Headliner for Transparent tops for C7

When I purchased my new corvette there was a constraint on the matching colored roof panel. I have only the transparent top now. Is there a headliner for the the C7 transparent top or will the C6 headliner fit the C7 transparent roof panel? Ntherapy

I'd like to know too.

Only reason I went with the clear top is to keep the boss happy.

I hate it!!!

No one as of yet makes a headliner for the C7 that I've seen. The C6 liner is probably similar in shape and likely could work, with perhaps a little trimming. Another possibility is use an opaque vinyl decal on the interior surface. It would keep the transparent top look from the outside, yet be more like the carbon tops inside. I think the 3D carbon look would be a sharp one to go with! Or maybe something to match the exterior color of your car. And as deep as the tint is, I really doubt you'd see any signs of the adhesive through it from outside.

thanks that has been helpful. I have applied the static cling liner and it is working well. It hasn't gotten above 85 yet here so I may go ahead and order the insulated one. There about a one inch difference (to small) around the transparent roof panel using the C6 on the C7.

Based on a few inferences I've picked up on several vendor websites, I think the next 2-4 weeks will see a large increase of available aftermarket Stingray parts and accessories. Perhaps a C7 specific liner will be one of them.
