Climate Control upgrade

can you upgrade from a standard climate control to the digital? What are the steps? Is as easy as replacing just the unit?

Re: Climate Control upgrade

Nope, not reasonable. It could be done for about 7 grand, yes $7000, so you are much better off getting a TB with the digital controls from the factory. Sorry to have to break the news to ya.

Not only the complexity and the expense, but was problematic in it's operation.

Re: Climate Control upgrade

It costs so much because basically then entire AC system has to be rewired and a lot of other things that I dont know about. I heard about it on another forum, and it has been asked a lot so you arent the only one who wanted to do this.
