It is indeed possible alongside having to place all the sensors etc there is a lot of wiring etc, I am sure it cost someone around $1000 to complete the process and also more time than a VW labour charge for a diagnostic and MOT check  :wink:

cheaper to sell and buy one with

No  :cry:

The blowers work, but the air con doesn't.  Didn't notice when I was test driving it!
