'92 LeBaron GTC and EVIC module question

Hi folks:

Looking through some literature about my '92 LeBaron GTC convertible, I noticed that there was an option for an EVIC (Electronic Vehicle Information Center) to be installed below the radio.

I have searched and searched for an EVIC to put into the car, but I have yet to see a LeBaron that actually had one installed.

I am wondering if Chrysler truly manufactured this EVIC module for the LeBaron?

I currently have the two button "traveler" installed ... but his EVIC (according to the owners manual) has 6 buttons and displays more information.

Thanks

Clark

My 92 convert. has this option, but it's only recently stopped working. I'm now looking for a computer module to replace it. Without it my radio, tach, cd and tape plus info center don't work

Thank you for the reply. Sounds like a BIG project if I ever do find one of those EVIC's. Do you think some of the wiring would have been done even if the EVIC didn't come with the car? My guess is that it wouldn't.

Thanks for the reply. I do appreciate your help.

Another project I had in mind was converting my 'premium audio system' in my LeBaron to the Infinity system. It seems like I would need to re-wire each speaker .... plus I'll need to find an Infinity head, too. Any experience doing such a project like this?

My 1990 LeBaron Convertable HAD the Infinity system but some doof of a previous owner replaced the head unit with a cheap CD player and tossed the fancy speakers for some junky ones that have really large magnets. He cut the wires off the 4-wire plugs and connected the new speakers to the speaker + wires and the power ground wires for the speaker's amps. It sorta worked...

I got some "premium" MoPar speakers out of another convert at a junkyard and soldered and shrink tubed everything he'd just twisted and taped together. Now it sounds pretty decent, especially with the speakers connected to the proper wires.

Fortunately he did not cut the factory plugs off the harness, but cut them off the head unit and connected the CD player to the radio's plugs. The same yard has an Infinity sedan with the Infinity stereo system, including speakers, but it has a tape and no CD in the head unit. Some nut cut the wires on one door speaker so I'd have to find out what to solder back together. I kept the four wire speaker halves of the plugs that the doof connected to his "super" speakers.

Speaking of speakers, would there be any behind the two dash grilles with the Infinity system? A couple of the converts in the yard have had those grilles yanked off and it's obvious they are for speakers but there's just cardboard blanks screwed in.
