@lbriais thank you for your comment and working out a solution to get a matching header/etc. That works great and I've implemented it successfully in my own script.

@ros-financial-com I added automation to my script by using a variable in the beginning and setting it equal to $1 so that way whatever parameter I append after the script execution, it will go grab that version and install it. I do this because some systems may be on an older version and you will want to match it against your installed version IMO, as well you may not have Guest Additions installed yet on the machine so you may not be able to query an installed version.

Example: Running ./vbox.sh 6.0.4

VBOX_VERSION=$1
curl -O http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/$VBOX_VERSION/VBoxGuestAdditions_$VBOX_VERSION.iso

Would grab and download

http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.0.4/VBoxGuestAdditions_6.0.4.iso

FYI - if you need the latest version of the guest additions is available in the repo:

sudo yum -y install wget
cd /opt/
sudo wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/LATEST.TXT
sudo wget -c http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/$(cat LATEST.TXT)/VBoxGuestAdditions_$(cat LATEST.TXT).iso

Above might not be the best syntax, I dunno. Anyways, IMO, it feels a bit cleaner to grab the version info from the same repo that we're wget-ing from.There's also a LATEST-STABLE.TXT.
