If it could be done it most likely will be cheaper to sell your
Bongo and buy one with it already fitted.

However, if you wanted to bother, there is a little 12v thermostat unit you can buy that has a temp probe and an adjustable setting and could easily be wired in to control the aircon. But in reality the old 'Human Being Mk.1' that comes with a 'digit all' switch works fine for me 8)

I think yoiu are right. My Bongo has climate control but I still find myself adjusting it all the time!

Hi Steady
I had been thinking along those lines myself, but , on reflection, I thought it may be more problematical to control. I also find I switch the aircon off when overtaking trucks uphill....for that extra bit of speed. I don't know whether the auto system would like this too much.
