Ghost Recon ZO6
Discussion
Hey guys
Just to share some info,some of which may not be to everyone`s taste but will try hard
Sold my other ZO6 a while back,missed it bad so had to get another one.
Got solid plans for it,will it turn out as good as my kenne bell ZO6 em probably not,but will try hard on that score as well.
Pictures tell it better than i can so might get a bit boring lol.
As purchased.
I intended to drive it some,then Dale and i did the interior swap,which kinda made me do a new head unit install while the seats and lower dash was out,removed carpets to run wires to the rear of car.
Also needed to replace the quick shifter,on the drive home i never did see 5th and 6th,their in there somewhere,was going to use both hands to shift into 5th but bit dangerous that.
Used a c6 ZO6 shifter in my 01 reasonable throw and real smooth,so ordered one and now installed.
Was chatting with my nephew (paint guy)lol ,well with the interior out kinda do the repaint now.
That does get a bit complicated ref the hood,which needs to be suitable for a blower.And a bit expensive all in one go,with new rubber seals,door seals,emblems,speed clips,front spoiler parts,even replaced the air inlet wiper tray thing,all that seems to make the car look new.
I really didn`t want to use all the old lights,front corner,rears etc,so yeah more bucks.
Ordered the hood,but painted the stocker anyway.Took about a week of evenings taking the thing apart,unreal the amount space all that takes up when removed
Cheers for now.

This is a really interesting thread. Looks like you'll have a really great C5Z after all your mods and refreshing of the worn bits.
Its also spurred me on to do my HUD install (bought form VHR). I finally picked up the last bits to complete it last summer.

Cool mate,if you are going to use your dash top you will find it has a u shaped ridge on the under side,kinda makes it easier to cut out the right area.
Only bit that could give you aggro is screws hidden under the screen vent,think the vent just pops upward,then you can get to the screws.
Also maybe remove the two nuts holding the column ,allows the steering wheel to drop a tad more,giving you more room.
