My blower motor controller has been working intermittently lately so I replaced it with the one from the parts car, a '99. The controllers are different. Less baffling on the heat sink on the newer controller, along with a couple other differences. Weird. I wonder why they had a design change? To make it cheaper to manufacture, perhaps? I wonder if the part numbers are different? 96 on the left, 99 on the right. Just thought I would share! Add this to the list of model year differences I suppose.

Yes they are different part numbers. Interchangeability unknown.

Well, I guess we'll find out!
*edit*
99 blower motor controller works great in my 96. So glad it works every time, now!

ACDelco crosses 95-96 and 97-99. I don't see why they wouldn't be interchangeable though.

Randnon, I coated the floor in rustoleum epoxy. I coated it right after we purchased our house in October, so I can't say much for longevity yet but it has held up just fine thus far. I love the look of it and the protection from oil leaks is excellent. Two of the three cars I own have colanders as oil pans, evidently.  Their 2.5 garage kit covered about as much as advertised. I had to buy a single garage kit as well to finish up the 3rd garage. You have to etch the floor with an acid (provided in the kit) to prepare the floor for the epoxy and remove oils. You let it sit for a day, then you can put down the epoxy. You can walk on it in like 3 days, and park on it in a week. The epoxy went on really easily, my father in law did the rolling and I spread the flakes. The epoxy was done in about an hour or so. I would definitely recommend it!

Good to know about the BCM compatibility. Maybe add that tidbit to the repair procedure.
Muriatic acid? I use it as one ingredient when etching circuit boards haha.
