GSLSE Climate Control Not Working.

Hey guys. Just replaced my climate control module with a confirmed working part and I still have no lights on the climate control and none of the buttons do anything.

The car has the AC gutted
It also has the FC engine bay fuse box conversion. If there's an interior fuse box I have no idea where it is. Any idea?

Found the fuse panel (I'm retarded) and I'm fairly certain all the fuses are perfect. After a long day of wrenching on the rex I only have a few more problems left to solve. One is that climate control issue, which I've all but given up on solving, the car's end-game state is a race car anyways, so it really doesn't matter.

That being said, recently the oil pressure/voltage gauge light has gone out and I want to change it, however, after attempting to take the gauge cluster out I'm at the point of cursing whoever designed the interior of these cars.

I've read that taking the speedo cable off the transmission will help get me some slack to get the cluster out, and I've read that you can replace the bulbs without removing the dash, but I cannot for the life of me see how that is possible. Maybe I need a shrink ray?

Any tips? Lower the steering column? Nuke it from orbit?

Any chance you ever found a fix to this issue in the past 6 years? I'm having the same problem on my SE and can't for the life of me figure it out
