HVAC / Stereo Swap
Thursday, February 16, 2012 1:00 PM
I have a 97 Cavalier 2D and was wondering if anyone has ever swapped the position of the Hvac controls and the stereo so the stereo is on top and the Hvac is on the bottom....

Im considering taking a crack at this in spring when its nicer outside to do this work.

I have done it, the problems are

1. no undersupport for the radio when moved there

2. hard to strech radio wires and cables to hvac to fit

3. hard not to pinch the vaccum lines behind the HVAC

thats a shame....I hate having the stereo so low and would like to be able to throw in a headunit with a flip up screen but dont want to block the Hvac controls

You could move your HVAC to the glovebox if you wanted.

This is my plan for the summer, that way I can use the spot where the HVAC was for a custom switch/gauge panel for my air ride.
