Ok. So i recently picked up a '91 240sx hatch that i'm slowly going to restore and clean up a bit to use as a daily driver..and i was wondering if anybody knows if theres any aftermarket climate control units out there.

If not then how would i go about repainting/restoring the original US 240 climate control unit? (and no i don't want to put the JDM digital one)

suggestions?

Solder blue, red, yellow, amber, ext LEDs into the board. Only thing I can really think of doing to it.

id just hit the local junkyards man, you would be surprised at some of the things you will find there, every other S13 I have run into had a clean climate control, I just never bothered to pull one out myself because mine is in excellent shape.

damn. thats pretty sick.
only problem i have with that is it doesnt look natural..i dont think it'll fit where the A/C controller normally goes.

i do like some of the other products that company has though..might be interested in those later on.
