in this thread I have a unit that looks like it(5th pic down)-- how do you remove the pins?

That one appears to be a '65/66 unit with the metal pins. I'm not totally familiar with those, but after searching some threads, someone said they used the '66 metal pins in a later heater control unit. Mine has a spring clip on the center post that you remove and the whole thing falls to pieces. You replace the pins and re-assemble the unit. Not sure how yours comes apart. Someone with more experience w/'66's may be better to ask.

After re-looking at those pics, it appears they rivetted the parts together...using metal pins I guess Ma Mopar figured it would never break ,so why make it so it'll come apart. [shrug]
