climate control swap 2003 to 2002

[prelude48]

Hey guy,

Anyone know if a 2003 pathfinder climate will plug into a 2002 pathfinder?

Looking to buy a 2002 and swap in the dash climate control bezel and centre shifter with the nice wood.

Id buy a 2003 but can't find one in my area and i found a good deal on a 2002.

Thanks

The wiring harnesses are different.

I'm totally in your shoes dude. I love the look of the 2003 Interior. Just the little things like the wood, different window switches and centre stack that make it feel like a whole new truck. I say go ahead and try the 2003 climate control in the 2002. It might require some work, but should work fine.

The 2003 A/C control unit is completely missing one wiring harness plug that is present in the 2002 model, and it also has one less input (ACPD CUT). It's not going to work.
