I had my local stereo shop install an Alpine 9840 cd/mp3 player. It was less than $200. installed. He did have to use a Bose harness which cost an extra $25 or $30 though. The sound is so much better than the Bose was.

My local shop had to make a kit for my '91. I didn't have the Bose, although the code said it should have been Bose. I hate the Bose. You will enjoy switching, unless you buy junk.

check this link out, its the c4 FAQ
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=941281

Good info there. Let us know if you still have any questions. Basically if it's Bose, you will need adapters of some sort. Sorry, I'm not too knowledgeable in the c4 dept

I agree I hate bose as well. That's why no piece of it exists in the car now, except for the grills
