Default C6 Bose vs premium Bose

Hey guys. Sorry for the stupid question but I'm getting ready to install an aftermarket nav unit in my dad's C6 coupe. I'm trying to figure out which interface I need but I don't know if he has just the standard Bose or the premium Bose. I know I can use the PAC OS-2 for the standard Bose but I need to use the OS-2 BOSE if he has premium Bose. How can I tell which one he has. I'm looking at the window sticker for his car and it says 3LT preferred package and under that it has a listing for 6 disc CD changer, MP3 player, Bose Premium 7 speaker system.

Is there an easy way to identify one from the other?

If you plan on using the stock amp/speakers, all C6 have an amp that needs line-level inputs. That would mean you need the 'Bose' interface adapter regardless of you having the Bose or non-Bose stereo in the car. For the interface units that have different instructions, use the non-premium diagram when hooking everything up.

If installing new amp/speakers, get the non-Bose interface.
