auto climate control...

Yes, I read the FAQ's, but i wanted to convert my manual climate control to auto. it mentioned the auto relies on inputs from four different sensors:
- The in-vehicle sensor, attached to the A/C control finisher.
- The ambient sensor, attached to the radiator core support.
- The sunload sensor, located on the right defroster grille.
- The intake sensor, located on the cooling unit housing.
I was wondering if any of these sensors are already insatlled on the car. I know I don't have the sunload sensor or the in car temp sensor, but are the ambient and intake already hooked up. Can the climate control operate with only the in vehicle sensor. thanks !!

I read this was costly and very time-consuming, and I too wanted to change the manual controls to the auto. controls... but imo I like the simplicity of the manual controls

It's a lot more then just sensors. The entire HVAC system under you dash would have to be replaced. The flapper doors that control air flow are actuated completely differently on Auto systems -vs- manual systems.

You better off buying a different car.
