Default Climate Control Head Unit Change Out

Soon I'll be changing out the HVAC control unit. Does anyone know if I need to pull apart the whole dash or is there some easier way. Tkx.
Jeff.

It's not that bad. You just need to loosen up the console section. The main dash stays put.

Great news. Tkx

Do you happen to know if there is any reprogramming required?

Check the sticky dept here. I seem to remember a how to on doing that, but basically open the console lid and there are two screws to remove, one on the passenger side by the brake handle, and of course all the electrical connections depending on the options you have. I also believe you need to put the car's shifter in neutral, if an automatic.
