I know, this one guy probably totaled his GP and is parting it out. But, the same guy I'm trying to get the HUD from is also selling a DIC. Can someone take a pic of a 00 DIC so I can compare. Also, as with the HUD, the wiring is present for a DIC on a GT that was not equipped with a DIC to begin with, right? Thanks yall.

It's hard to say... some people have found the other wiring harness for the digital DIC buried in the dash. I didn't find it in mine, and I didn't want to hassle with running wires, so I sold mine. But as far as I know, you'll just have to pull apart the dash and look.
I believe that the DIC's were the same for most model years, except it differed internally and the '97 model PCM won't read '98-'03. I also know that GTP DIC's don't have a Trac/TCS button. Other than that I think they were all the same.
Hope this helps.

So that means I would loose manual control of my Trac system? Yall can keep the DIC, then.

Drummerboy, I believe this statement is false. I have a 2002 GTP w/ the Digital DIC, and I do have the TCS button on it, for manual control. I believe if you have a GT, the wiring is already there for the digital DIC, if not originally equipped. The only GP that doesn't come w/t that wiring would be for the SE, I think. I would recommend looking @ the back of the digital DIC in a pic. then @ your wiring in your car. This would insure you have the correct connections b/f you buy the part.

No problem Andrew, I was just giving my input as well. I am no genius about these either. I only know what my car has on it. Heck, I was beginning to think mine was special

Ok, so most sellers on ebay will take pics of the back side of the DIC if I request it? Also, DIC wiring harness, is it normally just laying back there like the mystery ABS sensor discussed a few weeks ago, or will it be like the radio harness? I have a Hayne's Manual, and they have crappy pics.

From What I have seen, it should be just sitting right behind the dash, fairly close to your current DIC hookups. If not, then your car probably doesn't have the wiring to support the digital DIC. I don't know if there is a certain year cut off, like on the ABS/speed sensors, for this part of the harness as well. I have never dug into them too deep.

If you don't have it right in there, it is possible to wire it up, you just have to splice the wires from the old and new connectors, and run a few wires from other stuff (1 from the speedo, 2 from the manual A/C control, and 1 other wire). I have a wiring diagram for it that I found on the net, if you want it, I can email it to you.

Any info?

The 97 DIC did not come equipped with the TCS button. I looked into this when I purchased my DIC from a 2001 GTP.

I also want to know if a digital DIC from a 97 can be spliced in... I have a digital wiring diagram that I found but I wanted to know if it works for all model years from 97-03 or what?
