I have an 06 Sports Edition and was just wondering, how difficult would it be to upgrade the climate control system to a Dual Zone?

I think it will be more trouble than it is worth but curious none the less, Any thoughts...

All it takes is the dual climate ac unit. I have one, and it's plug and play. I can't use it because it is for the 6-disc dash and mine is the single disc dash for my ddx8017.
 
Thanks for the info...time to start searching on Ebay.

I have an 06 Sports Edition with the single cd (non JBL) system. Are the AC control units different for different head units, ie Nav vs. 6 disc vs. Single CD?
 
Hatedon,

How much work is it to install? Do you have to take apart the entire dash? Would you like to sell the unit that you cant use?
 
You mean to tell me, it's as simple as replacing the control unit to gain "Dual Climate Control"?????

Wouldnt it have to have seperate fans or something? Im confused. My 06 SR5 with the basic AC control, could be swapped out for a dual climate control and everything else is in place to work with it just like a Limited?

Or am I missing something here?

If this is true, it's time to hit up the Toyota Heaven wrecking yard!!!!
 
I would think there would be more to it. You would need 2 temp sensors (one for driver, one for passenger), a set of baffles somewhere that would redirect the fan/air to the appropriate vents at the appropriate speed, and the controller. Overall, I don't think it would be a difficult mod, but getting all of the correct pieces could be difficult.
