    Hey, I need a replacement for my climate control, it’s from a 84. I’ve looked on o’Reilly, AutoZone, rock auto, and 1a auto. I was just wondering if anybody knew where to get one, I was hoping to not have to buy from eBay, but that looks like my only option

    Tough find, Ebay is probably your best option

    I've got one in my 1985 shell. It might take me some time to get it out though due to I'm lazy and it's raining all week. You can DM me if you're interested.

    Welcome, What's wrong with your unit? I've had to deal with mine. The big problem mostly with these units is the blue cable that goes through the fire wall that turns the coolant flow on and off gets gummed up with dirt, and then when you want hot or cold air so bad and push so hard that the pivot snaps. This can be fixed - shade tree repair - with a bolt and nylock nut, It WILL be a loose repair but it works, As for the cable that hooks to this part of the unit I have a good used one i'll send you if you need it. Toyota still might have NOS on hand - best way to go.
    Also since you have it out already the heater control switch can be disassembled, cleaned and relubricated.
    If you still need a whole unit here in Denver we have Jim's yota yard and Yota yard on Walnut street. Don't confuse the two.
    Good luck.
