Considering it is currently only in the XLR and Corvette, plus you need to program the Tranmission Control Module, you would be hard pressed to find someone that retrofitted one at this point. Maybe in the future, but the resources to do so now are not out there.

a TCM reprogram is a given, but yea i knew the chances of someone being able to do this yet are slim to none.

If it is only used in the XLR and Corvette, then I am guessing there is not a tailhousing out for it? How would we get around this considering our differentials are in the back of the car...unless someone is going to do a C6 suspension swap.
