1969 Convertible Carpet Replacement Question
Just curious to know if there is a difference between the carpet kits for a convertible vs a coupe?
I was going to buy a new carpet set from Al Knoch and it looks like they only offer one part number that covers all 68-75 corvettes. Does not mention anything about a different part number for convertibles or coupes.
Also does anyone have any good pics of there rear storage area. I'm just curious to know how the T shaped piece of carpet that covers the floor in the rear look when you lay down the rear floor carpet. Do the flaps on both sides just kind of lay up in there and cover up the hatch springs and does the carpet just come up to the bottom of the Astro Vent housing?
Thanks for any information you might be able to provide.

Just put my carpet in this week. I just pressed the ears of the t to cover the springs. Also I just stopped the carpet right under the astro vent section. I played with it a little trying to get it to make the bends so that it covered right under the vent area, but decided against doing it. Good luck. :cheers:
