GT86/BRZ Controls to FR-S
Does anyone think that it's possible to switch out the FR-S center controls for the GT86/BRZ? I REALLY wish that I had the dual control air/digital read out and the push start. I bothers me that they are just knobs. Also the BRZ has keyless entry!! If I would have known all of this I would have just bought a Subaru!!

I dont think dual climate control is as easy as replacing the center controls.. it would involve a way to direct hotter/colder air to the other vents.. and I think an extra AC fan as well. Highly doubt it is plug and play.
As for the brz.. should have done your research first! Those upgrades are very apparent with even a little research into both cars. |

it is possible just depend on how much you are willing to spend lol. if you want the conversion that bad, you gonna need a new harness, id box ecu for the smart access. and few sensor for the smart key along with the keys. one in cabin one in each door and the trunk. you will also need to change the steering column. all that for the smart access plus the climate control panel and the ecu for it... overall if you want it that bad its doable but better off spend that money on mods imo or trade it in for the subaru....

Personally, I've always had Scion cars, and I just like Scion. That's why I never even looked into Subaru. I have a guy that is super good at installing and will do it for next to nothing. I'd just need to buy the parts...

Something like this might be a little easier, once it's released.
