I recently got a 06 XLT as a company car...price is right, but XLT is very basic. Does anyone know if I can do the following:

---Upgrade the manual climate control to an automatic dual climate control module from Ford ??
---Can the manual headlight control be changed to auto senor type that i have in my 99?
---Lastly, can you add the keyless touchpad to the outside door handle?

Like the ride and price, but other than that this sucker is as basic as can be.

Not an expert here but I think all of those would be very involved and costly.
 






Not sure, but I'd like to know about these two ideas:


---Upgrade the manual climate control to an automatic dual climate control module from Ford ??
---Can the manual headlight control be changed to auto senor type that i have in my 99?
 






not worth the money for temp control and auto lights ford says that auto lights will cost about 250 plus labor you can buy after market stick on keypads that act like a keyfob
 






Where can I find these stick-on keypads? That sounds interesting to me.

I also looked into installing the auto lights. If you do a search in the forum, there are some articles about it. Most mention getting a rear-view mirror from an older explorer that has the auto lights installed. You also need to have the wiring harness. I'd guess that a junkyard is your best bet.
