A couple of future and recent mods...

[ilovemycamry03?]

future mods....
change lights in my odo... and swap analog to digital climate control...pictures soon
here are some photos....

side marker

odo stock

odo circuit board


red neon lights


wiring for analog

digitl climate control...


wiring for digital

my little friend
well i hope to get the other two finish for u guys and i hope everything works after im done...

wow its 94 degrees there at 9:40?!?!?! holy buts. or does that say 54...

Sorry but my eyes just hurt looking at the piss-poor quality of the cell pics. Its like grabbing a screenshot of a VHS that was recorded over 10 times.

Wood grain and interion neons...

Plugging in an XLE Climate Control is meaningless operation wise. You don't have the sensors and actuators needed to make it work correctly.

can you take daytime pics with a real cam please.

he might have the actuators... but the sensors might not be there.

i'm a bit intrigued by this as well.

He is missing the Drivers Side and Passenger Side Air Mix Control Servo Motors/Dampers, the proper XLE duct work, Room Temp. Sensor, Driver and Passenger Solar Senors, Plasmacluster, Steering Wheel Controls and Rear Passenger Vents.

Does it look better than 3 knobs? Of Course...........

^ahh... learn something new. i didn't know the duct work for the xle was different from the rest, being that the air temp has to have a way to be different from side-to-side. figures the ductwork isn't there either.

so for sure he's missing the sensors. that's a lot more sensors than i thought there would be. i was wondering why there were was more than one "nub" or insert for solar sensors in the front of the dash.

steering wheel control + related harness and rear passenger vents... he could go without it right?

agreed....pointless to swap climate units....alot of work for a slightly better looking display
no plasmacluster on a gen 5 tho...thats only in the gen 6

I didn't even notice that he was trying to sway out the HVAC control heads. As you said, it's pointless.

well... how useless is it?

if it controls fan speed, temperature, exit mode, recirculation/fresh mode, a/c on/off, and defroster on/off... then it's not too bad.

if it lacks the control of any of the things... then i'd consider it totally pointless. we're all aware that the "auto" button and function altogether is useless, along with the dual-temp stuff.

njerald chime in on this?

also... how does your modded gauges look like? all i see is a picture of the old gauges and the circuit board of the gauges. when you say "odo", are you just referring to the "odometer" 6x1 cm section in the instrument cluster? i'm a bit confused. maybe you forgot to post the pic?

[ilovemycamry03?]

lol... i know i need to take better pics next time... and yea it was 94 degress... at 940 pm... i live in san fernando valley where its very hot over the summer... (the valley)

well im not trying to make it work at a 100% my major problem is the power to the unit and the fan...but i think its possible... ???

WELL PUT WITH THE AC....
AS FAR AS THE ODO...IM STILL WAITING FOR THE BULBS COMING FROM OVERSEAS... FOUND THEM ON EBAY...IM REPLACING THE LIGHTS TO RED... ALL THE LIGHTS...

ANYTHING is possible, but not always reasonably possible. This is one of those things.
