Need help on Metra kit for 06

Hello,
I had ordered a metra combo kit from Ebay.
95-7605


http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200277214732
I did it after some research on metra website and this forum.

Today when i received it i noticed that there is no AC electronic controller inside the panel. I have got only rubber buttons and the bottom cover for the AC controls.

I am pretty sure the AC electronic circuit is supposed to be there. Please tell me whether i would be able to use the AC control circuit from the OEM panel on the car into this unit.


Or have i been tricked by the ebay vendor.

Thanks in advance.

There isn't much to the controller itself besides the button and a circuit board.
If the buttons have a wiring harness coming from them, it should be what you need.

It would help if you posted what you do have.

And no, you cannot use the OEM panel from the original.

BTW, I hope you didn't pay 199 for that combo, as
the same items from Amazon are 181.66 the same items from Amazon are 181.66

Thanks for the information you have provided.
Yes i paid 199 and i didnt do amazon because it would have taken longer to get the item at where i am.
So basically it means i am screwed?

Ouch, yes, you got one missing the circuit board. Take it up with the seller to try and get him to replace that one.

It wasn't a private auction where you can't even give him negative feedback or anything was it?

If that link is to the same vendor you bought it from, they may help, they do have a good feedback rating, I'm sure they'd like to keep it.
