runt Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Ok. So I have a chance to get my hands on an Automatic Climate Control that came out of a 96 Cutty. It's w/out the Dual Zones if that makes a difference. I am just curious (if anyone knows this..) but I just have the regular knobs 'n such for my controls, but will this Auto Climate Control just bolt right on? Such as no extra wiring or messing with the front facia on the car? I have a feeling that this is a dumb question, but never hurts to ask!! Thanks! Jeremy Quote
cutlassdude96 Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 well I dont if its every thing will work right but to get the outside temp to work you need the sensor mounted in front in between ten bumper and the raditator. Quote
kfahn Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 post a picture of it cause i've been thinking of a conversion like that but i have never found a newer auto-climate control out of our years of cars! Quote
runt Posted October 16, 2003 Author Report Posted October 16, 2003 I'll post pics of it if I get my hands on it and when/if I put it in. I am still kinda unsure at this point. I talked to a guy that works at a yard and he's gonna take a look for me and see what he comes up with. Quote
luminator94 Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Your gonna have to put a couple sensors inside the vehicle also. In order for the Auto climate to work, I think its gonna need two sensors somewhere inside the vehicle. :? Aaron Quote
runt Posted October 16, 2003 Author Report Posted October 16, 2003 Damn...maybe I'll scrap this idea till I know for sure if sensors 'n such come with it. Quote
cutlassdude96 Posted October 17, 2003 Report Posted October 17, 2003 I got a pic on my www tag, and on of the sensors goes by the cluster Quote
runt Posted October 17, 2003 Author Report Posted October 17, 2003 Well I also found a module like that on E-bay and from the pics I dont' think that it includes any sensors or anything like that. I'm just afraid that I would win that and not be able to use it b/c I don't have the proper sensors. Quote
runt Posted October 17, 2003 Author Report Posted October 17, 2003 I do like the way that it looks in your interior, and LOVE the leather inside Quote
kfahn Posted October 17, 2003 Report Posted October 17, 2003 i love the leather in there, i'd love to have that in my car, and i am now wondering whether that unit will fit in a Prix, also, I wonder whether that would be a direct plugin Quote
supreme_style21 Posted October 17, 2003 Report Posted October 17, 2003 I'm guessing that looks way too big to fit in a GP. Quote
Steve94CutlassConver. Posted October 18, 2003 Report Posted October 18, 2003 I hate my auto climate control , you have almost no control , my 300zx had a decent auto climate , but my cutlass one is too slow to make changes , espically in the summer . I just turn it off and drop da top . But each to his own . It is just so much easier to turn a knob ( thats what she said ! ) . Getting ready to sell my 94 cutlass convertible with 58k miles . Sell while its still running good ! Quote
runt Posted October 18, 2003 Author Report Posted October 18, 2003 So it takes a long time for it to change temp? My parents have one in their 02 Mercury Mountaineer and I personally thikn that thing is great! Thats why I wanted one for my car. Quote
toastemcutlass Posted October 19, 2003 Report Posted October 19, 2003 i also love mine and i think the digital display looks better but you need a pre 94 unit to have one with the blue tint to the desplay other wise it looks cheap, but any ways the auto climate control has a "vent" under the glove box that sucks in to read the inside temp so you would have to add that.

cutlassdude96 Posted October 19, 2003 Report Posted October 19, 2003 thats for the 94 and older cars, 95-97 ones are different Quote

Yeah I had that in my '91. Loved it. But my buddy's '97 GP.. I hate that thing. Its too difficult to bring back under control if you accidently push the wrong button... air starts blowing out at 100 mph from every hole, changing temperatures.. blah blah. I don't like the new ones. Quote
kfahn Posted October 19, 2003 Report Posted October 19, 2003 those things are great as long as you know how to use them Quote
jeremy Posted October 30, 2003 Report Posted October 30, 2003 here is a pic of the one in my 97 Cutty.....I love it BTW Quote
