Yes, I am doing the liners as well.

All the links I have seen are for either a FRC, Vert or Z06. The 2 I have seen for the Coupe were completely useless, information wise.

Yep...just looked back at mine and it was the "Tubbing a 2000 FRC C5..." from the tech tip on the forum.

I'm sure yours will be the bible us fellow coupe owners use!

Hey-I figured I would just have Rodney at rpm swap mine. Although I think it was as hard to talk him into doing it as the job was-Rodney may disagree just a little with that but it is a far greater car today

Okay, I have to ask. What would be the difference between tubbing a coupe VS and FRC, besides the speaker enclosures.

Trunk support is in the way instead. Speakers are not.

Wow while you were posting and cutting up your car I was meeting with Chris Roy who came out to my house and gave me a check to fix the roof destroyed by hail last month, he spoke great about you EG and I do not have the ***** to cut up my Vette. Nice catalog for those that have the know how on this and I await like the rest of the forum for the finish of this step to the reincarniation of the Grond
