    So you are saying that you can have max ac without recirculating the interior air?

      I'm saying I can have max AC by recirculating the air even if it's already cold in the cab (when the system will open the vent) or recirc the air if near something stinky. It's still not as fast as manual controls, but it's better than suffering through a horrendously long light next to some douche rolling coal.

          pretty much. and since it switched to recirc relatively quick (the vacuum pump I have augmenting the system is probably helping with that), I don't have to wait long. getting back to vent takes about 3 times as long though, but I'm ok with that.

            This is great, never understood why you couldn't force Recirculate (max A/C) in the older boxes. It generally cools much better in recirc mode.

            Many newer cars, my former 09 Genesis and 12 LaCrosse both have air quality sensors that do just what your switch does. Nice job.

              newer (and LS/LX trim versions) visors for the Mad Marquis. Thanks sxcpotatoes.

              I may eventually fix the power to the driver side (the wire on the visor is cut), but not today.

              The old... flaking cardboard crap...

                Looking good! Do you plan on replacing the headliner down the road?

                  unless I come into a stupid amount of money that allows me to totally rebuild this car and turn it into an insane hotrod... nope.

                    Be careful what you wish for. The money is out there; it's just a matter of what you're willing to do for it.
