Just a quick question here;

What's needed to install climate control on a car with manual A/C? If it's possible.

Thanks!

Would have thought it would be extremely expensive and damn near impossible, it involves so many more electronics...

For example, when you turn the middle dial to change airflow direction, it's a mechanical process using rods. With climate control, it's electronics that do it... not to mention all the sensors and stuff required!

Would be a nice luxury to have I agree, but not worth the hassle :)

There's an aftermarket kit available for 420 Euros, not worth the time or effort.
