Default Is there a Head Unit that can do this?

Is there a touch screen that can run the heating and cooling controls also? That would be awesome, you could get rid of the dials and just have a screen running everything

I would like to see this one. In theory it is possible, but I have no clue where you would start on building one.

The cable operated controls would probably be near impossible......

its possible if you use a carputer. just not very easy. you would use servo's to run the hvac controls, but it would take some programing, lots of calibrating and a pita...
