Hey "Taste Pohhlees", Pewter 99, Good Morning Sir,

How about as a substituion..." Show me a man who won't tastefully apply oral gratification to his Significant Other (hmmmm yummy), and I'll steal his girl"

Like that one you old prude? (Inernet subtleties I was told by another erudite Forum member...now who was dat?)

Just kidding, Pewter 99...yeah, I know there must be "Good Taste" boundaries.. (and I bet it tastes good!).but how about a little harmless fun (albeit risque) for us "still cookin a nd always lookin" ole timers?

Best Regards,

Bernie

Default Can someone Include the "How To" on this DIC Customization?

Can someone include for the newbies the link or document that states how to do this DIC Customization?? I assume this level of detail is not mentioned in the Owners Manual.

Just Curious. I used the C6 FAQs page and followed the forum link for "Customize DIC". It had a picture and statement from "Tracy" which included an uploaded image of her steering column showing "TRACYS CORVETTE" within the DIC so I know it can be done. No link in that forum on how to do it either.

Just curious. Thanks in advance.

I do believe that the owners manual will give you all the info you will need to take hold of this DIC deleama that presents its self to us.

jchaney007 - I don't remember just where in owner's manual the info is located - but its there. You are limited in number of characters, so plan ahead and be prepared to take a little time to input the new message. Only one line is possible. But it is fun to do if you can come up with something unique. To display the 2 different messages, only have to press button 1 or 2 on the driver's door.
For me:
FOB 1 says "NCM Delivery"
on FOB 2 (the wife's) it read "Where is Glynn" - took her about 2 months before she realized I had changed it - she thought the car really was asking for me? I thought it was very funny - she didn't ... so I've changed it for her to read "07 All About Jackie" (last year was my year) - peace reigns again.
have fun and remember the wave.

Thanks I will review. I downloaded the 2005 Owners Manual PDF format and will search it for the details! Thanks again!
