Can this be done? I see on the back of the ebay controller pic, there's two plugs. Not sure about mine. Would this be a direct swap or would additional harness be required? Will need a new dash as well.

TIA :)

It COULD be done... however it would require many parts. I know that the digital system relies on temperature sensors located in the cabin, and the manual system lacks such sensors. Another item that would be required would be a remote solenoid assembly to control the different settings (panel, floor, defrost) where the manual climate assembly is located with the controls. I am sure there is more that I am missing that would be required for a swap.
