I wouldn't do it...they are prone to breaking, and when they do?? Hehe...I wouldn't wanna pay for it!!

The cars on the lot with climate control never seem to heat up as fast as the ones with manual. My theory is because when you want to heat or cool the car off, you can torque the thing as hot or cold as you want, and it will give you all its got. Whereas with climate control, it will optimize the temp of the outflowing air to reach your preset temp, and no more. I just don't like it, and wouldn't waste the money...

If you really want it though, I think '84-'86 Berlinettas had it, maybe even standard. I have no idea how you'd make the control panel look right in a '91-'92 dash though (the Berlies had that weird swivel radio).

anything is possible.... but that seems a lot harder than it sounds. you'd have to install a chitload of wires and solenoids....just a bunch of extra crap. my buddy's silverado has the digital C.C. and i like it a lot better than ours.
