Default Active Handling

Hey all,

My 97 C5 doesn't have active handling.. is it even possible to get it installed after assembly?

Active Handling was not available until the 1998 Indy Pace Cars were released.

I don't believe it would be possible or cost effective to try to retrofit Active Handling.

I asked a dealer in Sacramento before I bought mine w/o AH and he said not possible to retrofit. Oh well, next one will have it.
