Driver Information Center Connector - 2001 Chevy Venture

The Driver Information Center Connector was found taped to the headliner when I upgraded the overhead console. For me, it was a plug-and-play operation because I got a 'new' overhead console from a 2003 Venture.  During my research, I discovered some minor differences that I have noted below.

I don't have any detail as to the inner workings of the DIC, so I do not know what would happen if a older DIC were installed in a newer van (or the other way around).
