No, the little thing in the dash with the car on it and that tells door ajars and all that. There a nicer one with a digital readout that tells MPG, range, boost, and all those different things (depending on GT/GTP).

You may have the plug for the digital DIC behind the dash, wrapped in foam. There's a list of DIC part #s and other info here: http://tbcgp.clubgp.com/gpparts.htm

Nice job on the dash! thumbsup

I like your dash but im not a fan of painting it a diffrent color, I just clear coated mine so its shiney, but yet still matches the color of rest of interior...and as far as all that black and shine on that I dont think that looks good with cloth seats that you got. First mod I'd do in that car would be to upgrade to leather..i mean i saw somewhere you can get 1 seat for 50 dollars and not much shipping either...

Nice, did you sand the trim down and primer it before you did the paint or did you just paint it.

I have some left over black paint and clear coat from when I did my rims.... devilgrin I;m wondering...

yep. sanded it down and then used a primer. put only 3 light coats of black on it and then 2 coats of glass, did the same with my vents. pretty easy.
