For those of you with early cars that remove the AC **** and put a gauge in there, what did you use to retain the fan control? My car doesn't have A/C anymore but I like having that switch for the good airflow (alot more flow than the fresh air **** which I will not be touching).

I would think that a 4-position switch mounted somewhere on the console would work but I'm not sure considering all the funky wiring that goes on behind the dash...

 

i don't even have the switch anymore hehe. mine's hooked up to a 3 way switch on a switch panel

 

did you have to eliminate one of the fan settings? keep in mind by 4-position i mean off, 1, 2 and 3 settings

 

I would guess that you would not need a button for off. If you do not use the rear wiper switch you could route all three (speeds 1, 2 and 3) to buttons where the rear wiper and two dummys are next to the mirror selector.

 

You could go the early 924 route...they have a slider for the fan control.

 

i was thinking maybe something there, or up where the fader wheel goes (currently useless with my sound system)

 

This sounds like a good excuse to buy something from the12voltguy.com. He's got all kinds of switches and other cool stuff. You could even mount a multi position switch in the glove box or under the seat if you wanted to hide it.

 

yea i only have low and high now. not a big deal since it's not my daily driver.

 

I think the real question is 'what type of gauge are you putting in place of the fan control ****?'.

 

thinking A/F gauge...

<----

 

Could probably just extend the wires going to the stock switch, and move it somewhere else. Easier than trying to reverse engineer it and find a switch thatll work.

 

the thing with that is that the early ac **** has a monster electrical connector on the back of the switch (this thing is huge) and i dont know if it would fit anywhere else.
