posting mostly to subscribe to the thread, but I just noticed you upgraded from "thermatic" to "thermatronic" HVAC controls, right? That means that some features don't actually work, like passenger air-direction and cabin air filter, no?

That's the one I had originally, but I'm guessing now you're selling it because you only bought it for the burl trim you later got CF-wrapped. When I replaced mine with the "thermatronic" I didn't get the upgraded features, just the upgraded look. The very nice Hungarian eBay seller (who emailed "i love american peoples and america too. America is not europe") provided me this great link that pre-warned of no Independent air direction control, no Illuminated dash vent controls, no Sun position sensor and no Activated charcoal filters. Looks cool though

Technical differences
Cars that had Luxury Climate Control fitted at the factory have the following differences over standard:
It is entirely possible to fit these extra parts, but extremely time consuming and expensive.
These extras are not required to retrofit the actual control Panel.
