Hey guy's . I've taken the climate control out of my old fairmont so i can transplant it into my futura but . . . while i was pulling out the blend door motor . I kicked the heater box to bits so i could get to it(I had no tools & was in a hurry) . Would it be ok to use the standard Futura/GLI heater box and add my climate control stuff to it ? or will i need to get another fairmont heater box for eveything to work proper ?

Any help would be great , cheers

blend motor goes straight in, use some initiative, small bolts and nylock nuts through the flap.

ALL heater boxes have provision for the auto climate control addons.

There is pre-formed holes on the top. You pretty much have to just press them in (break the few thou of plastic) and stick in a bolt.

this is about right there is a technical document on how to do it the blend door motor is a bit of a c**t but its still easier than pulling the heather box out.
