Default Could I get some help please?

Will the C6 rotors (front and rear) fit on a C5 without modifications?
And will the e-brake hook right up ?

Someone is selling a set here locally and claims they will fit without modification....
Thanks for your help.

The stock C6 rotors are the same as the stock C5 both front and rear. Make sure that the ones offered are not the Z51 or Z06 units which are different (larger) sizes. The Ebrake is internal in the rear rotor housing and is not modified from the 5 to the 6.

Thank you for your response.
My friend has a stock C5 and he found this set for sale on Craigslist.
The guy who is selling them claimed they will fit my buddies C5.
We called two local Chevy dealers and they were no help.
So then I thought..."lets run this question on the forum"
We have been getting mixed responces, so I think he is still on the fence post about buying them...but I did pass your information to him.
Thanks again.....Scott

Additional question on topic,,is there a size difference if both C5 and C6 have Z51??
