Welcome!!! Get ready to enjoy the experience, your new Corvette and the Action Center!! A great bunch of individuals here, lots of knowledge, gobs of experience, and just a little insanity!!:happyanim: :CAC:welcome:v

There are push tabs (4) around the perimeter that allow the frame to pop out. No screws...

There were no models of the C6 Grand Sport made as close as far as I know. Greenlight produced a die cast C6 Z06 that could be converted to a GS Coupe but that is about it.

It doesn't run to the trunk, it plugs into the back of the radio where the CD deck would have plugged in. Yes, everything you need is included. The cupholder mount is very slick and hidden when you want it to be... I use my iPod Classic with 160G of music!! I could probably listen for the entire...

Just an FYI... Our friends at Mid America Motorworks have a complete iPod adapter system that comes with a mount that utilizes the "cup holder" in the C5 console. It isn't cheep, but it looks and works great. I have one in my 2004 Z06.

There is a good chance that the "diode trio" in the alternator is bad. It is pretty inexpensive and easy to change, while apart changing the brushes would make sense too.

I've got a 2004 Z06/Z16 you might be interested in... turned over 20K on Saturday! Absolutely mint!! :happyanim:

Probably an idler or tensioner pulley problem.

DEXOS is a GM specification or "grade" of oil, not a brand. Mobil 1 meets the DEXOS qualifications that GM has demanded, as do other brands.

RIP Jim, WAY too young to go... I have fond memories of the welcome parties at his shop in BG before the Bash. He will be missed! :beer

You and your wife would love any of the C5s. The trunk space in the vert is great, as long as you keep the top up... we loved ours!! :thumb

One huge negative for me with the GoodYears was the wet hi-way traction. My GS hydroplaned horribly at 34mph on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. A combination of the negative camber angle and garbage tires. :mad

With the aggressive factory alignment, I only got 12K out of the fronts on my '10 GS! NO track days!! I changed over to Michelin Pilot Super Sports with a less aggressive alignment ( 0 camber) and am now getting reasonable tire wear!. Bottom line, the Good Years are junk and the GS has a VERY...

Go for it!! spring rates, sway bar diameter, and shocks should be the only differences; along with a more aggressive alignment. You may want to opt for the Sachs shocks from an '04 Z06, they were by far the best. Just remember, that base vert IS heavier than the Z06, so don't expect miracles...

Check out the Recaro line of child seats. Super quality, we've got them in two different vehicles. :thumb

I have heard that RockAuto Parts Catalog is the best! :thumb

​I'm jealous!! I've got two Vettes, a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and an Avalanche in one three car garage... Plus the grandkid's stuff, two snow-throwers, work bench, roll around, emergency generator and refrigerator!! :D

Ford folks aren't ALL bad... :chuckle

BINGO!!! :thumb
