sorry aurick I ment the control panel
You can put the control panel in but it won't work unless the car came with factory climate control
You need to replace the whole under dash unit because the manual AC one does not have the necessary control motors (the ones that control the flaps).
Eh? Why the doors?
I remember an ex member who had a active Stilo who once retro fitted climate control from an ABARTH stilo. It was a right misson for him to do. Dash out hearted unit out and I even think he had to fit a new wiring harness in too. He must have been bored but he did it in the end but in my opinion not worth the hastle........ Unless of course your bored
On the Bravo you need to remove the front doors in order to get to some bolts that secure a reinforcement bar on top of the AC/heater unit.
Believe me.. 100% not worth it!!
Also, I left out a lot mote things that need to be removed, like the center console, the right and left front sill covers, the head unit and more.
Plus you will be pulling on wires to the steering servo motor and the body computer ...so possible problems.

Climate control is brilliant but isn't worth the risk. They're quite fragile systems and expensive and/or awkward to fix. Mine has issues that drive me nuts! I'd prefer standard controls any day of the week.
Well, that's where the ACTIVE is the best spec to have because it includes RELIABILITY.

Lmao. I suppose if you just want a basic no quibble car it's great, I didn't want that. I wanted blue and me more than anything.
Which has it's fair share of niggles too.
To be fair the climate control was something I wasn't fussed on and in my mind something costly too when and if it goes wrong.happy with my 3 standard knobs lol.
