Default Is this TAC from a C5 or C6 vette?

I bought this about a year ago from someone at a swap meat. He had a box with a few of them in there, and i grabbed this one since it was the nicest. I've noticed that most the other C5 TAC that i see don't have metal and are just completely black. I've never seen one on a C6 so i'm not sure about them. The connectors that plug into it are the same.

So is this one from a C6 and not a C5? I'm using an engine and harness from an 02 vette, and if it is from a C6 will it work? Or do i need to try to find and purchase one from a C5?



thanks,
Steve

I was thinking i got it last spring, but now that i think about it , it was actually more like october when i got it. Chances are still C5 but i've just yet to see another one with the metal bracket attached to it.
