mrbeige 0 Posted June 27, 2006 I've just got myself a black dash (finally!), but it is from a VR, so the heater control mountings are different, as they are for the later dial type, and mine has the early slider type. The dash didn't come with any of the switch gear or heater controls, so I need to get a set. My question is, can I use Passat or Seat heater controls (far cheaper than Corrado ones)? Are they the same? The rest of the illumination in my C is red, so I'd need ones that can be either converted to illuminate red or are red already (Seat). Also would be juts a matter of getting a new set of bowden cables and some wiring jiggery pokey to fit them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted June 27, 2006 passat ones will fit with a bit of jiggling, you should find plenty of info from the search.. or possibly the wiki? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted June 28, 2006 Yeah there is some stuff in both the search and the wiki, but it says that part of the Corrado dials needs to be put in the Passat ones i.e. the knob and worm gear for the heater speed. Is it necessary to use them as I don't have existing corrado dial type controls??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted June 28, 2006 Get ones from a SEAT Toledo of about '95/'96 with aircon and they'll be exactly the same as the Corrado ones, no need to swap bits over - plus they'll be red illuminated... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool! Cheers dude. Does it have to be one with aircon? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted June 28, 2006 Yeah, otherwise the fan speed switch is slightly different, as you mentioned in your previous post... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
