I'm thinking that your talking about the VIC is the Vehicle Information Center... Its the display unit between the radio & the ashtray.

You have to hold the "set" button while the time/date is displayed. Use the set button to change each section, then select to cycle through.

Hope helps with this.

If you also have the analog clock in your gauge cluster change the time on it first and the computer shoul set itself after you have changed the time on the analog clock.

Hi,

I have the same car, and also don't have a manual. I found out to set the clock, pull lightly on the dial in front of the display. The display will blink and all you need to do is twist slightly to set time, date, etc. Hope this helps! How do you love it so far??
