If you want to install climatronic but without the functioning AC, you can but it's a fair bit of work.

You need the heater box from behind the dash (just the main one) the loom and the panel itself.

Then it's all plug and play into your car. It'll work like normal fans.

It's just automatic AC really.

If you've got the AC then it all becomes a bit more complex, just get the ac regassed near the summer and all should be good ?

Leather sucks, hot in the summer and freezing in the winter. I always have it though.

I've got it heated, it's still freezing for about three minutes.

Used to be longer but I stripped the seat down and replaced the heating element in the drivers with a new one.

I mean the heater box which actually houses the heater matrix.

This is the part where all the cables attach, these are replaced by motors controlled by the climatronic fascia.
