I know what you were asking. I'm not sure if 1st gens have the same set up as 2nd gens. but it is your travel info. mpg, distance, temp, trip time, miles till empty, compass.
My intrepid doesn't have the otis but I have seen them in many junkyards was wondering if anyone knew if the wiring is in place on all intrepids so that I could put it in. Thanks in advance
Not sure if it's the same once again for the 1st gen as it is for the 2nd gen, but when I installed my otis I needed the harness.
So when I found another otis I pulled it, and the harness that was in the car. It was simple to pull out took about 10 minutes to get everyting I needed.

ok.. its a relatively simple thought that can get complex..
you need
1. A premium BCM
2. Otis
3. Harness
4. Headliner - Not needed With the Short OTIS only the Long..
Unlike the 2nd gen cars the 1st gens have a buldge in the headliner specifially for the otis. So you have to change the headliner out. This only applies to the Long otis.
Harness isn't hard as you'll have the headliner out.
The BCM goes behind the knee bolster on the passenger side. Grab a friend as it can be a bit of a pain to remove.
Its not hard, Just work intensive.. Also make sure if you need to change to a premium BCM, that it isn't alarm enabled.. thats a whole other can of worms..
It is defianatly worth the trouble, trust me on that. I got the short Otis so I didn't have to mess with the headliner. Your best bet is to grab all the parts from either a newyorker or LHS as alot of those had the short otis. ( you may end up with one with sunroof switch but that is minor, it is just an extra switch.)
Same here and once you have it you'll wonderin how you went without it. I got went the easy way and just took the headliner also with the pre cut hole and wiring so it was all plug in play good luck with your install
