tloftus Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Does anyone have pics of their Driver Info. Center install? I have one on the way but don't have the "correct" install spot in my '89 Cutlass (under the ashtray). Looking for some ideas on where to put the thing! Thanks!

Dirty Rockstar Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Is he doing the install of a DIC or a DIS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tloftus Posted September 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 I've seen it called both, I'm talking about the info system that sits under the ashtray and will read your MPG / Tach / etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 DIS = Cutty system DIC = GP system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supreme_style21 Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Whats the deal with always calling out the different acronyms? I can't see how 'info system' and 'info center' can be completely different things. I know they do different things throughout the models, but the references sound to be the same type of item.

Dirty Rockstar Posted September 9, 2004 Report Share Posted September 9, 2004 Its because GM in their infinate wisdom wrote Driver Information System on the cutty models.. lol.. Pontiac always called things w/ a car outline a Driver Information Center.. Who knows.. Just goes to show what happens when the left hand doesnt know what the right is doing..

I'm just saying that it is always called out. I think Pontiac called the 94-96 ones a Trip Computer, so we could throw that one in there and confuse things up a little more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
