Default 69 Lemans under dash vent door question ???

Ok I am in the slow process of restoring my 69 Lemans and I was looking at the vent control doors and the mice have decimated the rubber around the doors so I found a whole new housing at the local salvage yard (also a 69 Lemans) now my question is this .... why does the one I picked up have 2 vacuum pods and 2 small doors (I do understand that each pod runs each door) instead of one pod and 1 large door like my original ..... was this some sort of option I am unaware of or ???

Well this "mystery" has been solved ..... it comes down to I'm and idiot with too much stuff after searching through and actually reading the tags I placed on my actual original box I realized it is the same as the one I picked up and the one in question is actually out of a Chevelle ....

So I apologize in embarrassment to asking stupid questions without proper research ....

The housing you bought is probably for a Lemans/GTO with factory air. My GTO had factory air and has an upper and lower door and actuators like you describe.
