Default Interior Updates
With the the help of forum member Stealth02 I was able to successfully install the C7 automatic shifter. It needs a little bit of fine tuning but overall it’s really great. This is such a nice upgrade in overall aesthetics and feel. Awhile back my best friend and I put in the C7 seats and D-shaped wheel. More upgrades to come.....

The wheel looks to be an aftermarket product, right? Or is it also a C7 piece?

I wish it was a C7 wheel. A good friend of mine made this wheel. It’s a modified C5.

Just gotta find a 2014-15 auto shifter so it doesn't say 'Eight Speed' on it.


Looks nice though. Definitely an upgrade over the awful stock **** with its gigantic button.

Thanks guys. I’ve made a lot of changes the last few years and after 16 years of ownership I still enjoy the heck out of her.
