Double Din Conversion and Dual AC Climate Controls
Hi Everyone,
Just ordered my double din conversion kit from strictly Z.
On the other hand, I just noticed that the conversion with the JDM AC controller does not have the option we have where we can control the driver and passenger AC temp.!!!
I also noticed that one of the people that have done the conversion has the dual temp. control button!!!
My question is: Once I try to install the new JDM part, will I be able to control the temps like I can now? or will I lose that option completely? If so, am I required to leave the AC in the desired mode before starting the conversion, because logically speaking I wont be able to change it once the new part is in place.
Thanks in advance for any feedback...

Re: Double Din Conversion and Dual AC Climate Controls
you desolder the piece from the factory a/c controller and resolder it on to the new A/C controller.
if you don't do this, you will lose the dual climate control.
www.g-owners.com has a good DIY article.

Yup, you just get the old button off your a/c do a little soldering and add it to the JDM. Hey I was thinking of ordering those parts from the same webSite. Let us know how it turns out, if you needed any other parts, after the install is done. I am considering ordering from them also and would like this info.

It's not and probably won't ever be listed on the Strictly Z site. I think Kyle only got few units in and they are all gone already. I checked with Strictly Z a couple of days ago, and they don't have any, and I don't think they will have any more any time soon. So, I just ordered the old fashioned way...from Yoshi at J's garage in Japan.

Re: Double Din Conversion and Dual AC Climate Cont
we haven't resolved the willow interior brown buttons yet. We couldn't find the Nissan japan parts for the willow interior from J's for both the AC controller w/ brown buttons as well as well the center console piece with tan ends (vs. the balck ends).
I think most people who have the willow interior have accepted the black buttons....I don't know if anyone who has swapped out all the brown buttons from the stock ACC for the v35 JDM AC controller. I suppose it can be done, it would just take a little time and patience to push out all those little fragile plastic retaining clips for each button.
Your AC will work if you don't swap the Dual CLimate control buttons. You just won't have dual climate control if you don't.

He said I should get it within 10 days. Great service. Gave me a tracking number right away. Pretty easy deal. It usually takes him a day or so to return your e-mail due to the time difference. Ordered mine Sunday, it was shipped Tuesday.
