Do I have everything to make this thing work?

[visitor]

Ok went to the P.A.P today for a washer fluid tank for a buddies blazer, and in my search I came across a 91-93 grand prix SE (b4u) with HUD. it was tore apart pretty well already, with the wires already cut, but I grabbed the unit, the adjuster, and the metal bracket.. is this all I need-

 

It is going in a 1993 grand prix STE, so I DOUBT ill have the plugs already there, so im hoping I can wire it in.. should be do-able, correct?

 

Also- cost for it all was $10. Was that a fair price?

Good price. If its not pre-wired then you will have to wire it in which is do-able.

 

Looks like you got everything you need to make the HUD work. You will need to cut a hole in your dash for the HUD. Unless you grabbed the dash that originally had the HUD.

was just searching the how to section and came across this-

"Q6. Someone told me there were two types of 88-93 DIC's! WHAT?! NO!

A6. Yes, it's true. There are two types of Grand Prix DIC's. From 88-90 they used a multicolored LCD type display. From 90-93 a single color vacuum florescent display was used. STE's also got specific DIC's which had a complete lamp and door monitor."

Will this monitor still work with my car? (1993 ste) i dont care much about the lamp and door monitor, just normal..

I'm going to stay it will still work, but you won't have the lamp or door monitor.

Thats fine with me

[digitaloutsider]

It will work just fine. The lamp/door monitor will not illuminate.

Im not having much luck in my search of the forum- does anyone have a writeup (with pics would be great, but take what i can get) of how to either- tear it apart to clean it, OR how to install it (mainly wire color to wire color)?

Here is a video that shows how to disassemble and clean it.
