Why the desperate need to know this? Are you buing one of the First C7s and going on a road trip?

I've never been embarressd about my cargo cover. I actually like the cargo cover. I've had those ones that retract and roll up and I honestly prefer the C6 one over the other options. The only thing it needs is something to weight the front down at the floor or an additional attachment point so it doesn't flap with the windows down. It's basically the most elegant solution possible, and as with other aspects of the Corvette, GM gets blasted for not making something more complicated and less functional - just because. |

He just trolls around looking for something that doesn't have a definitive answer yet. Loves the drama, controversy, and creates more clicks. Also, needs something to be negative about! :eek:

I hope this is not the case and that GM actually spent some time resolving this pretty embarrassing issue, especially in light of world class interior revamp. :ack:

There is no time to fx the embarrassing cargo cover while they are working on the embarrassing lack of all wheel drive.

edit: Now that I look closer, the front mounts look different as well. C7 open hatch http://forums.corvetteforum.com/atta...psed00b220.jpg C6 open hatch http://i381.photobucket.com/albums/o...s/09e36c22.jpg |

If this open hatch C7 Coupe picture is any clue, it looks like the cargo cover rear mount points in the hatch are closer together than the C6. Probably to match the narrower hatch glass toward the rear. Otherwise it appears it will be a similar type cover and mount points. :flag:

I asked this question in Detroit and was told that the privacy shade would be in two parts.
Here's a mocked-up image based on what I was told. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/memb...ade-139124.jpg |

That would not be on the top of my list of questions if I happen to be able to attend a viewing of the C7. I don't see why you are so concerned about it. I have on on my C6 and with the windows tinted you can hardly see it. Don't you have anything else to worry about????

The GM cargo cover is just about perfect. It's opaque, it's inexpensive, it's super-light, it will store easily in a corner of the trunk or door pocket when not in use, it allows air flow in the hot sun, you can clean it in the wash, and it will accommodate oversized objects by stretching. Rigid and roll-up covers are worse in every respect.
It's basically the most elegant solution possible, and as with other aspects of the Corvette, GM gets blasted for not making something more complicated and less functional - just because. I agree with the second and third quotes. I too have had other styles of cargo cover and the C6 version is the best I've seen. |

This is actually very helpful, it seems the shower curtain is still there, no high tech solution that would not flap around with the roof off.
Maybe you could kill two birds with one stone and just utilize a electronic window film that would go opaque and hide your stuff while blocking the sun. That high tech enough? |

Well good, it is not tops on your list and you have no info. Don't you have anything else to worry about than criticizing others for asking questions that you do not find important? :crazy:

Is a cargo shade really that big of a deal?
