switch automatic for manual climate control?

Hello all,
I was wondering if it's possible to switch my 99 C43 automatic climate control head with the manual one that is in a 99 C230. I think the auto one SUCKS, and you can't control side to side individually.

I doubt it's plug and play, and the dash panel would need to be changed, but is it possible without too much BS?

The heater box and ducting also is different, so it is quite an involved project.

But it certainly is possible.

I can swap you the complete heater housing for a dual controlled eurospec 1993 W202 heater only!

I've already got the donor car, but from what Scorchie says it sounds like the pain isn't worth the gain-

Thanks for the info
