Thanks for the websit and glove box tip. I'm looking at a silver c5 vert and want to be sure it's my flavor silver. I see many cars listed as quicksilver but don't see that color on the southern site. Any idea why?

Well don't be confused as Galaxy Silver and QuikSilver are the same color , ect that Galaxy was on lesser models and pre 2001 GM. I have seen some websites that call my QS Z06 Galaxy Silver. Go figure.Your silver is a lighter color than QuickSilver( as on my 2001 Z06). Two things I do is to see the GM parts and your neighborhood auto paint store. DupliColor paints has QuikSilver as Galaxy Silver, I've found they are the same.
