Default adding dual climate AC

There is a dual climate control unit for sale here locally, I was wondering if I could just swap out my manual unit for this? being a gadget freak id love to have it, or it would be nice to have it as a backup is it just a swap of units or is there alot more to it?

thanks in advance everyone!

You would probably need the duct work also since it divert the air to change the temp on each side

this has been discussed in the past and the general consensus is no, not easy or anything. there is air temp sensors involved for both inside and outside from what i hear, and the whole dual zone thing. not a simple plug and play thing. you'd have to get all the HVAC stuff out of the auto climate controlled car.
