Air conditioning unit retrofit.

Featured Replies

Hello. I have just taken ownership of a new kamiq se. Beautiful car indeed. 

I'm interested to know if I can change the AC control panel to one with a screen. I've attached a picture to show you which one I currently have. Wasn't sure if it's as easy as simply changing the unit or not. 

Thanks for any help you can provide.

This question has been frequently asked on another manufacture forum. The consensus there is that the flaps and controls in an aircon system are mechanically controlled, and in a climate system they are controlled electrically so not only will you need the controls, the flap motors, and to be able to integrate the electric control with the car's system. The cost would be considerable. The usual advice is to sell the car and buy one with climate control fitted.

Quite aside from the considerable cost, some of us (me for one) would rather have mechanical controls that stay put than a touch screen that can move controls.
