Default HVAC control delete plate

I have been searching for this and can't find it.

I am looking for a part number for the HVAC CONTROLS delete pannel if there is one. Maybe a 1LE part number since I am pretty sure the early LT1 1LE cars did not have heat either.

Car is a 96 so needs to be for 93-96 Camaros.

I am thinking about doing that for that and the HVAC plate.
Just buy a sheet and take it up to school and cut them out.

Bet I could find a scrap peice at school for the control plate.... aircraft grade sheetmetal

Send me your HVAC Plate and for a small fee i'll hook you up with one of these..... (not the gauges just the holes)..... you'd have to buy the gauges...

This is on a 95. show me a pic of your 96 plate and i'll make sure it's the same...



It uses the original HVAC controls panel with the guts removed so it looks factory....

And FWIW, the 1LE did have heat and all the normal HVAC controls... just didn't have A/C. The panel was slightly different cuz it doesn't have the additional switch position for AC. So they used a V6 camaro panel since AC was optional on V6's but standard on all V8's.... I know cuz I've got a 1LE
