Due to a poor original design, the left plastic mounting pad on the C5 Knee Bolster is prone to breaking. When it breaks, it causes the knee bolster to hang into the foot well which is both unsightly and annoying. This repair kit will fix any C5 Corvette’s sagging Knee Bolster in minutes. It is equipped with an aluminum, reinforcement plate which is designed to replace the broken plastic mounting pad to hold the knee bolster in place. Installation is quick and easy and requires placing the aluminum plate over the stock alignment stud and drilling three holes into the Knee Bolster with the included drill bit.

Worked great, easy to install. Bolster is back in place, solid and good as new. Lots cheaper than buying a replacement bolster, if you can find one.
