Re: updating air con
Converting to Climate is as has been said a Massive job, in fact it would be prohibitivly expensive..
Normal A/C uses a mechanical airbox, the climate version uses a fully electric box along with other sensors to control the temp etc.. Costs will be in the thousands if parts bought from main dealer.. Even buying used would not be cheap. Even if you had the parts there would be many hours of labour to remove the complete dashboard etc. along with having the vehicle reprogrammed etc etc etc..
