Hi,

Based on part numbers, they are two different units. I would have to say it won't work.


01 Accord 79600S84A21Z

01 Prelude 79500S30A01

Is there any way to make the control same as in Accord? because I don't like the slide switch for A/C and heater.

Hi,

Anything is possible, but chances are it wouldn't work because of the types of switches they are. They're different. Also, you would need to take wiring schematics from both vehicles and isolate what each wire does, if all wires are available or are there too many, the voltages that are supplied to the different components and so on.
