a/c control relocation.
The a/c control in my '01 is down at the bottom of the stack, just in front of the shifter. I would like to move the climate control up to the spot above the radio which is currently occupied by the cupholders. So if you have the proper bezel for the a/c control to be up there, and I have the proper bezel for it to be down in the angled portion of the console, maybe we can just swap bezels? I don't know.... I'll look for pics of the 04 setup to see what might be different. Also, the hardware in the back may also be different.
They come in several different locations depending on your options. You may not need a kit of any kind. Just move it up or down to allow your double din installation. You can certainly have the installation business move it at that time.
Sorry, I forgot about this. I'll take a pic this weekend and check to see if I can move mine up to the top.
I just took out the climate control unit and cupholders and both bezels. The climate control bezel is shown below. It is ~63 mm tall and has angled sides, so it would have to be in the bottom spot on the center console. In addition, to make your a/c unit work in the bottom angled spot, you might have to cut off the plastic screw ears on the bottom of the unit (on mine, only 2 screws, not 4, hold it in place along with some clips near the back).
My cupholder bezel is 70 mm, so if your a/c bezel is that high, then I think it will work for me.
The thing at the top of the pic is from the cupholders, but I'm pretty sure it's not useable for the a/c unit because the a/c unit is secured in a different way.

Looking at more pics, if you have the cupholders that are are in the slot with the a/c vents that is about 1/2" high, then I think your bezel will work for me. I was thinking that you had the older cupholder cassette like mine that occupies a full DIN slot.
