I am about to buy a c6 ****, but it just occurred to me that the c5 might be nice. I HATE it in c5s but it might blend in nicely in an fbody. Thoughts?

It probably has been done, and it probably looks terrible.

The best place to put a C5 **** is in the trash.

If you are talking about the one that is flat on top I wouldn't do it. I drove my cousins and I hated it, it just felt awkward being flat on top. C6 is pretty sick tho

I've had a C5 shift **** in my T/A since 1998. This is the only picture that I have of it and it's kinda hard to see. I like it though and think it looks and feels good in my hand.
