Great Job! I really like the photo of the tools where you can read Made in USA.

Haha, didn't even realize that when I took the pic.

Glad this is still helping some people out!

Yeah man, this is a huge help for me. Tomorrow I'm installing a new Pioneer H/U that I bought from Dennis at DoubleD Mods.

I've got your pics and instructions all printed out. If you lived in my area, I would definitely buy you a beer. Heck, I'd buy dinner, LOL.

Again, many thanks for taking the time to post good pics and explain the process in detail. Kudos

EDIT: I copied and pasted cdkcorvette7's terrific instructions from post #1, then edited, then saved as a 9-page PDF file, which is available for download on my server. The file size is about 1MB, not too big. Here's the link to get the PDF file: http://csgbenefits.org/C6_Console_and_Radio_Removal.pdf Right-click, then "Save as"......

looks great

is there a similar write up for 2008+ consoles?

Chevy-SS

My car is a 2008 and I used the write up as shown. I did notice a few small discrepancies, but got my new H/U in with no problems at all. Hope this helps...........

You Sir are a godsend. My C6 shifter locked up while on a trip and when I trailered it home I found your post and I'm on the road to replacing the automatic shifter. Thank you for taking the time to help us all out. I salute you.

I have done this so many times I can get it out in 6-7 minutes. I have had that in and out so many times lol. If anyone needs help in the RI or MA area hit me up, I would be glad to help

hi guys, do you guys know if a 2008+ radio/shifter console will fit a 2005 c6?

From the Looks of it it seems it will but not 100% sure

Thanks in advance

Yes they will fit.

Sergio8A

Thank you Sir. Appreciate the Quick Reply.

It will fit, but your airbag indicater light will not have a spot in an 08 console as the airbag light was moved to the rear view mirror. I moved my light to the glovebox above the keyed switch. I made a little box for it, if you need pics i can take them tomorrow. I will say it looks soooo much better than the cheap looking silver. Good luck

Great description, this will get me to the point where I need to replace the AC (flashing) control unit. Is there a TSB to rectify the flashing or do I need to replace the unit still? If I replace the unit myself will I need any reprogramming from the dealer, or is it just a plug and play? I had a price for the dealer to replace and they want $680 for the unit and $165 labor, what a rip off. I see the genuine replacement on ebay for $330.
First time replying here, but many time reader, great forum.

It's a simple plug and play. Can be changed in 15-20 minutes. Buy yourself a used one and save a bunch of money.

swowls

Thanks, Does the quick change include getting the center console and trim out of the way? Looks like there are probably two mounting screws and then just a bunch of connectors at the back?

Correct. Pull the trim off, remove 2 mounting screws (maybe 4... Can't remember) and unplug. Pretty easy.
