Moving Heater controls

[J25GTi]

Oh really? would be interesting to see


!


thats what it is like so far, i think the end hole with my gauge in is a bit skewiff looking at this photo, but it looks fine when in the car, ill have a look at it tomorrow and see.

i know there is glue etc everywhere, but its all been flocked at the end of the month anyway, so i wasnt too careful with it as it will be sanded down etc.

and the gap at the bottom will be used for my ECU when i get it, but will fill it in with some polycarbonate for the meantime, but thats next weekends job

Does anybody know what is involed in moving the heater controls to the glove box? Do you have to mess about with the cables etc? Is it a big task?

 

[Dean-JDM-ep*1]

would also like to know this^^^^^

 

[J25GTi]

To the glovebox you would need to fanny around with cables etc, that's part of the reason I didn't do it.

And the headunit won't be going anywhere, I don't run one, which is why I didn't mind moving the controls!

Its a start but its looking ok so far....

what cables you have to move? its all electrical... if the wires are not long enough you just need to solder longer wires.. i know there are many wires but would be done easyly and if you use heatshrink tube it will look neat

 

[Idrees]

Are you sure Sheldon? Because my old SR had cables at the back of the controls..

completely agree, it is such a simple task to extend a wire, and always use heat shrink, when people use tape it looks chuffin aweful, you could extend the wires to the point of putting them on the roof if u wanted lol

if u mean mechanical cables then no there is not its all on a electrical basis no mechanical parts near the controls

 

[Sheldon]

yes i think im 100% sure lol. my 96 glanza has no cables at all.. all electrical components. dunno about the SR!

 

[Johnny_C]

the warm to cold air control is cable controlled unless you have the electronic switch control heater panel.

electric switch panel your referring to is the 96 or 98 model? im sure mine has no cables.

yeah.mines defo has a cable to change from warm to cold here.

mm is yours a glanza? or was it an sr at some point?

 

[Johnny_C]

mm is yours a glanza? or was it an sr at some point?

it was an irish model.
i must check the other glanza panel i have here to see if its cable controlled as its not the full digital button version.

 

[Sheldon]

infact.. im sure there was someone that moved there control unit into the glovebox! so i really think its not cable controled.. and i took off mine and there was no cable (if i remember correctly)

 

[J25GTi]

just to confirm, my set up is mechanical controls...

 

[spartacus]

aye i have a 99 glanza and the heater controls are fully electrical. i moved my heater controls to the glovebox and made a custom panel to hold the heater controls as im fitting three gauges in the space left by moving the heater controls.
