I just did this last night. I got my DIC out of an astro van at my local pick n pull. Mine had the 9 pin connector, but pins 7 and 8 weren't used. Pins 1-6 are the same from left to right on each overhead console, even though the wires don't match up, so keep those in order and splice those together. Now you should have one wire left that you need to run. Take a length of wire, atleast 5 feet long. Now run this from pin 9, through the headliner, down the A-Pillar, into the dash, until it reaches your OBD II connector. Now your going to have to pull that little plastic cover out where your feet sit, its 4-5 7mm bolts. Now pull that down and look for the purple wire. Strip the insulation back just a bit, and splice your wire that you ran from pin 9 into it. This is your serial data bus, where the overhead console gets all of its info from. Now button everything back together and your good to go! When your done, you may notice the compass function says C on it, all you have to do is find an empty parking lot and drive in a circle a couple times, it'll program itself. Good luck and happy modding!!
