New member.... 2003 Z06, recently purchased. Had a 1981 Vette back in the 80's for a few years, loved it, sold it to raise some kids, so this is my second Vette. I'm an old hot-rodder, grew up in it, lived it, got the t-shirts. Was a car audio installer for about 20 plus years, also back in the day. Worked on countless Vettes for basic and custom installs. Looking forward to many years of fun with the Z. I've shopped this forum for info on several occasions and have gained some great points. Thanks to all who post advice! I've started some modifications to the Z, including of course custom audio system, and also repairing some of the typical C5 issues that you folks have shared valuable information on.
