Thanks Cat, if you find a link please post it here? I searched a few key terms and really could not find what I was looking for (although I'm sure it's there somewhere). Just trying to save some time if anyone knows or can post a link to a prior info thread. THanks!

It can be done, a bunch of members have done it. I won't do it cause I like replacing my cracked rotors each year and being lighterweight. The C5 rotors weigh 6lbs more per rotor than the standard C4. Here's a link to the kit, it requires a special bracket. http://www.vbandp.com/detail.aspx?ID=292

You'll need...
#1: You can buy kits from Ecklers or MidAmerica or
#2: Shop around using EBay, GM, etc.
I found the calipers and rotors on E-bay, pads from Hawk, caliper brackets and adaptors from Upfront technologies. The mistake I made: Hawk pads did not come with the anti-rattle parts. Dealer sells them with brake pads as a brake pad kit. I now have replacement pads for next round
