    Manual to Climatronic?

    I'm not sure what all goes into a climatronic system, but lets say for shits and giggles that I have a climatronic setup (the piece in the dash), could this just be realistically changed out with the manuals in a plug in and go type setup?? Or is there more to the whole climatronic thing than the control? Anyone know, I want to try this!

    You need TONS more equipment to make this work.

    To buy everyting new it costs like $6,000.00 in parts.

    Check german e-bay. Often people sell the whole system.

    You would be looking at basically replacing the entire heating and ventilation system for the whole car, which means gutting the dash. It would be $1000+ in labour costs for sure. The controls alone are useless im afraid.

            yea the only way to successfully do it would be if you are hardcore into ripping your car apart or building one up.. i like the manual controls anyways.. its pretty much always on cold and off so its all good
