Frank, we gotta talk!!! Send me your VIN in a PM if you'd like to know a few things about your car. As a fellow 2005 300C SRT8 owner, I'm curious to see where you fit into the 252 + 11 pilots that were built.

Please tell me you still have the ORIGINAL 2 piece front fascia/lip spoiler!!!

Sorry, can't answer your question on the VES, but as you may be aware, that and TPM's are the ONLY differences in 2005 and EARLY 2006's.

Bernie

Yes you can install the VES . There is a harness that replaces your sirus radio only harness and includes the VES plug to the center console . Then you just install the player and screen in your current console plug it in and away you go . Now I am pretty sure Mopar sells a complete retrofit kit with all the parts needed . I am sure its not cheap but it is doable

Just sent you a Pm #78!

BTW, grunt works at the Brampton Assembly Plant, so he knows what he's talking about re the VES thing.

Yes you can still use your sirus , the new harness just has one extra plug on it for the VES system

Rage, you could find the whole kit on ebay for a lot less than the dealer.

Here is an example so do your search : eBay Motors: CHRYSLER 300 REAR SEAT DVD 300C (item 150122878398 end time Dec-11-07 09:42:42 PST)
