlights and on the rear glass. I'll have to look for more.

There are a plethora of them on the rear window. It's been discussed here before. Definitely a nice touch compared to the typical dots that were on the rear window of the C6.

Next time I see a C7, I'll have to look for them. Hadn't really noticed it before.

Yup. I think they are pretty cool. Do a search on the site (I know its not the best) there have been a few threads about it already.

As someone mentioned earlier I think tinting started the whole thing because someone was having issues with the tint adhering to the window.

The one above the headlight I think is pretty useless and that little hole where the light shines through I could have done without. It doesn't look bad, I just thought it would look better without it and it doesn't really add anything.
