I’m planning on using a ProAir AirTech II system that I already have and mounting it in a box under the second row seat. These are made for mounting under bus/van seats, and the combo heat & cool allows me to use a single switch for the rear blower motor. My Suburban was a non A/C truck so I plan to use a gen 5 Vintage Air up front, and rely on that to control the compressor and heater valve to supply the rear unit as well. The rear blower switch doesn’t need to know which mode it is in.
Very cool idea! I was wondering how you had it figured.

Depending what letters or characters are being used, sometimes you can fit in 10 or 11 characters if there are more narrow letters. But mainly speaking the limit is roughly 9 or possibly 10 characters depending.

R HEAT AC should work. If you'd like I can play with both R HEAT AC and R HEAT A/C to see if I can make it look proper and let you know? Let me know if you have a preference.

No rush, but send me a PM in the next few days and we can figure out the details.

Thanks
