Factory A/C came with the deluxe heater. You could have got dealer installed A/C with the thrift or deluxe heater.

The heater for factory air trucks is different then the regular heater, has an extra air opening into cab.

Correct. The A/C heater has an extra opening with a blend door. On dealer installed A/C they cut the hole in the heater and added the blend door.

i like the deluxe heater controls because if you go with Vintage Air your original Deluxe controls can be used with the new A/C that way it looks "factory"

Also with recirculating heater , you get a different set of dash bezels and cables for the controls
