we got it to work....took 2 days and finished 2nd day at 9 pm....this was the first c6 the audio place had done and he had quite a time getting the nav, xm, etc to work with the new amp......as the interface module didn't work with c6s....diamond amp...all new speakers....and duel sub in trunk that is quickly removable....sounds great.....if anyone else tries this ....I'll hook u up with the audio place as how it's done if need be.....
