Solstice HVAC controls in T/A Anyone have any knowledge of how hard it would be to swap these into a T/a? I'm not afraid of some dremel work or some fabrication, im just unsure of how the solstice controls would interface with the TA setup. Does anyone know if the solstice is electronic or a typical mechanical/vacuum setup?
here's a link to the solstice gallery at the pontiac website

Looks real good in the soltice but like blackbyrd said, may look out of place in our cars.

They way i see it, the "on button" for the A/C on the solstice is a pushbutton on the center of the temp control ****. Same with the "recirc" in the fan speed ****, and defrost in the air flow selector ****. The defrost would be easy since it's just an electric switch, but our f bodies have the a/c "on" and "recirc" incorporated into a **** setting.
DAMNIT now i have to go take my hvac controls out and inspect it. I'll take some pics with some notes, if anyone can get any info on the solstice setup, please chime in. Maybe together as a team we can get this done. (man that sounded

Same reason for swapping factory exhaust tips for some chrome ones. I want to due some subtle changes to update the interior, since it's been almost exactly the same since 93. Yes the originals still work fine but if it's not to terribly involved, then i'll do it.
Now i just have to figure out if it will match the tv monitors im putting in my ram air intakes........
