Which heater control do I need? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have no heater control in my 56 project, and will be attending a swap meet soon. I don't know the difference (if there is one) between standard and deluxe. I will likely be adding ac. Any suggestions, or advice? Price range? Thanks upfront, Dusty

Basic heater is a lever on heater box under dash going from defrost to floor with a fan control knob on dash. Deluxe goes in the opening on the dash glove box side that looks like another ash tray. A lot of the ac units can use the deluxe controls to work the new ac.

deluxe listing on ebay
replacement parts are available

Chevrolet and GMC are different as well.

Here is a picture of a GMC, in my truck and a Chevrolet faceplate on from the Brothers online catalog.

See how the Chevrolet has a curved front and the GMC has a jog in it.
