Yes, I was contemplating your ideas tonight driving home in my "88 turbodiesel Chevy Van. Studying the simplicity of the climate controls on the Chevy and how well they always do as I demand, not attempting to interpret my desired temperature and air speed like my Mercedes climate controls and usually getting it wrong.''hmmm...how can the Chevy controls be adapted to the Mercedes?
