#1: Swapping air con console??? Author: sinead6230, Location: Wincanton SomersetPosted: Mon Oct 17, 2011 6:26 am ---- This is the air con i have at the moment
And this is the one id like to put in
is it possible to fit this into a 2000 1.6l 16v pug? or it is just not worth the hassel? ive had a search through the forum and havent seen any posts of anyone doing this.

I have a 2001 1.6 16V GLX and it has the climate control, not plain old air conditioning. I guess the 2001 model is specified slightly better and is multiplexed, while 2000 was the last of the non-multiplexed ones? In which case, an upgrade might not be possible at all, or at least not without considerable effort etc.

Early 2001's weren't mux'd ... we've got the digital one in the 206CC and that was March 2001.

Pass, i've never attempted this mod as my GLX had climate control fitted as standard from the factory
Addaz has done this conversion before so he will be more clued up on it then me.
