The extension is just a set of 5 wires with a female pin that connects to the HVAC head and a male pin on the other end that plugs into the factory plug. I needed to do this on my Feather console, not sure whether it's necessary for Al's console. The wrinkle is that the male pins are $3 a pop from Porsche and only available from Germany, the female pins are 50 cents each. And I've only got enough to make the 1 set I promised to Jeff, if he in fact still needs them.
So A) if your conversion needs the HVAC fan connector extended so it'll reach, B), you can wait 6 weeks or so, and C), you don't mind paying ~$25 in connectors, wire and shipping, I can make up a couple of sets.
Or anyone can order the pins, the part #'s are:

Don't need them now. I'll be glad to pay for the connectors though if you went and bought them. You can pay it forward to someone. Let me know.

I ground out the side of the center console until the plug fit. Had plenty of room.

AMP/ Tyco Electronics made those pins/ connector in Germany. I think they are still available to request sample from US and they ship it here from Germany. Don't say it's for Porsche application because if it's designed exclusively for Porsche then they won't give it to you.
I made the same request for BMW specific pins and connector to build the harness for my Navigation and TV harness retrofit in my 740.
