a/c heat controls change to digital

[curfol]

Has anyone changed out the manaul a/c controls to digital in a older Sea Ray? Wondering if it is a DIY type situation and how costly?
Thanks

They sell a kit for this. I inquired a few years ago and I think it was around $500 to convert from the three knob to the digital pad. The kit enables you to use the existing cutout and it fits perfectly. It is pretty easy to do. You need to contact Cruisair dealer or perhaps cruisair directly for specifics. Check here...

BTW, I didnt do the switchover - stuck with "old reliable."

Good question- I was curious about that as well. I'd like to be able to keep the boat on a "dehumidify" setting all year.
I've got Marineair systems aboard.
Cruisair is also owned by Dometic- what's the diff??

Not exactly Frank. I have a SMXII on the forward stateroom unit :grin:
Frank Webster did once call me a "Luddite." But in a nice way!

Tobnpr, I'm not so sure there is a difference. I'd give them a call to be sure.

Marineair makes a kit of their own.
