Default AC *****?

Ok I have a 98 C5. Not Dual Climate Control. I saw some AC Dual Control electronic systems for like $200 on ebay. Are those compatible with my car? Like this

Question #2.

I actually broke my **** on the right, the **** to choose if u want it defrosting, on ur face, feet and face, etc. Where can I find a replacement? Ive been searching everywhere.

For your first question, as long as the part or assembly numbers are the same, they should be interchangeable.

For your second question, you could email Gene Culley (http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...highlight=gene) to get a replacement, or I believe SSInserts sells a nice set....

No actual experience here, but I'm certain that there is more to "dual control" than the electrical circuitry. Exchanging the in-dash unit won't be enough.
Additionally, I have dual air and fail to see it's value. What I'd like to see are better dash vents/louvers so you can actually shut off the air on one side or the other.
