Short version
No it cant be done-
I bought a panel and now i can conclude
1) The "check" process when switching the ignition on sends the klima into kaos
It will begin to activate every motor and flap available to try to figure out wha the f* is wrong with the system.
This is even without switching the klima on..
2) After 5-7 minutes of crunching, the klima will stop the self test-
But as you activate the system, and begin to try the new functions out, you will realise that the functions are not in the correct settings
(front blowing sends air to feet / feet sends air to upper vents to cabin , not face and not window, but the one in the middle / there is no front window demist )
3) Activation of AIRCON now activates the compressor, but no chilled air comes into the cabin .. , you can tell by the temp, but also the smell of chilled klima air
----
After this "function test" is concluded, switching the vehicle off will provoke the self test program as the system trys to find "0" position,
And can continue up to 15 minutes, even with the key out and the car locked-
So.. no it doesnt work
Ive tried to reassign the klima buttons by autologic, and this made it worse
The system needs more motors and a different wiring loom
There is also a different fan housing , and small parts that need to be changed, plus the fitting of the "optional" chiller armrest and klima vents for the rear of the armrest
Also the mixer dial under the hazard switch
All in all , only a job for dedicated finatics
