Default new stereo navigation screen

I have a 99 frc with the boss system. Does anybody know if u can get a 7" or so screen installed where the old radio is? I see retractables are an option but I was wondering if you could get the look of the c6 and newer versions with the in dash stereo and navigation system

The quick answer is no. Flip screens on a C5 Corvette will block off the center AC vents so its not something people want to do.
You can however have your din and a half radio bezel modified to fit a more modern nav system and head unit.
The absolute best guy around for this service would be the Owner of Double D mods. Dennis. He is a great guy, bends over backwards to help people, even those who did not buy from him. He is a supporting Corvette forum vendor and one of the top 2 or three vendors on this forum. He has the best prices, he is very reachable, the absolute best customer service and an absolute nice guy

I converted my 99 coupe with his products and guidance.
