Finish Your T-Top the Right Way—Down to the Last Detail
That sleek, glass T-Top on your late C3 Corvette isn’t just for looks—it’s a precision assembly of parts working together to seal, align, and lock your roof into place. One of the most overlooked but essential components? The Bayonet Pin Tongue Cover. This small but critical part conceals and protects the tongue of the bayonet pin where it enters the roof assembly, preserving the integrity and function of your T-Top.
This direct replacement for GM part number 473202 is designed specifically for 1978–1982 Corvette models with factory glass T-Tops. Whether you’re restoring or just replacing a cracked or missing cover, this part keeps your T-Top system looking clean and working right.
The bayonet pin tongue is exposed to repeated motion and environmental stress. Without this protective cover, dirt and moisture can cause wear or corrosion over time, potentially compromising the fit and function of the T-Top. Plus, let’s face it—an uncovered pin just looks unfinished.
