telescopic steering
Curious if it's possible to install a telescopic steering wheel from a regular C5 vette, on a C5 Z06 with a memory package. I was told that the unit that powers/controls the telescopic wheel is located under the seat and part of the memory package. I have been trying to find information on this, but haven't had much luck. Just wondering if anyone on here might know if it's possible, or has done anything like this? Any information would be helpful.

It can be done, just make up your own wiring harness, so it would work independently of the SCM.
I have all of the stuff to do it as I was planning on doing it to my Z, but decided I would rather sell and hope the C7's turn out great.
If anyone's interested in buying a telescopic steering wheel I have one for sales and can also provide you with a schematic for wiring it up.
