    Default Heater controls - cross reference?

    I've got a 1985 Mustang GT, originally with AC but now without, and I've just discovered my vent controls (and temperature slider) are cracked in the rear, and the only way I can get any air out of my vents is if I pull on the vent lever as I move it.

    Was that vent control panel only used on the Mustang, or was it shared with other vehicles of the era? I'd love to source one at a scrapyard, but I know how much of a tall order finding an early '80s Mustang is in the local yards.

    Thanks in advance.

    You might want to try ebay, sometimes you see those type of switches on there.

    The 87-93 controls work the same but does not physically fit in the same space.
