Need Climate Control pod - '86 Capri 5.0L

I am in the process of restoring my '86 Capri 5.0, doing lots of little things right now. The climate control pod (heater/AC controls) in the dash is toast. It has been cracking little by little over the last few years, and now the plastic got so brittle, it nearly disintegrated. I had been repairing it, but now it's beyond hope. The defogger and fan switches are OK. I have been told by Ford that this part has been discontinued, so my hopes of getting a new one are also toast. My local u-pullit yard is light on foxes of that era. So, would nay one have and be willing to part with one at a reasonable price? Or know of a decent source that could scare one up? Here is the part number for reference: E5ZH-19D903-AA.

Thanks in advance for any and all leads or sources.

I too am looking for P/N "E5ZH-19D903-AA". Did you find a Supplier? If so, care to share? Also possibly interested in your old one as it possibly sounds I could combine them to get one in decent shape, as my selector is broke, but faceplate is good.

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I have had to kludge together working controls for my 1985 GT over the years. Let me see what parts I have in the garage and if there is anything you can use we can figure out how to get it to you.

Tried a PM, but this board wouldn't let me.

Thanks for your reply. My e-mail is genemans (at) hotmail (dot) com . My unit was functional, the plastic slider for the selector (Def...Max A/C) is what broke inside the track, so the selector moves, but does not engage the appropriate vacuum switch. If you have one that works, with a bad face plate, I can swap the faceplates and make a functional unit. Let me know what you have, and a photo (front and back) and we will go on from there. Have a great evening.

Various web forums suck in usenet posts to give the illusion of participation. Some send the replies back out on usenet.

Yes I know that. I wanted the OP to know that as well.

Yes, I am well aware. I'm sure I have a longer history than you do.

Unlike you, I don't need to read wikipedia to know what bulletin boards or Usenet is. I was posting to them when you were just a baby.
