Yes, later passenger models have the factory A/C controls on the dash
while 86/87 have the controls overhead between the visors. The overhead
controls have a wiring bundle to them from the rear main unit and the
bundle is hidden by the center ducts. When the center ducts are removed
the wiring just hangs there in the way. The dash controls have a bundle
to them from the back that is run under the floor along side the main
bundles.
