Default Can I put a C5 head unit in a C4?

I know most of you guys are thinking I'm crazy, but I would like a simpler, less busy look than the after market units.

Does it fit in the same space?

Do the amps work in the same way?

No. C5 radios don't fit. They are din 1.5, not double din.

No, the C4 BOSE is unique among radios.

The C5 HU will not work unless connected to the car's BCM.

You could probley get a Camero or firebirds head unit to work. They are simler to the vette but don't hook into the computer I think

Nope. The C4 is unique and unfortunately to fit a camaro/firebird one would take a team from nasa a week to get to be compatable.
