Does the IIci even support VGA? Curious, seems doubtful as it was introduced in 1998 with the very first built-in Video implementation for the Mac. The VGA spec was released in 1987 while the IIci was in development.
It works with some VGA monitors. For example, the old Viewsonic 14e and 15e CRT models from the early-mid 90s.

It will not, however, work with the Apple Basic Color Display which was a .39 pitch shadow mask, VGA monitor with a Mac to VGA adapter attached. It works fine with the original 14" trinitron and the Apple Color Plus Display (14", .28 (.26?) shadow mask).
