My girlfriend's facelift 58 plate A3 has standard AC and I'd like to change that to climate control...one is this possible and secondly, what bits would I need apart from the climate control unit? Thanks in advance.

P.S. I have done a search but most threads are about retrofitting the new climate unit to an old one.
 
It was asked before & it didnt seem practical, the whole airbox in the dash would need changed to one that has motors not cable operated flaps. Lots of work & would cost quite a bit even getting bits 2nd hand.
 
It would be possible but with massive outlay in time to complete and money.
 
I got as far as pulling the dash apart and seeing all the cables that would need to be converted to some sort of electrical motors for air flow. Too big a job for what I wanted.
 
Thanks for the replies guys...going to give this mod a miss I think :3sadwalk:
 
Its not just the main unit, its probably engine compartment work aswell for piping if not there already, its a pig of a job.
