    Thanks for the compliment … I think 😉 So like you I got a copy of latest map updates so I’m leaving in 2014 ! Lol But all kidding aside I like your idea of the Bluetooth. Might take that on this winter as well. Thanks for the info … cheers 🍻

    I’ve heard many different opinions about this. Some people say it’s fine. I honestly can’t believe the clarity on mine. I was expecting much worse. Maybes it’s my “trifocal lenses ?” Lol I’m not overly concerned. It’s a “gadget”. It was a good project to start me off in this car 👍

    2008 Corvette is done

    Can I ask where you sourced the HUD kit ? And which stereo you installed ? … I’m just starting out on this adventure myself. And bought an 08 Base. The intake and exhaust have already been upgraded. But I want the HUD, steering wheel with controls and the newer Blue tooth steering wheel. Want...

    Welcome, TimboC6

    Thanks so much …. It’s funny what I “thought” I wanted to get in a Vette and what I actually ended up with. Was “definitely” getting a C7. But fell in love with this one instantly ! Reminded me of my first car experience…. 😉…. 20 cars ago !!! 🙃
