for the whole hvac box... yeah you'll have to remove the whole damn bar. and you'll have to loosen the coils from the engine side. and it also involves having to dump and refill the a/c coolant as well... which is why i think single temp is the way to go. rudy told me that it should be possible to do the swap without having to touch the coils, but i found that to be impossible.

one of my quirks of the system are that when i hit the off button, all the lights are actually still on and i'm able to still change the vents to front, lower, etc. i'm unsure if all of that is supposed to work normally like that since i always forget to ask someone with a brz to show me how it works normally. my second quirk is that my driver side vent still blows air when i tell it to only push air to the bottom. i'm not sure if it's a vent issue when i was messing inside the hvac box, or if that's normal? hopefully we get more people to chime in if they've done this and can answer those questions.
Thanks!

That is a whole lot of work. I still kind of want to attempt it. Summer Project maybe.

I haven't messed with it when off at all. I will go see if mine operates like that. Mine doesn't leak air like that. So I don't think it is normal.

edit: Okay, I am still doing some research on where to get the right connectors. Once I am positive it looks good, I will post the Excel file.
@phanguy I checked, and I can change the direction of air when the panel is off. I wonder if it allows fresh air in a bit and that lets you control where it goes?
