Ok. this may sound like a very silly question...

The car i have ordered may not actually be available ay more (not a factory build). And the nearest one my dealer could find is a very similar model, bt without climate control.

I REALLY REALLY REALLY want climate control on because i hate the dials for the a/c. Do you think it is possible to order the climate control parts from my dealer and get them to fit it before i collect it?

so my first question is... is that possible.
seccond one is...will it be EXTRAORDINARILY expensive?

I understand it will cost more than the £245 that it wud cost for a factory built climate control, but by just how much more?

Hi,

I tihnk you will find there are a lot of different parts inside the dashboard. All the air flow etc is controlled by little servo's when you have climate control, rather than simple cables with manual air con. Also there are air temperatures fitted, along with a sunshine sensor on top of the dash. It would probably cost £1000 pus sadly :(

sorry to say this but I tried to get this added to my car the week it got laid down on the track and the answer was no because all the wiring had been put in.
