Default A/c ??????

I have a 98 with the manual A/C controls. Has anybody swapped out the manual for the climate control version. If so is it just plug and play. Can this be done.

I also have a 98 with manual controls. I don't think it is that easy. The auto systems have more parts under the dash than the manual system. Sorry, I'm sure thats not tne answer you wanted.

I consider myself lucky that I have the manual system. I have read of others on this forum who have had a lot of problems with the auto systems.
