Hi, i currently have normal aircon with no climate control, anyone know if its possible to retro fit the climate control?

Not sure if its doable but I can't see why not. Have thought about it myself as i'm missing climate as my old 1.2 had it but i've only got normal aircon now.

If the connectors for the fan speed, aircon and recirc are the same I can see you needing the control panel, motors for temperature and distribution adjustment and the temp sensor in the roof light. Don't know if its got any sort of computer to control it all though or whether its in the control panel ?
Would be big money i'd have thought unless you've got access to a writeoff with it fitted.

Looking at dialogys it does look to be swappable but your looking at over £300-400 in parts from renault.

Got me thinking now, if it will work I would have to find a 172/182 spares/repairs and poach the entire climate system, hmm.

yeah i was hoping all the gadgets would be in the CC panel, but if its going to cost anywere near that much then not sure its really worth it. just thought it would be a nice feature and project. id assume the sensor in the roof light would be in the car as standard tbh?

Wouldn't have thought so as normal aircon doesn't need to know the cabin temp, its there so the climate can adjust the heat to bring the cabin upto temp.
