I recommend you get the bypass before you have any trouble. Here is a link to a youtube video

It only effects the '05 with the manual transmission. If you have a manual then you should get the bypass if you are having the problem. More than likely it has already been installed if your not having the problem.

Only 05 M6 cars have the steering column lock so if thats what you have than yes get the eliminator module.

Only w/ manuals, there's now a permanent fix: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...n-from-gm.html

On GM's dime so take TSB# to a dealer, put this to bed forever.
