My radio/cd player will not hold stations to memory. What are the best upgrades suggested by other C5 owners? I would like GPS and possible a back up camera! Thanks Guys

HI Gary
There is many options for you for double din radios.

You will have to have a modified bezel to fit it just so you know.
We can either modify yours or supply you with a replacement as well.

I am a Kenwood fan for radios. Kenwood uses Garmin for NAV and to me the best built in NAV options.
There is also the option of using Carplay or Android Auto as well for NAV from your phone displayed on the screen.
Advantage of doing it this way is less in cost for you.

questions I have for you to help you pic out a radio would be
BUdget?
6.92" or 6.95" screen
Built in NAV or using your phone
DO you have a coupe Vert or Z06?

If you like give me a call sometime and I can go over whats involved and give you options and pricing.

LArger 6.95" option installed(Kenwood)



Smaller 6.2" installed(Kenwood)


Stock bezel next to one of our modified bezels.



608 854 2033 if you would like to call and discuss all your options.

Thanks
Dennis

I've got my eye on this as well - FM only is KILLING ME! My Z06 has zero bass and limited fidelity (well, sans the titanium exhaust).


Love those storage bags on the seats in the first pictures...
