HI! I have one '92 and two '91 Trofe'os. I am thinking of installing a VIC from one 91 to the other that did not come with the option. Has anyone done this swap or a similar one? Do all the Trofe'o come wired for the VIC? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.......David :idea:

uhh...didn't you click the link?

Visual Information Center

For those not familiar with this, it's a color CRT touch screen used to control the radio, climate control, Navigation and other features.

Yes, it is a cool option.

i certainly wish GM had made this option available on more models. Amazing technology for the year.

actually the link above for the auto shop was an install from an '88 model that did not even have the vic option that year, not to mention the manual tranny and supercharged engine, now THAT was an install job! The 91's and 92's w/o VIC do indeed have the wiring for it so it's relatively easy to put one in. If you don't have a service manual, you're gonna need one.

and yes, the VIC option is one of the coolest I've ever seen. Radio/Climate controls and Information center wrapped up in a touch screen CRT. They stopped using it because the "general public" found it confusing.

I'll never forget the first time I saw a Trofeo with one, I was like "what the hell is this car??? ... must have one..." I still don't though :(
oh but I will... :)
