Switching temp control/vents with double din area

Hey im just wondering if this is possible...
I want to put in a Pioneer D1 double din navigation system in my car, but i dont want to put it down so low, is it possible to switch the temp control unit and vents in the console to the bottom and put the unit up on the top?

I know people have placed the Climate controller down low where the stock radio used to be. that is a simple rewire job. as I recall however these people just blocked off the center air ducts.

replumbing the center vents i think is a bit more difficult.

hope that helps,

You can't move the vents. No way, no how.
