the A/C mounted is only hooked to the center vents, so not a problem about side vents.

good part... I fixed everything... everything is working now. However turning switch/brakes light is a temporally fix. Car has missed brake lights, turning swithc damaged on that function, so I jumped under column, at plug the brake light wire with rear lights, so he has now brake lights. The bad on this is when he has turning switch ON, to any side and press brakes, the turn function is canceled being constant powered to the respectivelly side ( including front ), but brake lights are CRITICAL on transit, so we preffer to make that sacrifice for a while I dissasemble the column switch and try to fix.

stuff I made to fix:
-Ammeter... studs were TOTALLY loosen. I sold them and tight the nuts. Car was ready for a HEAVY short.
-Cluster dimmer wheel... Rudimentary fix, not really a rebuilt, but working now.
-Hideaways... it had a serial of relays to try to make them work. Last "tech" simply never analized the relay mounted was the wrong one. Used a Bosch one and replace the 4 relays it had around, trying to make works the system.
-All cluster lights
-Rebuilt/fix the engine harness. Alt terminal at bulkhead plug conector was already burnt in the past. Since I hate a wire through the hole without being able to remove to fix something, I used an intermediate high intensity bullet kind terminal to be able to remove completelly the harness from body
-Propper inner rear bulbs ( it had the wrong ones... big bulb high intensity )
-IGN swicth harness got a burnt at red wire too, so fixed propperlly the bad fixing made in the past... IGN switch/harness assembly will be replaced anyway in a next move.
-As stated the brake lights detail.
-The wire to Compressor clutch was cut with firewall ( not grommet used there, wow !!! ) ready for a heavy short there to... Fixed!
