Installing New Stereo, Will I loose my automatic climate control?

Hi Guys!
Quick question.. I was planning on upgrading my stock Bose system on my Max 2K1 GLE... I was wondering, if I do this will I be loose my automatic climate control feature? Because the whole face place/deck has to be removed right?? Had anyone does this yet>?

Thanks!

if u don't have the very base model maxima which has a single din stereo then the assembly goes like this, the ac vent on top is one peice, the stereo is another, and the climate control is another peice.. so if u get a stereo u'll need to either buy an aftermarket trim peice where the stereo once went or u can spend a lil more and buy the base model singel din dash peice... that dash peice is one peice with the ac vent, meaning u'll hafta swap out the original ac vent.. it looks alot better imo...
