RHD?? I think you mean LHD don't you?

No it was not offered in any LHD model and in order to get it to work it takes a bit.

There are a few people on here who have the digital climate systems but I have yet to hear of any of them getting it truly operational.

Not that terribly hard to get ahold of actually but they aren't cheap especially when no one I have seen yet can rig them to work...at all or like they are supposed to.

I can't remember who it was that got one but someone on this board had one...but that was a while back.

From what I know its a real bitch wiring it in since in the JDM cars the wiring color codes is different and there are added sensors for the unit and some othe stuff along the way.

I know for sure that the 5th Gen V6 in Taiwan has it!

Oh, I bet you meant LHD...

so then there is hope! i might goto taiwan this summer. i'll definately look into it if i do. it doesn't make sense why it can't be wired up and made to work properly. it'll probably take more than just the control unit and climate sensor, thats all. the unit looks very similar to the auto climate control in the 2nd gen legend. i'm willing to bet the electronics behind it are identical, or nearly identical.

It looks like the 4th gen steering wheels..but there are subtle differences..

OEM leather wrapped steering wheel, integrated H emblem with clear glossy cap covering it. On the cruise control buttons, the words are both in japanese and english...

subtle differences oh well...
