Interesting piece of innovation from Carbone Liveries (no affiliation) to replace the slider HVAC controls with something more modern/easy to use.

I could see this being popular if 1. The price came down and 2. Options were given on **** style, e.g. chrome / no chrome.

Maybe someone like Singer would pick it up as part of their builds?

wow that's cool i follow them on insta but didn't see this. they make some good stuff.
i'm not sure but i may prefer the mysterious workings of the oem setup.
"all part of the charm" as i say to the bride as she expresses her miscellaneous complaints.

Wow, someone spent a lot on R&D to work out a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. Although on second thought I still have to stare at the HVAC controls each time to figure out how they function.

Uhh, no.

Spot-on.

I just start flipping switches, twirling ***** and moving sliders until I stumble across the right settings.

I still dont understand how the hvac controls work on my car. I have had it for 6 years.

I just keep mine all the way to the right all of the time. Seems to work. And AC is usually max setting most of the time too.

If this was more like $200 or $300 I'd seriously consider it.

They should design the ***** to look more like the fog light ***** and cigar lighter!

Ditto but 18 years. Kidding of course. Well, sort of.

16 years here and I still am not sure. It's my track car is my excuse.

I've had 911's since '90 & I've never figured any of them out...

Strange, I find the slider controls to be very intuitive. The top slider regulates the flow to the windscreen, the bottom slider regulates the flow to the floor vents. If both are closed (all the way to the left), all of the air flows from the dashboard vents. If the sliders are all the way to the right (fully open), very little air will flow from the dashboard vents. If you want the air to flow more-or-less equally from all of the vents, both sliders should be near the center. The defrost button overrides the slides, so all of the air is directed towards the windscreen.

Meenrod

Thanks. What if one is all the way left and the other all the way right?

I think that those of us who are acting dumb about the HVAC control use are being a bit tongue in cheek. A tutorial isn’t needed honestly - at least for me. But maybe for the other Einsteins here it is......kidding guys.
