The hvac control was loose in the 99 Tahoe. I was pulling the lighter panel to install the new USB port and found the controller all broken up. Looking at ebay and amazon replacements. Anybody have any experience with them?

I forget what I paid on the Bay, $45 or so. Works fine ... so far.
LABLT A/C Heater Climate Switch For 1996-2000 Chevrolet Suburban Tahoe GMC Yukon
Main difference is whether you have the rear defroster or not. Look for the extra button on the lower left.

I had a spare for the truck. No rear defrost of course.

NOS pieces are priced out of sight. I'm not a big fan off the china stuff. So I did a thing. Swapped the broken case parts into the good case non rear defrost spare I had. If you go junkyard shopping find one made out of white plastic. The beige ones are too brittle. I used the little screwdriver to reach into the bottom of the tab slot, a little twist and push released the tabs. Remove the face plate, dont disturb the white switch actuators. There are two little tabs to release the rear defogger switch assy. They broke as soon as I looked at them. It will slide right in the no switch housing and latch in place. Don't loose the little spring! A dab of the silicone grease inside the switch housing will hold the spring in place during assembly. The housing will have plenty to use. Small end toward the micro switch. Snap the face plate back on and bingo.

Unfortunately that is extremely regional. I have four yards that could be called decent. Only one has frames before about 2005 and they are mostly just that .... frames. Fully picked over and what's left has been rained on multiple times, so interior and electric parts are wasted.

I miss the upullit yard in Richmond Va. They had 3 different yards. I just looked at 400 Tahoes there. 4 Tahoes and 3 Yukons. $235 for a motor with a $50.00 core charge. Too bad it's 5.5 hrs away now.
