6th Gen Switch from Manual A/C to Auto A/C?

Okay, my initial guess is no but does anyone know if you can switch the manual A/C controls out for the auto ones like these:

I punched through my controls and am buying new ones but figured if the auto would work why not upgrade? Thanks a lot!

Yes, but you need to install a bunch of sensors.

Not worth it.

Gotcha, I figured there had to be some sort of sensor to measure the temp and stuff. Alright, already ordered the normal style. Thanks a lot guys.

Anytime.

How much did you pay for it? Dealership? Ebay?

Let us know.

I actually got two of the dash surrounds with clock and heater controls included because both were a great deal. One was 40 after shipping, the other 35 after shipping. Both are used but look great. One is the 98 style with an indention for the buttons, the other the 2001 style which is smoother.
