    '04 radio/cd player question

    So, I got my harness and adapter from Double D Mods yesterday. They sent me the PXDX and PXHGM4 ($79.99 and free shipping). Expecting a "Peripheral", I got the "iSimple" This is the kit I need to pair my SONY MP3 player with the factory radio. If you have an IPOD, it will be a different harness...

    Rear Speaker

    I just checked mine out. There is a small difference in volume levels between the rear speakers, but not very much at all. I chalk the difference in volume (with mine) to being the fact that the driver side speaker is behind the seat, and point towards the passenger side, thus the sound/volume...

    Driving

    Here's what I've noticed with my C5 compared to my other cars...'82 Camaro Z-28, 305/auto, BFG 215/60's, I could drift this car any time, anywhere, dry roads or wet, gravel or pavement, very very controllable. My '69 Charger, 440, 727 auto with stall, cammed, geared, and carb'd, built for the...

    Soft water to wash and rinse my Vette??

    I've read a lot of articles on washing, waxing, drying, detailing etc. The one piece of info I don't see any discussion on is the use of soft water. I've been under the impression since day 1 that the 'spot free rinse' at the car wash is soft water, but recently I heard that it is iodized, and...

    '04 radio/cd player question

    Is your sub box the kind that fits flush in the center compartment? How does is sound? Are you running a 10" or 12" sub? Where did you mount the amp for it? Lots of questions, but I cant seem to find any info out there that relates to stereo systems in convertibles :( Thanks!

    '04 radio/cd player question

    Hell again! Thanks to everyone for the info, input, pointers, advice, and opinions! Here's what I ended up doing...I ordered a Sony NWZ-E465BLK 16gb mp3 player (Walmart $74.98), and a Zune C5 Corvette install kit PXDX/PXHGM4 from Double D Mods ($79.99 with free shipping) As far as I can...

    '04 radio/cd player question

    So Texasred, are you saying that the ipod adapter on the radios isn't factory? When I was researching Vette's and looking at the factory options, I never seen a radio with ipod input as an option. Reference the ones on ebay, I figured maybe they were radios from like a Trailblazer etc that would...

    '04 radio/cd player question

    Hey Paul, My factory unit doesnt have the ipod adapter, but I've seen radios on eBay that do. I've been throwing the idea around about replacing my unit with one of those. It would be a lot handier than trying to keep track of the cd's :) Thanks for the suggestion! :thumb

    '04 radio/cd player question

    Hey there everyone! On my 04, I've come to realize that my factory radio (Bose) will NOT play any of my personally burned cd's. It just displays the ERR code and ejects the cd. It does however play the store bought cd's perfectly every time, no problems at all. I have an 04 Suburban with the...

    Warning! OK, so I am now OCD over my 03

    Texas Red, The only thing I think I would add now is gas in the tank and digits on the odometer...which is usually followed up with new rubber on the back sprockets LOL!! :thumb Enjoy the Vette and Save the Wave! :w

    '04 HUD cover needed

    Good evening Marcus! It's the part I found is the whole assembly. A new unit is about $280 through a place in Pennsylvania. I really don't want to spend that much since I just need the glass piece. I haven't been able to track down any other posts here at CAC with this issue. I haven't tried...

    '04 HUD cover needed

    OK, so I found a used HUD that is no good, it's broke, and for parts use only...The glass is good, which is what I'm looking for. Does anyone know if this piece can be removed easily without breaking or cracking it? It appears to just rest on the little felt type molding. I'm sure it's glued...

    '04 HUD cover needed

    Hello Andy! I have given that some thought but haven't taken the time to really check in to it. I need to get the manuals for the C5 like you recommended. I hate to tinker with things for fear of breaking something. Replacement trinkets for this thing are spendy!

    '04 HUD cover needed

    Hey Tim. The glass was gone when I took deliver of the car. Nothing appears to be broke, and I cant see any evidence of that piece in the bottom of the hud. It's just gone :confused

    '04 HUD cover needed

    Hey all! :w I have an '04 of which the clear plastic (or glass) piece that covers the HUD mirror is missing off my car. NOT the square bezel piece on the dash, but the clear curved piece that protects the mirror. The HUD functions properly, it's just exposed. Anyone know where I can find...
