The old write-up no longer exist (unless you can find it on archive.org). You can search there for www.iluvmyrx7.com and see if you can find an archived version of the write-up.

Basically, you need to cut out the controls from the dash panel, then cut out a section on the shifter panel to fit in the A/C control face. Then you use some bondo or something similar to mate the A/C cut-out into the shifter panel, sand and paint. Then you need to relocate the controls by extending the wiring. It is tricky fitting the controls in that area so before cutting up your shifter panel, you need to test fit the A/C controls in that area to see where they will sit.

I can make the panels no problem its the wiring that I don't know how to do, if its just making the wires longer then that shouldn't be a big deal.
Thanks

simply yes, it's just extending the wires. i would recommend doing each wire one by one so you don't loose track of them.
