Premium Molded pad is an option.

I found it fits well, has many slits for the various options and the retainer holes align well.
I do not like the foil but did not take the time to trim and the rubber face texter can be massaged it needed with a pray on Plastic coat to alter it as others have done.

Quiet Ride makes the only pad that I would even consider using in my opinion. You have to buy through their dealers which is not a big deal. Part number GMF 6869-HC. More expensive but way better than the other generic crap. https://www.quietride.com/web/viewer...mf_catalog.pdf

I did go with the Quiet Ride option and purchased through Camaro Central. Interestingly I first received one for AC labeled as W/O. They sent me the correct one and never asked back for the one for AC(GMF 6869-AC) which is equivalent to Camaro Central Part#INT-1102. In case anyone is interested in it, will sell for half price $125 + shipping...
