The Igla works in the C7. Guy had it installed on his C7 Z06

It looks like a good solution. Local shop is quoting me roughly $1,500 installed.

I’m getting it installed as soon as I have time to drop my car off. Hear to many horror stories about C7 getting stolen. Id feel terrible if I don’t do everything I can to protect my Z and something happens. I’ve been thinking about the Igla for a longtime I highly recommend it before it’s to late. I may even get the compustar alarm system as well to pair with it

I use all three when my wife and son and I go out of town and no one is at home and the Stingray is in the shop behind my house. In the third photo, the Stingray is chained and locked to the lawn tractor. We have security cameras inside the house and in the shop, as well as all sides of the exterior.
