No. there's more to it than just the fascia - you'll need to replace the entire heater assembly, add additional wiring and sensors behind the dashboard. If an Ebay advert tells you that you can convert it using just the fascia it's a LIE.

There are hundreds of Golfs for sale already with Climate Control fitted so it would not make any financial sense to do this conversion.

I can't recall anyone ever doing it. It's a massive amount of work (isn't cheap either) for very little gain.
