Looking to add Driver Information Center - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Assume you mean the Instrument cluster
Your truck is a 1st gen GMT800 (1999-2002)
GM made a serious change to the electronics and gave the GMT800 pickup trucks interior a facelift in 2003 including more functionality in the DIC.
The 99-02 1st gen T800 electronics are not compatible with a lot of the 03-07 2nd gen T800 stuff.

Things to keep in mind.
The 1999 & 2000 Escalade was a late GMT400 platform SUV.
The 2002-2006 Escalade was a GMT800.

Given the above I would think you need to look at the 2002 Escalade for a swap cluster in your truck and it probably won't have the DIC functions of the 2003-2006 clusters.

Maybe someone else has a bunch more information but that's what it looks like from the cheap seats.
