Default Swapping Climate control heads

how universal are the Dual Climate heads?
i.e take one from a Trailblazer (size aside), will it work in my C5? I doubt if it will plug right in, as long as the pin I/O's are the same, that would be a simple matter of making a molex connector.

I don't have the answer to your question, but if you are changing it because the LED's are dim, there is a DIY fix for that. The surface mount resistors have bad solder joints. Easy fix.

Yes, I am aware of that fix. I've fixed mine and soldered a few others.
I was wondering for general info, just passing through my skull, so to speak.
