Anyone have experience popping off any of the HVAC control buttons for replacement? I’m sure this style of button has been used for years - I know they are common across F-Series, Ranger, etc.

F-150 HVAC Controls are $90 shipped vs $400+ for the Bronco version. I’m trying to get my rear defrost working since I was pre-prep kit soft top from factory. That’s the only visible difference. It’s minimal and I can live with it….but that little bronco is just so cute. Haha.

It seems like it should just pop straight out - but, I don’t want to break it if it’s more difficult than that. The top section separated easily - but, the bottom wouldn’t give. I saw something for another make that stuck a small screw driver under and there is a clip that needs to be pressed to release. Any input is appreciated.

Ya, a $310 Bronco tax is ridiculous.

I was very pleased to find out that the ACM for the Bronco and F-150 were pin compatible. This meant that I could move my plug and play kits harness directly over to the F-150 to the Bronco, or from the F-150 back to the Bronco. It's nice not having to pay twice.
