That thing belongs in a junk yard. That said, I wouldn't go over $500.

Yeah, that's a little bit less CRX and a lot more headache than I expected for the money.

Cracks around the HVAC controls are common and good replacements are very expensive. Everything still works though, even if it's broken. 

So...I just went through one of my old build threads, and I guess the whole HVAC thing was much more of a PITA than I remembered.

IIRC, the faceplate would fail, leaving you with a few separate components. The EG had similar issues. Trying to remember how I dealt with this back in the day.

Aftermarket faceplates with 3m tape are available. I'm also pretty sure that you can swap in another climate control unit from a similar gen accord.
