You're from Europe so better look at ebay.de or seeberger911.de - it'll be not so expensive. Shipping cost too

I will take the one from eBay I think. I also noticed that small thing behind unit (blower sensor). Do anyone know can I use mine I have now or I need different one for A/C system. As I saw from picture that one from eBay doesn't have blower sensor!

the one with 2 buttons is for 993 (compatible with 964, as the original one is no longer produced)

Alex,

The unit with the 2 a/c buttons is the 993 unit - which is what Pelican are selling. This unit can be used in a 964 but I believe there is a small wiring change to make - it's detailed in Adrian's book.

Regards

Dave

Cant decide which one to get. The one from HERE or the one from eBay HERE . eBay item is cheaper for 130 euro. But I`m not sure how hard is the wiring bypass you mentioned.

The wiring bypass is pretty easy. You jump two pins together. If it were me, I would go for the two button 993 unit. I have a 993 unit in my cabrio and a 964 unit in my coupe. Both work fine but the 993 gives you a couple things that the 964 unit doesn't. The 993 unit gives you the ability to run the AC on small snow flake (intermittent) or large snow flake (max). It also runs the air fans at a slower, quieter speed until you turn the thermostat to full heat or full cold.

Bottom line - Either will work for you. The 993 just gives you a bit more options. Don't worry about the wiring change, its easy.
