Default Will C6 stereo mp3 fit in C5?

I honestly do not know one thing about the stereo of the C6, but it is mp3. Will that unit plug into the C5 to give it mp3? Is it a direct connect situation or would a lot of stuff need to be changed?

Please someone let me know on this. I would really like to have mp3 in the C5, but I want it built in.

Not likely. First the C6 is a dbl din unit...C5 is a din and one half. Next comes the BCM part. I highly doubt it will work. Not to mention just to buy a C6 source unit alone will cost an easy dbl to five times as much to purchase a nice aftermarket unit that plays MP3's.
