If you want the Buttons and Airbag to work? NO

If you want it it too look cool and pretend your driving a Vette YES




The Airbag Datacables are different in the last few years on the vette.
You will not be able to tap into the F-body SRS data cable.

if i did one it would be with just the airbag and no other controls on it....

and which year vettes have the same kind of interface with the airbag as our fbodies?

i thought it was just (+) and (-) and make contact and boom?
