Default C6 Bose in to C5 Bose

I have the Bose Double Din radio out of my 2005 C6 and considering putting it to my 1999 FRC also with the Bose radio. I already have the DD bezel. I wonder if anyone has done this swap and if it will be a plug and play operation ?

Wont work. Both the C5 and C6 have integration of the radio with the BCM. The BCM is not the same in both cars.
Also the C6 NAV radio is behind the times compared to good aftermarket radios.
