i don't think your climate control system is affected by the radio. i'm no expert though, so i could be wrong.

It was fairly easy actually. Hardest part was that the original blend door actutator pin broke off in the blend door when I removed it So I had to cut the bottom of the heat box there out, remove the blend door and remove the "D" piece. I did not hook up all the sensors either. I really dont care to have it "automatic". As long as I can control it manually I'm happy. The actutator removal was tough also, I was able to get about 7 turns on the back bolt, then just poped it out with a BFS. This breaks the rear mount but from what I understand, no one puts that bolt back in anyhow.

Yeah, you dont have to have factory radio. You just have to tap into (2) wires in the radio harness. But wont affect anything if you have aftermarket

Where did you find a blue one?? Or did you convert it? Do you have to have any other parts besides the HVAC?

blue comes from 95-97 exploder. Dont have anything else at the moment. Do you need anything inparticular?
