Dual climate unit

How hard would it be to replace the manual controlled ac/heater with the dual climate control?

I don't know how hard but the controlls are different and probably so is some of the plumbing. I have dual on my car but since the car is so small inside I'm not sure you can really tell much of a differenct? Maybe some but probably not enought to warrent the cost.. JMHO

Well, I like how it looks also.... LOL

I just don't know if the car has a HVAC or something the cars with manual controls don't have.

I could only dream that it was as simple as changing the face plate/unit/whatever you want to call it is.

Has anyone done the conversion? Please chime in!

Are you sure you want to do that? There are an awful lot of posts about how the display failes. I was even thinking about if it was possible to go to the standard when my display fails.

Hmmm...didn't know about that one!

I'm still curious, though.

You can't.

Well, not easily.

The dual-zone uses more sensors and other things that are not installed with the manual A/C.

Unfortunately, the dual A/C can't be switched for the manual either. I much prefer the manual over the dual zone.
