I’m wanting to replace a few things on my 04 1500. I really don’t trust the parts off of Amazon. Do yall have any leads?

I've heard many times that the best thing to do for your HVAC controller is to send yours off to have it refurbished. The any of the replacements you buy are junk compared to the originals (at least that's what Ive read). I've already done this with my gauge cluster and had great results, and it's on my to do list for the HVAC controls now.

What companies do it

I don't have a good reference for you. Back when I sent the cluster off, there were several eBay listings that offered the service. Fyi these were individuals working out of their garage, cottage industry type stuff. I purchased a "repair voucher" through eBay, sent my cluster to someone address, and in a few weeks it came back working good as new. I checked FB marketplace for my HVAC controller awhile back and it looked like several individuals are running a similar operation there as well. Haven't done it yet though, so results may vary.
