Default Shawn Bakers HVAC controls/guages

Does any body know where Shawn Baker Moved his HVAC controls. I want to put gauges where that HAVC's are but don't know where to move them?

If I am not mistaken they were moved to the trash on his car.

But, I am sure you could get them hooked up in the glove box or in the center console.

Almost forgot to mention, I believe Zeroeyequeue did that mod and moved his HVAC controls. I don't remember to where though.

Heh, wasn't me, P. Mine are mounted on top of the dash. Function > Form for me.

I forget who it was, as well. However, I remember them looking very well done.

A quick minute in the search tab and I found it was BeloZero.



I believe he mounted the controls in the center console. His build thread will probably show the finished product. In the thread I'm referencing, he was having some trouble with Glowshift Gauges he purchased, last I saw.

Ah yes! Sorry. Got the "zero"s mixed up. Haven't seen you on here in a while. How's the rebuild?

And, on topic, I think I like scionchicop's solution the best so far. I'd just rather the displays be more to one corner...

The other option you could try is to add a digital controller to the HVAC controls with bluetooth connectivity and write a program that works with your iPhone/Android, so you just control the temp from your phone!

Heh, its cool, P. Just been a bum lately. Bothering people for rides and such. The engine is with World-Racing in CA. They should be finishing sometime this month. After that, it comes back to me and my mechanics in MI. Although, since AEM decided to come out with a EMS Series 2 for our cars, I have yet another expense. Sigh...

Agree with you on scionchicop's mod. It's low-key, functional, and in a visible location. The main reasons I went on the dash is keep all of the car's interior functionality by staying away from the airbags in the pillars and keeping all the storage space usable, keep the meters visible, and because it was the easiest to do. :3

Btw, I'm still lurking about.

That is the Ish! I've been trying to think of a good place to put my gauges.
