I'm running a L76 out of a 2009 G8 GT in my 66 Impala. I have the Factory Dash with the vents in center and on the sides which i would like to keep stock. I will be using the dakota digital dash and so i wanted to use their climate control switching as well (perfect color match) which integrates with the vintage air gen-II.

I do not have anything for the fire wall from the factory unit.

What do i need to make this all work?

Are these components available for the 66 Impala?

Assuming i shave the firewall, are there custom componenets to take into consideration?

Several of the companies have bulkhead connectors to run ac and heater water through the firewall.
As I read this your looking to use Dakota Digital controls on a Vintage Air unit but the G8s AC compressor.
Very simply use the controls to activate a relay activating the compressor, and dont forget to follow instructions on wiring.
Just remember the G8 compressor clutch is most likely chassis ground with a relay controlling battery voltage to the clutch.
A Little more detail might help, and any references from instructions.
