The 1977-1982 Climate Control Panels are an interesting study in the transition or evolution of Corvette engineering.  There are 3 variations: 1977-1978, 1979, and 1980-1982. The graphics on the face plate and the connector pins on the Mode Selector switch were changed between 1977-1978 (“FAN” graphic  and 4 connector pins) 1980-1982 (Fan symbol graphic and 3 connector pins).  The 1979 is a hybrid with the early style “FAN” graphic and late style 3-pin mode selector switch.
Note: A replacement version of this unit was sold by GM/ACDelco for a number of years to fit all 1977-1982 Corvettes. It had a metal portion to the Temperature Selector lever and was provided with a different Temperature Control Cable. These exact reproduction Climate Control units are designed for the original cable style.
