Default Some cool C5 install pics

Just putting up a couple pics of some work a friend of mine has done on a couple C5's for you guys to check out.

a double din Kenwood touchscreen molded into the dash with an Escort radar detector display down where the ashtray usually goes


trunk of a C5 'vert, black vinyl with some black carbon fiber vinyl thrown in to break it up a bit


this was in a Z06 trunk

same install from a different angle with the amp covers off to show the JL Audio amplifiers


I may have some more, I'll post them up if I find them. I know you guys like seeing different setups that people are using. Any questions or comments are welcome!

they all look awesome. I love the first trunk one, of the vert i think. I do like the look of the CF to break things up

thanks, I've been lurking around here and posting every once in a while since 03. My friend Rocky did all the above installs BTW. I've been wanting a C5 FRC since forever but the money hasn't worked out. Now I'm back in school so at least a couple more years, good news is I may be able to pick up a C6 by then

Thanks for the welcome! If you're ever in the Houston area give us a shout at Rockstar Designs by all means!

I'm gonna try to get some pics up of some custom pillar tweeter mounts done in a couple of C5's as well.
