Do you think it would be possible to hook up the Info Center on an FX4 cluster??

No, the fx4 has a button built into the cluster face for scrolling through the info screen

Is it necessary to hook up the AUTO CLIMATE in order to do the info center upgrade, or is it optional? I have a friend that has a DSP III to program what I want if I get a Lariat cluster to install. I also have the dash pieces ready to on ebay (picture below) if i decide to pull the trigger on everything.... I would like to do the AC upgrade but I'm reluctant because of all of the splicing involved....

You can do the info center separate from the climate control

LTBLU/Red- This is the Illumination Pick up I connected this to LTBLU/RED on
the climate control
BK- This is ground for the Illumination I connected this to BLK/LT BLU on the
climate control since I was also running the previous wire there but you
can find a ground almost anywhere.
You do not have to attach the LtBlu/Red and BK wires at all to make this work.
sooo... your write up has pretty much allowed me to do everything i need to get this done... I have one last thing hanging me up at the moment... before I go start running wires to the cluster, I want to make sure i'm getting the correct wire to the correct pin... unfortunately my wire colors for my switch don't match up with the ones in your write up.... I would do a "trial and error" method but I'm afraid with my luck that I'd end up shorting something out.... Here's what I have.... I would be grateful for any advice...
