He wants to modernize the look, to install a modern NAV/Head unit into his C3 all the while relocating the existing gauges and retaining them ... stop me if I'm wrong ... I have been looking to do a similar thing. I will be modding mine, but not this year though I have bought the Head unit. I have seen many console/dash mods that look no better than a piece of covered plywood but the gauges never seem to make it into the new design.

Retro sound makes a plug and play head unit that will install in place of your stocker, as said above but "no nav for you!" There is a thread on the forum where a member used a Tablet as a head unit and more not sure if the gauges survived?

If you find a way to move ahead, post some pics we would love to see what you come up with.

You and I are on the same page. Look at post #11 on this thread:

It shouldn't be too hard to fabricate a new center panel for this.

Corvette America sells one for the DIN radio but it's pricey at $250.
