CORVETTE C8 ROOF complete
Complete” Roof for the C8 Corvette requires a distinction between the Coupe (Removable Targa) and the Convertible (Retractable Hardtop). For your inventory at Buy Mustang parts Ltd, a “Complete” unit must include the interior headliner and latching mechanisms to be considered showroom quality.
1. Coupe: Removable Targa Roof Options
The C8 Coupe features three distinct factory roof styles. A “Complete” unit arrives with the weatherstripping and latches pre-installed.
| Roof Type | Material | Features | OEM Part Number (2026) |
| Body-Color | SMC Composite | Matches vehicle paint; most common. | Varies by Paint Code |
| Transparent | Polycarbonate | Tinted blue/smoke; “open-air” feel. | #85004257 (Fabric) / #85004253 (Suede) |
| Visible Carbon | Carbon Fiber | High-gloss weave with painted edges. | #84400536 |

Interior Trim Check: When listing, you must specify if the headliner is Fabric (1LT/2LT) or Suede/Alcantara (3LT). The suede headliner is required for 3LT models to ensure the interior texture matches the A-pillars.
2. Convertible (HTC) Complete Assembly
The Retractable Hardtop (HTC) is a complex mechanical system. Unlike the Coupe, a “Complete” assembly for a convertible usually refers to the painted roof panels and the articulating hinge mechanism.
-
Components: A full system includes the front roof panel, the rear “tonneau” cover (nacelles), and the six electric motors that drive the folding sequence.
-
Weight: The entire HTC mechanism adds approximately 77 lbs to the vehicle compared to the Coupe.
-
Service Requirement: If you are selling a used HTC assembly, the buyer’s vehicle will require a Top Calibration via GM’s GDS2 software to ensure the sensors recognize the new motor positions.
