There is a way to modify the column to accept other wheels. It has been discussed, posted and explained many times, I'm just not sure which of Vette forums has it? Don't give up, it can be done w/o replacing the column.

Here's a link to a kit: ADAPTER-KIT-TILT & TELESCOPE COLUMN-76 |...
I needed one a few years ago, mine came out in too many pieces to use. An early 76 replacement was too expensive for me $400+, but found a smaller one that fit and was ok. Never going to be a NCRS Vette, so it worked out fine.
Good luck in your search.
First off, thank you for all your comments, very much appreciated.
Another question - are there any aftermarket exhaust systems or air filter systems that may void these warranties? I know most of us change out both of these fairly soon and was wondering if GM had any issues with them.
Question on these GMPP Major Guard warranties:
What is the advantage to having one of these on a new Vette that also has the extended 5yr 100K powertrain warranty? Would you be paying a premium for coverage you already have?
On the fence -
I have one of these: Corvette C6 Bra, Corvette Bumper Mask, corvette bra , so far only problem is - my DRLs will sometime protrude a bit in cold weather, other than that it's like wearing nothing at all ........
If you determine it is the radio, you can contact http://www.doctordons.com/index.html and have your original repaired for about the same price of an after market one.
Just another thought. Let us know what the problem was.

I use a magnet on the inside of the back glass and put the sat antenna on the outside. It doesn't move around, looks ok and seens to work fine.
Good luck
Hi Steve - I read through this guy's site about some other things but remembered something about a mirror fix he did and maybe it will shed a little light on what some guys have done.

Here's another site for the fix...
I remember seeing a video on youtube in re: to a simple total trans fluid change on a C4 by Gordon Killebrew. It may work on a C3 as well, but I don't know of anyone ever doing it. It might be worth a shot to look into just to see what it's all about.
Good luck and keep us posted - :w
Thanks for the tip, I'll give that a try. I'm using a magnet now that I place opposite the antenna on the rear window. Seems to be working OK, but I like your idea of keeping it inside.
:w
I have an adapter similar to one that Guy has, (from PIE elctronics) but the biggest problem I have with the XM is in finding a decent place for the antenna.
Good luck
Give them a call, I believe there is a way to do it. I've also heard that even w/o the 12 disc unit installed, the wiring harness may have been included on the head unit. I'm not sure where the easiest place would be to verify it though.
