Looking into fitting a double din radio, and by that getting a new center fascia. But the dealer i talked to, has one for auto climate control, mine is manual. Its possible to buy the control unit loose. My question is, is it really that simple?

I mean is everything else in place, is it just a question of control unit?

Know it might be a really silly question, but I have no knowledge on this matter.

No it is not possible to retrofit the Auto A/C panel as there are a number of sensors and connectors required that are not present in the Manual A/C equipped cars.

However there is a double DIN manual A/C panel available as part of the i30 accessory list. See http://www.hyundai-car.co.uk/accessories/technology/?modelName=i30&ref=429

I will try and get the part number for the surround later in the week.

Thanks a lot Funky, didnt think it would be that easy either :) I've looked at the kenwood earlier, its awesome and sweet features, also very pricey, and still need the fascia right? With the right cut for the screen.
