Anyone installed this in lieu of their rotary dials for heating and a/c?

Saw the console for this in a Navigator, and wondered if it would bolt on up. Just another mod to consider.

Keep on customizin'

I sure agree with you on having climate control, but whats in the Nav and what we have in your trucks,is a whole different thing.
Changing out would be $$ and then you would have to buy the Nav components, junk yard or ??. All in all it's a very tough job, I looked into it several years ago, that's how I know, but if you got the bucks and connections to do it, Good Luck.

Mostly a need to know what is involved, i'd be happy to champion the project. I can get all oem parts at dealer cost, which is about half of what they normally charge.

My trucks going to be paid out soon - so it's time to start messing around with it.

yes i also was pondering about that. a friend of mine has the navigator, and the HVAC interface was quite nice compared to the three dials that accompany my truck. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm, I'm on the hunt for a wrecked piece. But they are easy to repair, so you don't find many at the boneyard.

I'm still in search of one for a RAP module so i can put keyless on my early build 99 150.

Thanks

Would someone just please do this mod and fill us in. I'm not courageous enough to go first but it is the one mod I would love to
I gave up a Lincoln Mark VIII for my truck and of all the toys that are missing, the climate control is the one I miss most. Not the power seats, autolamp, auto dim mirrors, systems monitor (actually kinda miss that one), etc., etc.

Is anyone still working on this?

 

Go figure.
It's going to be an option for 02'. Standard on Lariat.
Maybe now it would be an easier mod?

 

Actually it's going to be on the Lariat and King Ranch SuperCrew. Looks like the SC models don't get it.

 

I have wiring diags for the nav and expedtion but need 2000 f150 daigs. to compare and figure out what mods are needed. to harness can anyone foward this to me via fax

 

have secured head unit for electronic climate control off of ebay. Unit came from 1999 expedtion. will attempt install soon

 

Cool, Thanks for the update, I still am interested in this mod and glad to see someone else is as well. If you could take pictures of the conversion it would be appreciated.

 

I was just going to post a question about this because I would like to do it as well.

Please keep us all posted!
